- beAbU 3y agoI had a classic iPod mini that I modded with a 64GB CF card, so no more mechanical hard drive, and it had rockbox installed. It was the perfect music player, and I had it in the late 2000s. It even had DOOM on it!
- tetris11 3y agoI still use my Sanclip Plus because of rockbox. What a great project
- ZoomZoomZoom 3y agoHow come it haven't died still? They're are notorious for their internal memory crapping out.
- tetris11 3y agoHonestly, I use it only on big road trips I take a couple of times a year -- so it's not constant use, though it is regular use.

- thaumasiotes 3y agoThe music player I had in the early 2000s was also identical to the music player I wished I had. It was a Zen Stone; a tiny device with flash storage, a USB port, and an audio jack. I plugged it into a cassette tape adapter and used it to play music in my car. It had no screen, so most of the device was covered in buttons that could be easily used without looking at it. The company followed up with a sequel model, the Zen Stone II, that was worse in basically every way, a trend that more or less continues to this day. Every time someone puts a screen on a music player, they decide that using the music player should require looking at the screen. (As here, where the buttons are images shown on a touchscreen!) Why?
