"ITS SIMPLE MATH...
i have a mp3 player with about a 100 songs on my pc now at 80 bps, the compression rato to my understanding with the micro/os system is 10 times that of an mp3 player...the main feature of compression from edig is they extract sounds the human ear can't hear in the first place, thus making more room for the sounds you can hear...the diamond rio player can hold about 20 songs max right now, 60 to 90 minutes worth, the edig player 5 to six hours worth at higher bps, figure song lenth 4 min, divided that into six hours, diamond rio player 20 songs at 80 bps, edig "FUTURE" player 90 songs at 128bps and thats the low side of this thing....as for storage, like i said in one of the posts, i don't know where your master stash of music might be stored, it was specualtion, you may pay for it, then pull up what you want from a master file from a record company that stores this stuff using "stacks"...because you can only listen to one song at a time....if they (record labels) pool their music in one place, your music library might be ten thousand songs....right now 500 to a 1000 is verrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyy low end and doable right now......" |
