MP3 Players or CD Players?

[Paradigm]

I have one Mp3-Cd-Player, wich is imho the best:
You get many songs on 1 CD (around 200)
and you can search in the ID3-Tags for your favorite song...

Minidisc players are superior [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

At this point, CD's definitely. Most newer cd players also support MP3 files on cd as well, so you can feed a data cd in and get close to 11hrs of playback. It also gives you the flexibility of inserting you shiny new cd you just bought in the player immediately instead of waiting to extract the MP3s.

This may change though, I recently got interested in various wireless endevours involving the sharp Zaurus PDA, and the is mucho software for these things including playing MP3s, as well as stereo headphones. Storage is a problem, but the 5500D comes with 64mb of RAM, but it has an expansion slot for more SDRAM - and you can use the compact-flash port to mount an IBM 1GB microdrive. That microdrive, if used exclusively for MP3's could provide about 15hrs of uninterrupted entertainment!!

Interesting stuff...

a Diskman that plays Mp3 is the best compromise. but depends what you're doing. If you're going for a run, the CD player is out... you need MP3 so it doesnt jump. If you're on a plane or train or something where you can sit, go for the CD player with MP3 compatibility and choose between carrying 20 CDs or 1 CD burnt with 200 songs (but at lower sound quality).

EDIT: Sir Krustin - it looks like maybe an F14 (although the canopy looks short) but what is all the smoke ??? doesn't look like a missile hit ?

MP3 and this is why:

Originally posted by : MP3. Lord Lothar the MP3 player Ian has holds 10+ hours of songs. Which is quite a lot. I can download any basically any song I want, without wasting multiple cd's because of one corrupted song. So MP3 player it is.

I totally agree with Redblueflare.. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yep, its a Tomcat. The "smoke" is contrailing - this is what happens when you execute a high-gee turn at low-altitude in a humid environment. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
