 I use an MP3 player and the one I have is the Sony but would get another if I ever need one.I have hundreds of cd's to use but with this player your limited to use what they want you to to download as far as music and it is per song where as the Best Buy Raposody you pay monthly and can donwload and delte to your hearts content.I thought I could do this with the one I have and guess you cannot if I had known that would have bought another

I bought a mp3,4 & 5 player on e-bay has 16 gig of memory with an sd slot that will do another 16 gig. Off the wall brand name RIZONE but it was only a $0.99 bid with $28.00 for shipping. Works great once you figure out the controls. They didnt send a manual. Needed a better set of earphones. But overall really happy with it.

Kid on the way, you won't be riding. No music needed.

I have an iPod that I got for Christmas several years ago with a pair of Skull Candy earbuds and love it!!  I can turn it up to a good level and still hear what is going on around.

I don't listen to music when I ride, I like my singing so much I just listen to myself.
