I like to call my sister as a technowizard since she knows a lot of information about technologies today like bluetooth, advanced wireless fidelity, and Mp3 players. Sometimes I envy this quality of hers because I really want to learn about this stuff. It's just that I can't seem to understand it all. The forte of my sister is dealing with Mp3 players. She knows about the latest Mp3 ringtones, accessories, and news. She knows everything and anything about Mp3's.
My sister likes to buy Mp3 players and accessories. Last night, she bought the Super Mp3 Converter. This baby, she told me, transforms any audio files to wave, Ogg, windows media audio, Vqf, AC3 (VOB), and Mp3 formats. My sister said that she likes this Mp3 converter because it's easy to use and it's highly functional. This converter is able to convert many different types of formats in one time. So whether you want to convert an Ogg or Mp3 at the same time, the super Mp3 can do it.
The super Mp3 converter is really superb since it can convert audio files in a fast manner. It also has a supporting batch converter that allows you to transform any different files together. Aside from these cool features, Super Mp3 Converter also enables its users to playback past music from their files. With these beneficial features, I will definitely buy one just like my sister's.

 So far, the Apple iPod is still the leader of the mp3 player pack. Each time news of an iPod killer comes along, we got our ears perked up. Sometimes, a new player makes waves, but as soon as the hype dies down, the features of the newcomer also tends to disappear into oblivion. Witness the wacky Creative Zen. It is powerful, but not as intense as iPod's capabilities. This year saw the emergence of new products ready to bash the iPod - from Toshiba to Samsung to Sony. Is there hope for a new kid called Samsung SBH-300 Bluetooth?
Sunday, May 13. 2007
Not so many have punched their fingers on this bluetooth iPod phenomenon. But Apple is now vying for the bone on this one, since the Samsung SBH-300 exhibits new features that can match Apple's white handheld. For example, the Samsung SBH-300 features a 262k color OLED LCD display, an FM tuner, a voice recorder, and a Bluetooth A2DP stereo for a humble 2GB flash unit. It has 2GB of Flash memory and supports mp3 format along with image files. The 2GB of Flash memory can still be installed with a Micro SD card slot.
Saturday, May 12. 2007
Samsung's SBH-300 comes with a USB data cable, a necklace strap, earphones equipped with inline mic, and volume control. It can also handle phone calls when linked with another handset that supports Bluetooth. It's quite small, and I must say I'm impressed with its features. There's no doubt, though, that it competes more with the Creative Zen rather than the Apple iPod. The reason? It hasn't crossed the "killer iPod" hurdle to the finish line just as yet.

 Before I met Anne (my mp3 player), I didn't appreciate mp3 players and other accessories associated with it. For me, it's a waste of money since it can only impair your hearing capacity. Besides, I have a disc player and bulks of cds that can entertain me. But then again, mp3 players are convenient, compact, and handy that lets you experience music. It even saves your files. Its great features enticed me in buying this product. Right now, I'm so addicted to it that I always buy all accessories related to it. Just recently, I bought an MP3 Wave Converter because reviews say it's good.
Thursday, May 10. 2007
It's very practical and beneficial to buy an Mp3 Wave Converter since it can transform your wave files to the format of mp3 and mp3 to wave format. It can also be used as an editor for MP3 ID3 Tag. Aside from it's editing and converting functions, Mp3 Converter allows its users to play all wave and mp3 files. The features of Mp3 Wave Converter are truly great as it performs multiple tasks. For mp3 fanatics out there, Mp3 Wave Converter is definitely a must have.

A lot of people keep asking me why I bought a simple gadget for my mp3 player when I can use the money to buy other relevant stuff like delicious gourmet food. They thought that I'm one crazy lunatic for buying mp3 accessories like the mp3 wave converter. I explained to them that it's good to buy this product since it can allow me to play my files whether they're wav or mp3 format everywhere I go. I can even connect with my friends online. The features are good and suitable for my lifestyle. That's why I don't think it's a waste to buy Mp3 Wave Converter.

My younger sister is fascinated in downloading any music in the internet. She wants the latest ringtone and music she discovers in the Internet. In fact, she has a ringtone of Rick Ross' hit, "Hustlin." This song by the Miami rapper is the first-ever ringtone which received platinum status in the music industry. According to my sister, about one million people hit this ringtone; that is why it's on top of the ringtone charts. My sister even told me that the ringtone became platinum first before his album did. Isn't that ironic?
Monday, May 7. 2007
I don't know who the hell Rick Ross is, but my sister who is very fond of music told me that he's one of the rising Miami rappers today. She said that his songs are great and she can relate to his music. I don't really like rap music, but I begin to appreciate the guy when I listen to my sister's ringtone Hustlin. I'm hooked with his music as well as his ringtones. I even do research about him in the Internet and I found out that he is six feet two inches tall. He weighs around three hundred pounds.
Sunday, May 6. 2007
 Last July 28, 2006, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has announced that Hustlin is the first-ever ringtone that hit one million, making it on their platinum hitlist. Rick Ross has even commented that ringtones is one of the means in which he could channel his music to his fans. He is very glad to find out that one million people around the globe carry his hit song Hustlin in their ringtones. He even praised the beauty and technology that ringtones have, saying it can help musicians like him get their music closer to the audience.

Whenever I'm at work, I usually drink coffee and put on my Creative Zen Vision player. This is the latest innovation that Creative has produced. I like this player because it has everything I need in a player. Anywhere I go I can carry this light compact baby while watching my favorite Spanish movies or while listening to the latest music. It's very convenient and relaxing to have a Creative Zen Vision during work as it helps to reduce stress. It also spurs ideas and thoughts that I need to write in an article.

Music, memory storage, films and photos are the four greatest components that Creative Zen Vision offers it's users. With this player, you can watch one hundred twenty hours of nonstop movies, listen to AM and FM radio, accommodate at least fifteen thousand songs and even save and create voice memos. With the massive memory of Creative Zen Vision, you can even record fond memories with your loved ones such as dates, birthdays and special moments. All these things are possible thanks to Creative Zen Vision.
Thursday, May 3. 2007
 The Creative Zen Vision is a 30GB model that is perfect to bring anywhere: at work, school and out-of-town trips. It easily slips into your pocket with its chic and sleek design. But do not be deceived. Great things come in small packages, as they say. The great thing about Creative Zen Vision is that it offers more alternatives and less hassles. In fact, all your one hundred and above pictures can be viewed as well as different formats of video clips. If you want to watch movies in a big screen, you can plug the cable connecting the television and the player. You can also use this as your organizer and alarm by recording important appointments through voice memos. For me, Creative Zen Vision is not simply an entertainment gadget but a helpful product that suits my lifestyle.

I can only get fed up with so many white gadgets. I mean, we're all looking at possible iPod killers now - the Creative Zen attempted but didn't only succeeded terribly. But the Toshiba Gigabeat S series comes in three colors: red, black, and...well, white. It was also a tad heavier than the iPod but that shouldn't be a big deal. It comes in both 30GB and 60GB hard drive capacities so storage is also not a problem.
Tuesday, May 1. 2007
A horde of iPod suckers question the features of the Toshiba Giga. For example, I'm not sure whether it has a voice recorder, but it has an FM tuner and plays mp3 (and/but more often) wma formats. You can also use it with your Xbox and Tivo to make things more fun. The video monitor is so crunk - it's a hefty QVGA screen. The battery allows this video to run for 5 hours while the Toshiba Gigabeat itself purports to last for 20 hours.
Monday, April 30. 2007
The Toshiba Gigabeat S has just been released this May, but ever since January, the iPod folks on the other side of the island have been speculating on this Microsoft-powered mp3 player's success. Of course, no player seems to beat the iTunes' success, so good luck to the next iPod contender. Unfortunately, the Toshiba Gigabeat can only support WMV for video but the Media Player eventually works to transcode the other formats to play it back on PMC.

The first time I heard DJ King, I fell into a mild comatose episode. I guess this is common for those who like to turn up the speakers' volume and sit around the living room with a few MP3-loving friends. Or, those who like to download MP3 tracks and let the DJ at the club play it for experimentation's sake. Lots of times, DJ's just record their own music on MP3 format and allow people to download it for some musical exposure. It used to be private engagement. Now, everyone who's got an ear is doing it.
Saturday, April 28. 2007
 That's when I learned that I could download trance music from private music makers and play them on your reliable Apple iPod. I could hook it up to huge boom boxes and let everyone tell me whether it's a cool song or not. Those who do not know trance music should step out of their shells and into the clubs. Pop lovers definitely had a taste of it in Madonna's track "Ray of Light". I think they also put some trance on to All Saints' album. But the most I listen to and download often are songs from the Chemical Brothers.
Friday, April 27. 2007
Now back to DJ King. He's an example of a free-flying musician who could record music in his own bedroom using his turntable and excellent ear for trance music. The beat can get exciting, sometimes trailing off to a slow halt, sending me to coma. Clubbers and dopes like to get into this funky mood. Listening to trance tracks is an experience not quite belonging to the Earth. Maybe it complements smoking grass, too. I used to poke my head to the aisles of the record bars looking for trance music. Now it's possible to get a taste of it for free - courtesy of the MP3 downloads.

Think Coldplay is hot? I understand your anal obsession with alternative music (or maybe hip-hop, grunge, ska, and whatever kind of music you play in your boom box). But what's taking so long for you to catch up to the beat? There are days when I can't find my favorite MP3 downloads myself. I know you'd think my taste is "outlandish" (ha-ha). I don't listen to Bjork, though. Her song is not outlandish enough for me. But when I feel the urge to spend all day to search for my MP3 songs that is not Bjork-oriented, I just check out Audiofind.
Wednesday, April 25. 2007
Is it so easy to complete the collection in your list when it's taking eons to find and download them? Moreover, sometimes the singles come in the wrong file format such as "wma" and your blasted MP3 player won't be able to run them. Audiofind allows you to search in a massive archive with nothing but MP3 songs. How much does the search and the download cost? Zilch. The only warning I can give you here is that unless you are using hi-speed DSL internet accesss, the download can be a frustrating wait.
Tuesday, April 24. 2007
Audiofind gives you a good look at the facts "surrounding" your favorite MP3 single. I did with Coldplay's "The Hardest Part" and I was shown the file size, the date the song was added to the MP3 player search list, the number of times it has been downloaded, the date it has been verified as a valid MP3 file, its status as a downloadable material (in this case, it's "working"), the password (not required since it's accessible to all), and download link. Sometimes a bonus such as the lyrics also appears along with the figures.
Monday, April 23. 2007
 You can judge MP3 players whether they are fuckin' trash or a real blast by virtue of their sound quality and hard drive capacity. Other MP3 players could hold up to tens of thousands of songs with a 40 GB. My Creative Zen Touch, which has a comparably smaller storage space (20 GB) won't make me envy chiquitas who use the iPod for listening's sake. It's as damn bright and bubbly, and practically useful for all things digitally musical.
Sunday, April 22. 2007
So what gives? The Zen is, at first glance, a rich dude's luxury, but with all the glamor attached to it, it's completely worth every cent. You could plug it anytime to your computer with the USB 1.0 and transfer personal music files (.wma and .mp3) pronto. It comes with a CD-ROM containing the manual, in a box where the USB lead, carry-case, earphones, and charger are already squeezed in. Zen is a bit too heavy compared to other MP3 players, but the weight does make you feel like you're fuckin' holding something that won't break in case you're in the mood to chuck china.
Saturday, April 21. 2007
Does 20 GB cut it? Absolutely, if you're used to listening to digital music during the "megabyte era". A healthy dose of playlists and randomized tracks are easily navigable in the Zen. Watch out for your thumb before it swells, since you'd be working with the touchpad like those in your Toshiba notebook. Everything's perfect? What could be the Zen's dirty secret? I'm a full-blown Windows dissenter, so how can I transfer files with the Zen when it fuckin' doesn't go with Mac and Linux OS?!
