Home Improvement Tool and Toy Reviews

I have been messing around with my new Sandisk Sansan MP3 player the last few days and I have to say that I am really diggin’ it. The main reason is that I have put a lot of music on it so I have a really good variety to choose from.

The other reason is that I discovered the “Play All” option which just takes all of your songs and mixes them up so it is kind of like a radio station but it is all of your favorite bands and songs. I know some of you are going to say “duh” as this option is probably on every physical and software player out there. Hey, give me break, I took a break from all music for a while, like a 10 year break, so I am barely getting back into the swing of things.

The other thing that I have messed with is the video player. I was able to download an episode of South Park from Youtube (thanks to TechCrunch) and then used the included converter to convert it to a Quicktime movie. It then automatically transfer it to your player once it is done. The only issue is that the file from Youtube was only 58mb and by the time the converter was done the same 22 minute episode was 160mb. i am still looking into how I can make this smaller.

Anyway I am totally stoked with my MP3 player and am so glad that I did not get an iPod.
