Hey all,
I'm broke so I'm not asking for myself, but a friend of mine (Jacob Greig,
used to be on TFUG before he got a great job and moved away, so I'm sure
some of you know him) was asking about what MP3 players work well under
Linux. I didn't know, so I thought I'd ask here.
What he wants is:
* MP3 Player with reasonable size storage (pref. hard drive ala
iPod or that Gateway one)
* Acts as a USB/Firewire mounted drive under Linux (so he can
drop MP3 files in there, or anything else he may want to
back up)
* Plays music reasonably well (I've heard rumblings about the
recent offerings from Dell that don't sound too good)
* OGG support would also be a big plus.
So, anyone here know anything about it?
