MP3 Players for sport

from MP3sRock.com


Using Mp3 Players for sport, whether we are jogging or working out in the gym we like to do it to music. To our favorite music or music we've chosen for what we're doing - possibly vigorous music for aerobics, soothing music for weightlifting, or a good beat for jogging, snowboarding or skiing, whatever works for you, is the best for you.

One of the easiest ways to carry that music is with a suitable MP3 player
that is light, compact and loaded with your choice of music.

Mp3 players for sport, as we all know over many years people have carried radio's, cassette players and CD players while they were exercising. All of these were either awkward to carry, they were limited by the length of tape or CD, or the CD would skip, or the radio reception was varied or nonexistant.

The MP3 player has changed a lot of that but not all, it has become noticeable that some MP3 players are best, not used for vigorous activity. Over the years we've been told that computer hard drives are temperamental and deserve to be looked after. Shaking or dropping them, we've been told will damage them, as a minimum cause bad sectors and ultimately cause loss of data.

Then what happens - we are sold MP3 players that are run from hard drives (spinning disc's). Yes, we know they have shock protection built in, but this is so we don't hear the skipped music tracks - not to stop the hard drive from being damaged.
I was discussing these thoughts with a client last week, and was interrupted by a computer technician, I thought whoops what have I said wrong, he then confirmed what I was saying as he had replaced his MP3 player hard drive twice in 2 years. He had put it down to heavy use as he is always playing it, and not realised the real problem until after a discussion with work mates. Now he uses a solid state MP3 player for his 25Km runs and has had no problem with either the new unit or his hard drive MP3 player over the last 18 months at all.

My advice is to only use solid State MP3 players for sport some choices below that will carry from 2 to over 300+ hours of music (from 128Mb to 8Gig of storage). These units have no moving parts, therefore shock movement will not damage the music quality, or the life of the MP3 player.
