AmaroK is a step up for Linux audio
players
03/14/2005 04:05 PM

With the release of amaroK 1.2 last month, I finally found the Linux music player I've been wanting. When I moved to Linux full-time about two years ago, the only software that I missed from Windows was a quality audio player. Linux audio players lacked features like cover downloads, smart playlists, or easy burning to CD. Even worse, with a large collection of more than 10,000 tracks, the Linux players generally locked up when I tried to load them all, or at least slowed to an unbearable crawl. AmaroK has all of the basic features of modern Windows audio players, and some features that I haven't seen in any other player.

ELECTRONIC devices have been cutting the cord for years, with one notable exception: portable music players. From the earliest Walkman to the latest fashion-accessory MP3 player, music on the go has generally meant cables trailing from ears to pocket or purse. But a short-range communications technology based on magnetism may mean those days will finally be on the wane.

Panasonic D-snap Audio Portable Players


Panasonic D-snap Audio Portable Players 03/19/2005 02:45 AM

portable_panasonic.jpg image

Panasonic introduced a few portable audio players yesterday that we forgot to mention (although they leaked way back in October), in the "D-snap Audio" line. We'll start with the "SV-SD100V" and "SV-SD90" square-shaped players with SD card slot (and only an SD card slot). They also have a mirrored organic EL display, and compatibility with MP3, WMA and AAC. In fact, the SV-SD100V throws in an FM tuner and voice recorder.

Also announced were the "SV-MP720V" and "SV-MP730V." Their interesting "two block" design actually won Panasonic a design award. The two units vary only in capacity, color variations and price. Both are MP3 and WMA compatible and have an FM tuner/voice recorder you probably won't ever use. A sort of disappointing 10-hour battery life on these.

Whoa. People I know are in the Apple Music store. I can pay to download last year's Fray Cafe and the 2001 Fray too (I can buy Lance Arthur and Mena Trott for 99 cents!). The Brad Sucks album is there too (psst: you can download it from his site for free, and it's unencrypted or buy the CD direct from him like I did). I even see a search for "Scott Andrew" is turning a song up from the Fray CD, with hopefully more to come.

joybee_180_102.jpg image

Two new mobile players in BenQ's Joybee line, the Joybee 102 and the Joybee 180 (pictured right). The 102 is billed as the world's smallest, a moderately-contested title that we'll let those to whom size matters sort out, and comes in 128MB and 256MB versions and three different colors. It is also interesting to note that along with Windows and MacOS, the Joybee is specifically listed as support Linux.

The Joybee 180 is slightly more interesting, with a built-in FM transmitter/receiver/recorder, interchangeable face plates, and a 'walkie-talkie' feature -- no idea if it can communicate with any other devices besides other Joybees. It beats its little brother in battery life, too, with the Joybee 180 getting 15 hours compared to the Joybee 102's 8.
