Brennan JB7 80GB Digital Jukebox

I love gadgets like this. I've got a tape to mp3 gadget that I've nto installed into my PC yet - but this is what you really want - Brennan JB7 80GB Digital Jukebox which allows you to store up to 1200CDs!!

The Brennan JB7 is a brilliant way to store and listen to all you CDs. You can choose which tracks or albums to play without even getting off your backside.

You'll find yourself listening to music again. You'll find you like Jamiroquai again - or not! it's just a great way to get music going in your garden. If people bring Cd's round for a party simply whack them on there (is that legal?).

It's just £299.99 from Adavanced MP3 Players.

iPod 5th Best MP3 Player! Sony The Best!

The fantastic Reevoo have produced a list of the top five mp3players by customer satisfaction.

It was a shock considering every man and his dog would mention "iPod" when asked to name an mp3 player. But the truth is that iPods aren't the best mp3 players, they're just the coolest. But everything that becomes too-popular will eventually falter.

Hats off to Sony, they've created the two best mp3 players!

1st - 9.8/10 - Sony NWE016BC - it had top marks for value for money and sound quality. It even beat the new ipod ;-) From Currys.

2nd - 9.7/10 - Sony 3gb NWZA816 - it's nice seeing Sony take the top two awards. Buy from Electric Shopping - £94.07.

3rd - 9.4/10 - Hitachi DMP20 2GB Black - this is more for people that like an easy to use mp3 player or one with a long battery life. Buy from Dixons - £29.99.

4th - 9.2/10 - Samsung YP-P2JCB 8GB Black - people overall liked it's design and features, but they weren't too impressd with its value for money. Buy from Dixons - £124.05.

5th - 9.2/10 - The new green Apple iPod Nano 8gb didn't score as highly as many would have thought. People didn't like that they thought it could only use iTunes on it. It came 5th because 100% of people would recommend the Samsung, but only 96% of reviewers would recommend the iPod! Buy from: Dixons - £111.68, Advanced MP3 Players - £119, Woolworths - £129.

WI-A608 Portable Media Player

I'm getting really fed up of all these crap mp3 players coming out of China. Of course they make some absolutely fantastic MP3 Players - but why bother making a 128mb PMP?

Well Winstar have with this thing that's supposed to look like a key-chain. It has got an ebook reader, integrated FM radio and a dictionary to translate English to Chinese - wooo!

I'll give it a miss!

Scuba MP3 Player - Underwater Tunage!

I love it how some people just have too much time on their hands that they're determined to get us to listen to music wherever we are. Like really, under the sea! There's been a few of them that have been designed to catch us on our most solitary moments such as the Water resistant MP3 Player and the waterproof iPod case. Byt why do we need to listen to music when we're scuba-diving? Isn't this a perfect opportunity to get away from the world??

It'll probably cost around £75 here but it only holds 128mb of music and uses AA batteries - how many do they think they'll sell?

Apple's New iPod Touch Screen

This patent from Apple shows that they may be trying to get more interaction on their iPod MP3 player and iPhone than before. It looks pretty neat - but not sure how they'll manage it. I suppose that's why they do things and I write about it!
