Disney MP3 Player?

[C.Ann]

DD was telling me about a Disney MP3 player she saw at Walmart a few weeks ago.. She said something about 3 different ones - and "screens" or something - with Hannah Montana; Pirates of the Carribean; and something else I can't remember..

Does anyone have one of these - or know anything about them?

Thanks!

Was it a Mix Max? http://disneyshopping.go.com/webapp...d=-1&categoryId=15006&catalogFromSearch=10002

I seem to remember a lot of DISers getting them for their kids last Xmas, so hopefully this bump will help.

Yes - I think that's the one..

Anyone know if they're any good?

There's also the MP3 player, Disney's Mix Stick. I don't know anything about the Mix Max, other than knowing that it plays audio and video.

I got the silver Mix Stick for DD a couple of years ago, when iPods were becoming very popular. It was less expensive and a nice entry-level player. One of the biggest cons is that there is no display to tell you what song is playing or what songs are stored on the player (unless the unit is connected to a computer).

DD upgraded to a bigger MP3 player last Christmas and I happily claimed the Mix Stick as my own. It's perfect for me to take on walks or to the gym.

I have a Mix Stick that I bought right after Christmas and I love it! I don't need an expensive iPod that holds thousands of songs, so this was perfect for me. I use it on walks and while vacuuming. I've had no problems with it.

My DH bought me the Tinker Bell Mix Max a while back and I really like it...It fits in my pocket so I can carry it around and watch movies while I wait (in lines for example- great when the parks are busy, lol!). I have not used any of the music clips, just the movies, and the battery lasts a good long while (so far anyway...I have a bad karma history with all rechargeable batteries.).

We got our dd a Nightmare Before Christmas Mix Stick last Christmas. She loves hers and has not had any problems with it.

I'm confused when people talk about "clips".. Does that mean you can't download music from other sources like you would with a regular MP3 player?

(Obviously I know nothing about MP3 players.. )

My DDs got them for Christmas. DD10 got the blue Little Mermaid one and DD8 got the purple Tinker Bell one. They have withstood field trips, vacations, etc. without any problems. And DD8 is rough on electronic stuff.

You can buy "clips" with preloaded songs on them, but you can also download songs onto them easily. DH put their favorite CDs on them, so we only had to carry the tiny MP3 player instead of a case of CDs and a CD player. It was so nice

Thank you.. That's exactly what I needed to know.. One more question - are the "clips" with the preloaded songs just Disney songs?

I think they are just Disney stuff...although there's a pretty wide variety. HSM of course, and other pop songs for kids like "Girlz rock."

I think they are just SD cards with the songs already loaded. They cost about $15. DH thought it would be better to go ahead and buy the CD, then they can play that "out loud" on the stereo at home, and we can load it onto their MP3 player too. Actually, I think there's a way to plug MP3 players into speakers, but we haven't progressed to that point in our technological lives -lol.
