My sister, best friend, and I all have the Sansa e280 MP3 Player and they all constantly freeze and get stuck in loops or glitches. My MP3 did it first (when we first got them) and i took it back and got another one. All 3 (4) do the same thing. They can get stuck for days, and I am just waiting for one of them to break completely. I’m suprised to find no complaints about similar problems on the internet. Has anyone else experienced problems?

MP3 players are the latest gadgets in the market making waves. Especially, liked by youngsters and working people, these tiny music players are a wonder to keep. Hundreds of iTunes can be loaded and played in a MP3 list. The good thing about a MP3 player is that you can easily categorize the music, make separate lists, shuffle them and enjoy the music for hours. 

This simple and sleek, small strip sized player come in different variations. The most basic mp3 players would include a slot in which you can save hundreds of songs; play, stop and rewind buttons and a slot of voice recording.  The design and color of this type of MP3 player would be plain and simple. The most common color of a simple MP3 player would be Black. 

With new technology coming every day, MP3s’ too evolved. They grew from being simple audio player to complex multimedia device. Now they come with colorful displays and also play movies. Some of them can also record directly from TV or download and share content over Wi-FI.

Generally MP3 players can be categorized as flash memory players, hard disk players, and cellphone in-built MP3 players. All of these come with some of the most common features like volume limiter, a larger and wider display, video playback, controls like equalizer and FM radio tuner.

Much advanced MP3 players come in bright colors and have a greater storage space. You can also find MP3 players in top branded iPods. MP3 players found in iPods have much wider use and are also more popular than the simple ones. MP3 players in iPod have advantages of flashy and designer skins, Windows XP OR Professional platform, different music files like Wav, AIFF, and AAC. With the iPod features of video player and photograph watch, MP3 players get an added life. 

Whichever MP3 player you take, do consider revising your checklist to buy a MP3 player. See to it that the weight of the MP3 is not too much, for all the good reasons extra bulk is not a good thing. Look out the headphone quality; after all you are buying MP3 to listen to music – if quality of sound is not good, there is no point in buying the MP3 player.  Lastly, do check the battery consumption hours written in the fine print. The longer your MP3 player can run, the better you will enjoy the music!

A portable mp3 player makes it so easy to take your favorite songs with you almost anywhere that you want to go and under almost any conditions. Unlike CD players that have to read the digital music from a CD, mp3 players are much smaller and more compact. That’s because the data storage devices used are much smaller than CDs, so the players can be tucked into a pocket of your shirt or pants and be almost invisible as you listen. But there are already many models to choose from, so here are some top picks from examining online portable mp3 player reviews and customer feedback:

1. In the flash memory category, which is the smallest and lightest of mp3 players, almost everyone still favors the Apple Ipod Nano even though some other great players are starting to provide more competition. But Apple dominates in the mp3 player area and the Nano shows why. It has an impressive 2GB of memory which can hold around 500 songs. and is compatible with both Windows and Mac computers. The firmware is upgradeable which is also a plus to keep you up to date with the latest changes in the mp3 field, and has equalizer presets to help you adjust the sound to your liking. The display is especially good even in low light situations, so this model gets a solid pick.

2. In the micro-drive player category the RCA Lyra is a fine choice with 5GB of file storage. It is also compatible with both Mac and Windows and has equalizer presets for customized sound. It’s display is not quite up to the Apple standards, but otherwise, it’s a solid, quality player.

3. As far as hard drive mp3 players are concerned the nod again has to go to Apple with the Apple Ipod. Apple totally dominates this category selling almost 90% of the high capacity hard drive mp3 players on the market. The Ipod has 30GB of storage space and that is enough to store the entire song collection of many people. It’s display is again very good in all conditions, is compatible with both Windows and Mac, and comes with equalizer presets for custom sound. It also has the ability to play video files as well, with excellent picture and sound quality.

As you can see from the above list Apple is still producing the best portable mp3 players, and that is certainly reflected in the high number of units already sold to very satisfied customers. Expect that in the months and years ahead more challengers will emerge with better and better quality and features to give Apple a good run for the money, but at the time of this writing, Apple is still the best overall bet as voiced by many portable mp3 player reviews and consumer feedback as well.

I would like to sign up for Rhapsody to put music on my mp3 player. My family has a total of three mp3 players. Can we each use the same paid account to transfer songs to them?

An MP3 player is an electronic device that plays compressed audio files. That being said, it’s also the most popular way that today’s teens and adults transport their music (and talk programming) around. A fraction of the size of a typical CD player, it slides into pockets and can dangle from your neck on a chain. Don’t you miss carrying around that huge boom box? An MP3 player is extremely portable, streamlined and lightweight and is available in a variety of sizes, shapers and colors. An MP3 player is also a very affordable way to store and carry your favorite tunes around as you head for school, work or play. You can also listen to that special podcast or talk show each day that gives you the information that lifts your spirits.

Most major electronic brands like Panasonic, Phillips, Sony and others carry different models and styles of MP3 players. Visiting electronic stores will offer delighted consumers a dozen or more different varieties. Many styles and models are available at your local discount stores as well, and in a wide variety of price ranges. When shopping for an MP3 player, try to get beyond the color you want (yes, even the hot pink one) and look at what each model and style offers and it’s compatibility with other devices.

The most important thing to consider when purchasing an MP3 player is its ease of use. It doesn’t do any good to have a cool $200 MP3 player if you have trouble downloading music onto the device. Narrow your choices to a few selections and then go online to visit discussion and forum boards to find out what people are saying about the brand of MP3 player you’re considering. Advertising and glitzy commercials are intriguing, but it’s word of mouth and user experience when it comes to an MP3 player. Cheap doesn’t necessarily mean bad either, so again, look at the specs when you’re shopping around.

A Solid State MP3 player has no moving parts, making it the best thing for active people to cart their music libraries around. This type of MP3 player offers much better ‘readability’ and uninterrupted play, whether you’re jogging, skateboarding or hitting the ski slopes. Designed with lightweight storage in mind, an MP3 player can fit into a pocket or be worn around the neck. Many electronic brand names carry combinations of traditional CD and MP3 playing capabilities. Most types of MP3 player can store hundreds or thousands of songs. Due to their durable, yet lightweight designs, the MP3 player is the most popular electronic gadget up there with the Bluetooth and the cell phone. These days, it’s common to see people of all ages hurrying to and fro with earphones connected to MP3 players as they work hard and play hard.

Remember that when shopping for an MP3 player, check the capabilities of each model and do some comparison-shopping. Price ranges of most MP3 players make them affordable to just about anyone, but the amount of storage in each different model is a deciding factor for many when it comes to the right MP3 player to suit their musical tastes.

I’m currently looking at the LG UX260. I thought since MP3 players are so expensive it’d be best to just combine both the phone and the player but I’m worried about the sound quality or just the quality in general. Anyone know anything about this phone. Or what do you think about music phones at all?

I’m looking at an mp3 player, and I’m trying to decide if i want to buy the refurbished one. It is $180 compared to the $220 one new. I have always believed that refurbished is just as good as new, but I want your opinion. Is it worth it?
