CrackerWatson Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Hi all Given the recent demise of the Apple classic Ipod, I have had a look and cant see any large capacity units for sale. Do any of the heroic nerds out there have any suggestions of items to look at?

kaelvan Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Only found one so far:FiiO X5 High Resolution Lossless Music Playerhttp://www.amazon.com/X5-Resolution-Lossless-Music-Player/dp/B00I4Q9S32 Seems to have bit of flaws. Also, it's a money whore. Quote “There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.†~Paulo Coelho I'm a level 3 moon elf, who's an druid assassin.

kaelvan Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Also, this one has some potential.http://ponomusic.force.com/ccrz__ProductDetails?viewState=DetailView&cartId=08aa541f-a7ab-42f6-8148-e644243fe37c&sku=NY001&store=ponomusic Heard this one isn't badhttp://www.amazon.com/iBasso-DX90-Resolution-Connection-Distributor/dp/B00JRGLX3G Quote “There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.†~Paulo Coelho I'm a level 3 moon elf, who's an druid assassin.

Bernard Marx Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 If you already have a smartphone, see if it's sdxc compatible. You can get a 128gb sd card and throw plenty of music on that. (not quite a 160GB ipod classic, but then again, there's nothing saying you couldn't carry multiple cards if your collection's really big). 1 Quote Battle Log "Those who feel themselves despised do well to look despising.

Frost of the Gloaming Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 What works for me: I have downloaded all of my cd's and converted all of my albums onto a terabyte hard drive and use a 2gb Sansa Sandisk that I just clear and load up on music all the time, yes there are times that I'm looking for a certain album or group that's not on there but for the most part it works perfect for me, 30hrs of music gets me through the day.

I would definably consider doing that (I think I now have 200gb of music on my computer now).

Bernard Marx Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I think sdxc can theoretically go up to a terrabyte or two, just depends on how quickly they develop to it and whether there's a demand for it. I'm hoping trends toward 4k video cameras and large sensor camerast create that demand eventually. 1 Quote Battle Log "Those who feel themselves despised do well to look despising.

CrackerWatson Posted December 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Thanks for your comments folks! Looks like I am just going to go down the smart phone option. A lot of the units out there are pricey for what they are (and store) and I believe my phone will take some substantial sized cards.

TheOtherScott Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Looks like you can get up to 32gb in there, plus the 8 that it comes with stock. I'd assume half of that 8 is system files, though, since my HTC Desire 601 has around the same and is probably comparable specs-wise.
