Portable CD MP3 Player

Portable CD Mp3 Player

By Anne Ahira

There are two types of devices that fall into the portable CD mp3 player category. Each one has a specific purpose and may not be what you are looking for. Knowing the difference can keep you from making a costly mistake.

Portable CD Mp3 Player – Ripped CD’s

The most common type of portable CD mp3 player is a typical mp3 CD player that will also play burnt or ripped CD’s. These come in many shapes and sizes are appropriate for all ages.

A portable CD mp3 player like this makes it possible for you to protect your current CD’s from damage since you can download them to your computer then burn a copy onto a cheaply replaceable disk. In order to do this you will need the following:

A. Computer
B. Cd-Rw or Cd burner disk drive
C. Software for creating new music CD’s
D. Blank CD’s

When you have invested good money in a new CD, you may not want to drag it to the beach or lake. This way you can save a copy in your computer, burn a CD to travel with and save your original copy somewhere safe.

Most new portable CD mp3 players will recognize all the many mp3 formats. For older mp3 players you will want to read the specifications on which types of music files they will play.

These are great choices for the person who is just transitioning into the mp3 music era or who just wants to protect their library of music.

Portable CD mp3 Player – Mp3 Dock

When shopping around today you may have found there is a new product on the market. Portable CD mp3 player that doubles as an mp3 player dock. More simply stated this is a portable device that allows you to play CD’s of all types but also has a dock for your portable mp3 player.

Now you can play your ripped CD’s or the hundreds of songs saved to your mp3 player usb. Versatile and handy this player will likely replace traditional CD players sometime in the near future. Digital Mp3 players are everywhere, you would be hard pressed to find a person who does not or has not had one. Therefore, it makes sense this is an excellent investment.

However if you are not one who simply must have every new gadget that comes to market you may be perfectly content with the example above. Not much use for a portable CD mp3 player with a dock if you do not have or plan to get an mp3 player.

Finally

Either player can be a great choice it simply depends on your needs and wants. Choose the player that best fits your lifestyle and budget instead of what is newest on the market. You can rest assured in three months or less there will be another new gadget available.
