MP3 players for W3

Pathogen7 · 21st December 2001, 02:15

I just got a portable MP3 player and the software sucks. Is there any word about a device installation to upload music files to MP3 players or burn disks to a CD writer?

Later,

I don't think that Nullsoft would implement MP3 uploads. That's a player-specific thing, I would think. Not exactly something that should be implemented in a Media player aimed at a broad user base.

As for the CD burning, hmm. I've never used a MP3-CD player, but don't they just play Data CDs? You can make those with whatever software came with your CD Burner.

Yeah, I considered using all the different softwares that came with my CD burner and MP3 player. but why use three seperate programs when it could be consolidated into one.

Why not have everything built into a single application . . . ? Add your browser, your calculator, your text editor, your music player, video player, cd writer, dvd player, your television, your boat, your planes, your aircraft carriers.

It gets crowded and bloated really quickly. Small, single-purpose applications are generally faster, more efficient, and less buggy than their bloated counterparts.
