This is a switch-adapted MP3 player that is
also a 2
GB USB drive, all in one! (For those of you new to the
world
of MP3 players, they are simple, battery-operated devices that
play
files, with a .mp3 extension, that
contain
music. You get
these files from either 'ripping' them from a CD yourself
(easy), or
downloading from the Internet (either paid of 'shared').
Once
you've put music on the player, through the direct plug-in USB
connector of the drive, you can then remove the player from
the
computer for listening.)

Use
one

turn on/off the unit and toggle between Play and
Pause,
and the other for cycling through your tunes.

Don't be afraid of MP3's! It's easy. They are just
files,
in a specific 'format' that players, such as mine, can read
and play
music from! That's it. There is no 'magic' or
confusion
necessary. If you're from the cassette generation, don't
worry! And if you get stuck, I can always help you!
My MP3 Player-Drive
plays
unlocked MP3's available from
online music shops or downloaded songs that you can easily
convert
through iTunes, Napster, or most
software, including Windows Media Player, where you can also
'rip'
music from audio CD's.
Because of the choice I
made in
models, the MP3 Player-Drive is also a USB flash drive with
which you
can
move files between computers. This type of device has
replaced
floppies. You can fit thousands of files on my MP3
Player-Drives!
And the USB connector is built-in! No cable necessary (Yes, a
cap is
also included).
Yes, it comes with earbuds, and an AAA battery.
