@noyoushutthefuckupdad @ergo @bajax If you only care about playing music, just get a digital voice recorder. They are basically the same thing as you can load MP3 files onto them and they even have playlist functionality, plus they are much more durable from my experience.

@ergo @bajax @noyoushutthefuckupdad Some of them do have those things. I have one that even has FM radio and it's still marketed as a voice recorder.
