Mp3 Player

[ERICS MUM]

I thought I had posted this thread already but can't find it (must have been on that other site ). Please forgive me if duplicated.

I want an MP3 player with enough memory to hold a couple of audio books which are about 11 hours long each. I dont want to spend more than about £60 (cheapskate!) as its only really for the plane. Any recommendations?

Also I have seen some with an SD slot presumably to take an SD card (!!), but how does it work, how to load songs etc onto an SD card?

My question is: what size memory do I need? Will 2gb be enough?

Also, what is the difference between MP3 and WMA files?

thanks

Linda

You can pick up quite a few MP3 players for under £60. Try looking at the Sony one's. Not too sure how much space an 11 hour book would take up.

If you get one with an SD card you'll just load the card up from your computer as you would an MP3 player attached.

The difference between MP3 and WMA is the way the music is compressed.
