I still listen to music by playing mp3 files locally (on my laptop, phone, ipod).
My iPod shuffle is still working... but I'm looking for a decent replacement and I couldn't find any (the Victure mp3 player displayed in the post looks bulky and I'm not sure if the clip is good enough if you use it while running/doing sports)
- drdeadringer 5y agoI've been using a Sansa Clip for a number of years.
- Loughla 5y agoI've used my sansa clip since, 2009? It just works. It works in the rain, in my woodshop, in the basement, on a plane, everywhere. The battery takes a couple hours to charge, and lasts for weeks. And you can load so many songs on it that the shuffle feature is just as good as a streaming service.
- drewzero1 5y agoI've got an e260 with RockBox that I've had since new. They were (and are still) excellent mp3 players! Still use it sometimes but not as much now that I have all my mp3s on my phone. It uses the same 30-pin connector as the iPod, but it fits backwards and the connections are different.
- mburee 5y agoMaybe something that can play opus or other more modern codecs would be nice too
- csdvrx 5y agoSame size: Coconise MP3 player, USB-C, simple interface with bluetooth that works. Comes with a SD card of the advertised size that you can replace. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10000351147731.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10000351147731.html It's limited to 128kbs music files, but having a bluetooth that works flawlessly is more important to me.
