Are you already connected to an mp3 player? What mp3 player are you using? Are you satisfied with your mp3 player performance? Hoping to get more value with your money? What is your dream or wish specification of an mp3 player? Do you just enough with an I-Pod?

Well, that are some of the questions which I would like to answer it myself. I would like to give a thoroughly review of every mp3 players and mp3 gadgets ever exist.

Nowadays, there are too many mp3 players manufactured by almost every electronic manufactures. The most famous is of course, I-Pod from Apple. Another brand which is quite well known after I-pod is Zen, a product of Creative Technology.

Although an mp3 player is known as an mp3 player, actually it can play many formats of digital files.It is commonly known as mp3 player just because of the ubiquity of the digital audio format, and the idea of the digital media player might be rooted from mp3 file which is tremendously smaller than a normal audio format.

The time when you have to bring a bulky walkman are already over.

Other than mp3 file format, an average mp3 player can play WMA and WAV. Above from average mp3 player can also play AAC, AC3, OGG and ecetra.

The latest product also can play a video file. Normally, the size will be a little bigger to put a large size screen, from 1.5 inches to 2.7 inches. Sometimes it's called an MP4 player. Usually it can play AVI, WMV and ASF video file format.

Smallest mp3 players usually are from the flash-based player, which store the digital files in a flash media. Normally, this type of players have limited storage size because of technology limitation at this time. An example of this mp3 player is Ipod Nano.

There are also hard-disk based mp3 player. Its keep the digital file in a hard-disk. Relatively, had more storage capacity, from 1.5GB to 100GB depending on it's hard drive technology. Apple Ipod and Creative Zen are popular example of this type of mp3 player.

Do you still remember Discman? Modern discman can play mp3 (and WMA) files also. Commonly known as CD mp3 player. I think a CD mp3 player is most suitable to be used in cars.
