272 km is a lot, I don't think I've done more than 120 in a day. I just got back today from a three day tour of the Chilterns, 135 miles over three days (50, 50, 35), though that included 8,000 feet of climbing

which was loving lovely without a phone or music, ok not lovely but i wish I hadn't spiked my phone in the rain

The SanDisk Clip is a loving awesome dedicated mp3 player, and it's probably going to be the only one available ten years from now.

Yep. It's the only one I use at the gym and got them for my kids too. Expansion memory and you somehow manage to break one, well $29 and amazon prime and put the old micro SD card in the new one.

sansa clips are good, i think the sport was a downgrade from the clip+ because you could install rockbox on the clip+ and it would play everything but sport is still a good buy. thanks.

I have an 80 GB iPod from like 10 years ago and amazingly the battery still holds a charge. I use it on road trips because I live in a part of the country with bad cell coverage. I put Rockbox on it almost immediately after I got it and never looked back; the stock interface was really nice, but the EQ was dumb and crippled and it just didn't sound very good.

Anyway, that's my mp3 player story. Smoke weed and rip flacs erry day.

flacs are dumb idiot poo poo for the same people who buy $5000 speaker cables, there is no discernable difference between a properly ripped 320k mp3 and flac and especially not when you play it though your unamplified 10 year old ipod

Seriously, I paid like $60 for a Motorola E which is a perfectly functional cellphone that I don't care about breaking. It's great, I can take it to the pool and listen to music without worrying about what would happen if I have to throw it at an annoying loving kid being obnoxious and it breaks.

agreedo. best buy recently had prepaid second gen moto Es for $30. just never activate them and you can enjoy a decent mp3 player / radio that can also run apps.

but does the Moto E weigh one ounce, and can be clipped anywhere? I didn't think so. :smug:

These are okay for the most part but when you get it open it up with a guitar pick or something and carefully solder down the 3 headphone jack contacts to the board because they put like an infinitesimal amount of solder on those 3 contacts and they tend to come loose and give you one ear effect.
You might also want to put a little bit of tape over the microSD card if you put one in because it doesn't have a cover, so just in case you accidentally click it out.

sandisk makes good mp3 players and made most of the models worth buying in the years in between mp3 players costing 400 dollars, apple controlling 90 percent of the market for no justifiable reason, and then cell phones replacing said devices

i bought two and both still work, actually ended up saving some files when a hd died because i had it on a sandisk mp3 player from 2003 or some poo poo
