Current Trends in Music Players
Current Trends in Music Players
Music players have continued to rise in popularity, causing previous media such as the CD player to become obsolete over the past couple of years. Being able to plug a player into your computer and get all the songs you want has become the norm for consumers, who no longer have to worry about scratching discs. Now the major players once again push forward new technology so that their music players tend to do a whole lot more than simply play music.
Take the Apple IPod Touch. IPod has been one of the biggest names in MP3 technology since it was introduced as the original music player. With vast competition from quality giant technology based corporations, Apple needs to stay on the forefront of the features race and they do so again with the IPod Touch. With a wide LCD screen that enables video as well as MP capability, the touch does exactly what it sounds like. The menu interface can be easily selected by touch, making interaction between user and machine easier than ever before.
Sony attempts to counter with its NWZ-A818 model, which features a beautiful two inch color screen and the ability to view photos as well as video, bragging its capacity to contain over 5,000 songs or 30 hours of video. Sony’s players are well known for their sound quality, having the advantage with their screens as well of long being in the commercial technology field. With state-of-the-art headphones packaged with the Sony NWZ-A1818 player, Sony has a quality competitive product.
Sony has also unleashed the Bean, a compact player short on features but long on battery life. Boasting 50 hours of life before needing a recharge, the tiny player also is excellent in terms of its no-skipping technology, making it Sony’s best offering for those who looking for an MP3 player usable during physical workouts.
Another company who has focused on the exercise market for music players is Philips, who has teamed up with Nike, another business giant, to make the MP3/Run. In addition to high music quality, the player comes with a small receiver that can be attached to a runner’s shoe. Data is then transferred from the receiver to the MP3/Run’s advanced stopwatch program, which will detail items such as distance traveled and pace, and will give vocal alerts. With only twelve hours of battery time it isn’t designed to compete with other MP3’s in that particular department. But if you can run for more than twelve hours you are probably a machine yourself. Philips-Nike’s MP3/Run also includes an FM radio.
Philips Mp3 Player attempts to go head to head with the IPod Touch and the NWZ-A818 with their GoGear line, with its largest model, the HD6330 boasting 30 GB of space enabling it to contain 15,000 songs and Philips well-recognized Superscroll System, which is one of the best when it comes to easily navigating and choosing from your song list.
While many cell phones have MP3 player capacity, it is clear that the major manufacturers of music players are finding the marketplace to be extremely healthy, with improving technologies and major brands placing high profile product into the marketplace.
