In response to "I have spent approximately 3-4 hours today trying to build and then cull playlists for my 2GB mp3 player." by TFox

I find 4GB to be the sweet spot. my phone is 16 and that's too much. my blue lipstick player is 2 and that's way not enough.

I like 3 GB music, room for podcasts, and calendar and contact sync.

my 4GB nano was a flawless companion for me.

I like around that amount, too. it makes me be choosier, so there's less skipping needed. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:18 2

I need a 20GB or more player as my "primary". This is my "workout" player. -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:13 19
- 8MB works fine for me. I have just one and never fill it. I could probably be fine with 4. -- nm - loosilu Jan 18, 20:16
- I get kind of anxious about having less than 20 on a device. - Reagen Jan 18, 20:15 1
  - Filling this 2GB properly suuuucked. It was an interesting exercise but... I'm glad its done. - TFox Jan 18, 20:19
- I like to be very active in managing my music. I like smaller players because they make me switch out music often. - amanchester Jan 18, 20:14 14
  - It's funny how people use these things differently. There are certain bands that I *need* their entire catalog on my iPod at all times. - TFox Jan 18, 20:17 13
    - I like letting things go random too much for that. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:20 10
      - yeah, i'm either in "listen to this album in order" or "listen to this artist on shuffle". those are my only two modes. - TFox Jan 18, 20:23 9
        
        I'm kind of sad for you. you'll never experience the magic that is two songs you wouldn't think would go together, um, going together. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:27 8
        
        I use songs to manage my mood. Something weird popping in would throw that off - Reagen Jan 18, 20:29 4
        
        I have this playlist called "depeche mode that makes me either happy or sad." it makes me manic. I kind of love it. -- nm - amanchester Jan 18, 20:37
        
        well, I can still do that if I want/need to, as I sometimes do. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:36
        
        My wife hates the way I listen to music. AC/DC can come up right after Little River Band and I go with it. - TWuG Jan 18, 20:34

        like hearing 311 and 2 Skinnee J's back to back. that's nirvana -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:28 2
        
        that *is* nirvana. -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:31 1
        
        shit like that made HAL 9000 kill the crew -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:32
    - This is how I am. I need every Radiohead song at finger tip away. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 20:18 1
      - Radiohead was another one, but they were recently downgraded to a 3-4 album block. -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:20
- (I'm actually psyched about a 32GB phone, because I could retire the primary.) -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:13
your lips play mp3s? -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:12 1
- I have an mp3 player that looks like a lipstick. it's kind of awesome. the "lipstick" is blue. -- nm - amanchester Jan 18, 20:15
