Random
Sampling Manila Bulletin -
Philippines
It could be what we iPod owner wannabe’s, who have remained such because of a
short budget, have been waiting for. The iPod Shuffle is the smallest on Apple’s
iPod line, not only in terms of capacity, but also physically. It’s about half
the size of a Nokia 8250, and it’s so light that it can hang around your neck
and feel as if you were just wearing a scapular.
The main problem with the Shuffle is that you can’t choose what song will play
next. Unlike other MP3 players that have digital displays, all that’s on the
Shuffle are buttons for play/pause, forward, back, and volume. Rather than
letting that be a weakness though, the Shuffle plays it up as its draw. Going by
the tag line “Life is Random,” it plays only in two modes, in the order that the
songs were uploaded, or, of course, shuffle mode. Those who want to be in total
control won’t be able to stand this setup, and it’s irritating to have to keep
skipping songs when there’s one particular song that you want to hear at the
moment. But otherwise, it’s fun to hear how the songs come out.Write Comment (0 Comments) |

Typepad.com
A relatively unknown Korean manufacturer has released the world's smallest (for
now) MP3 player, the MobiBlu DAH-1500. The DAH-1500 ...
In the '80s, there were tapes. Compact discs defined music in the '90s. Now,
five years into the 21st century, mp3 players are the way to transport music.
Increased student use of mp3 players might have social implications, as well as
a negative effect on hearing.
Katie Kuehn, a sophomore, said that working out in Ping Center was her main
reason for wanting an mp3 player.
"When I go to Ping, it doesn't skip at all," she said.
Kuehn also said her Audiovox mp3 player holds about 30 songs and is an easy way
to transport her music. She uses it almost every day and said she uses it while
she studies. Write Comment (0 Comments) |

More Paying Music Downloaders in US
eMarketer - New York,NY,USA
Exactly 11% of US consumers and nearly 50% of music
downloaders in the US, ages 12 and older, have paid for online music downloads,
reports Ipsos-Insight.
Ipsos-Insight surveyed 1,112 US consumers ages 12 and older in December 2004 to
find that 11% have paid for downloaded digital music and/or MP3 files, a number
which rises from a mere 2% in December 2002. Ipsos also finds that the same
amount of consumers, 11%, have participated in free file-sharing online, but
that this total has actually declined from 19% in 2002. Write Comment (0 Comments) |
