Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, February 15, 2008, 14:48:01 My trusty old iPod is on it's last legs. It's scratched to fuck and the battery only last 4 hours or so which is shit for when I'm working a 9 hour day.
I'm not bothered about video or picture or any funny shit like that, just something that plays music. I need something 50GB+ because I have a lot of music! Prefer something fairly compact as well.

What happened with that? Lets just say the Trade Descriptions act could come in handy. Basically advertised the product as Samsung and then in small print somewhere else said it was unbranded = heap of junk. Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, February 15, 2008, 15:07:06 I did wonder why it was so cheap
Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Luci on Friday, February 15, 2008, 15:09:40 There were perfectly legit samsung ones for the same price elsewhere so thats not really the issue. Its the fact it was misleading advertising.

Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Peter Venkman on Friday, February 15, 2008, 15:40:05 50gb bugger me I don't own enough to fill more than 20gb and I have 15,000 songs :shock:
I think thats about 900 or so albums in total. You must have a vast collection Sam. Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, February 15, 2008, 15:44:54 I'm a hoarder, it's in my blood. I hate throwing things away, even if it's useless.
I've got tonnes and tonnes of stuff I don't even really listen to, but it's nice to have it there just incase :D Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, February 15, 2008, 16:02:50 Anyway, how can you get 15,000 songs into 20gb???
If you take that average size of an MP3 as 3.5mb your 15,000 songs work out as a good 50gb worth of music. Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: jayohaitchenn on Friday, February 15, 2008, 16:03:43 bit rate.
Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, February 15, 2008, 16:17:57 Ofcourse. Most of my stuff is at 192kb/s, that'll be why it takes up so much space.
Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: jayohaitchenn on Friday, February 15, 2008, 16:18:57 wma's are even smaller than mp3's as well.
Title: Recommend me a new MP3 player Post by: Peter Venkman on Friday, February 15, 2008, 16:20:18 I record all my mp3's at 128k as i dont notice the difference unless I crank up the volume, some of my older ones are from vinyl and that only needs 96k bit rate.
