My mother wanted an MP3 player (she's barely computer literate) and didn't want to spend a lot of money on one. She had a $50 limit.
I Googled "Mac-Compatible MP3 players" and the least expensive option was the Sansa Clip.
They now have a "+" model with some minor feature changes and INSTANT MAC COMPATIBILITY
After reading the very positive reviews on CNET.com we drove down to Radio Shack and picked out a red 4GB model for $45 (she blew the other $5 on an extended warranty who am I to argue? She had the car keys).
This thing is pretty damn sweet. It opens on the Mac desktop just like any other USB flash drive. You open the drive's MUSIC folder and simply drag 'n drop/cut and paste your tunes in. That's it. SWEET!!!!!
Lots of cool features including time/date, "to-go list" of your favorite songs, delete feature, and you can add a micro SD card. You can even buy those ones with pre-loaded music if you wish (SlotRadio). It has record capability (might be nice for recording lectures).
The only downside is the earbuds. No one likes them but you can get anything you want to replace them.
This thing is one hell of a deal for the price. Gotta believe it's also Linux-compatible. I'm gonna find out. ETA and it certainly is Linux-Compatible! opens and loads music on my parent's Dell/Linux Mint 7 the same as my Mac. Cool!!!!  |
