hi all, I just bought a £30 MP3 player in tesco and was somewhat surpised to see it was 2GB and claimed to hold up to 640 tracks.
On the back it indicated that this number was based on an avergae file size being 2.9MB.
When I uploaded driver it read 1.8 GB and not 2 GB left
well having downloaded about 111 songs and having just 888MB left, I am a little shocked as I reckon I would be lucky to reach 200 songs. I understand that many of the songs are longer than 3 minutes etc but still the overall claimed space taken should at least be able to hold half of what it claims to hold.
I reliase many of these songs are longer and therefore take up more space but don't understand the cobblers about up to 640 track, presumably if each song was 2 mins each.
therefore any one know how long in mins 2.9mb is and
anyone had this experience. I feel a little bit conned to be honest
