[H1370]How To Make An Mp3 Player
by Mark Thompson, Mar

The first thing to consider is the amount of storage available. At the lower end of the market a 512mb to 1Gb player will generally hold up to 200 songs. If you have a large music collection then you should look for Devices that offer at least 20 GB's of storage. In general every 10 GB's will hold around 2,900 MP3 files

The next thing to consider is portability; if you have an active lifestyle then you will need a player that is small and compact. If you intend to use your player whilst jogging or whilst training in the Gym then a flash based system will be a better choice as they contain no moving parts and therefore won't skip.

The type of interface is the next thing to consider, will the interface be easy to access and use on the move or will it require 100% of your attention to choose your songs. This is one area that is often overlooked and is one of the major areas of dissatisfaction among users.

The final area to consider is how the device is powered, many MP3 players come with built in rechargeable batteries, whilst these are very convenient and can last for a long time, if you are not able to recharge them or don't have access to a computer with a usb port you then you will need to wait to charge the player up.

The best deals for MP3 players are available online but before you buy make sure you know what you need. The right MP3 player is an excellent buy and will remain in use for many years, the wrong one will soon be consigned to the bottom drawer.


If you're in the market for an MP3 player, make sure you read player reviews before opening up your wallet and buying the first player that catches your fancy. Reviews are valuable tools as they give you information on the various players available on the market and help you narrow down the player that suits your needs and budget. The reviews are written by consumers like you as well as experts whose main job is to test out the different portable audio devices and write about their findings and experience.

You'll discover that MP3 player reviews come in different styles. You'll come across player reviews in table form: the functions of each player are marked into categories so you can look across the table to see which player offers you the most functions that fit your needs. Other reviews of players include explanations of the different features as well as the opinions of the person reviewing the products. The best reviews are those that present both. By combining the two types of reviews, you can easily see the advantages and disadvantages of a particular portable audio player at a glance, and go on to read a more in depth review.

The good MP3 player review includes the price of the player. Price is typically one of the top criteria that affects a consumer's initial decision in selecting a product. It's usually best to have the price or price range mentioned at the beginning of the review, not after it. Imagine reading a review that builds up an MP3 player so much that you literally want to buy it, but when you get to the bottom of the page, you find out that the price is way beyond what you can afford. Consumers generally know that the expensive players are high quality players, but not all consumers can afford to buy the high-end players, which is why there are a lot of inexpensive digital audio players (dap) with different features to cater to different budgets and needs.

Find MP3 player reviews that have detailed information on the performance of the players and compare them with similar devices. Focus on those reviews that provide information on sound quality. The reliable reviews are those that demonstrate that the players have been thoroughly tested. Keep in mind that the sound quality differs not just from one dap to another, but also from within the same player when different music is played. For instance, sound quality is affected by additional bass or faster beats. There are also players whose sound quality differ from one another based on where you happen to use them. For instance, the sound quality may differ when jogging and when you're in a busy street. Sound quality is also affected by the speakers or headphones used, so good player reviews would also include information on compatible speakers and headphones.

When you're shopping for an MP3 player, one of the things you should consider is portability. Players come in a variety of sizes and weight and the review should include both the dimension and weight of the unit. Along with dimensions and weight, look for information telling how long the play-life is for the unit and how long it takes to recharge the cell.

In addition, usability should also be reviewed as button layout and software interface make some daps easier to use than others. If it's your first time to buy a portable audio device, you'll want one that is easy to use. If you're a veteran, you'll probably want one that has features you find yourself wishing your current player had.
