In a moment of weakness on the internet a couple of weeks ago I made two separate purchases of new toys for myself. I purchased a SlimX CD/FM/MP3 player and a set of Etymotic ER-4P ear buds.
The SlimX is really neat. It's only 17mm thick and comes with a tiny wired remote with LCD for controlling the player. I believe there is over 20Hrs of play time when the batteries are fully charged. The firmware in the player is upgradable. The ER-4Ps sound awsome! They fit in your ears and block out surrounding noise. I can listen to my music and hear every note. Some people may find them uncomfortable to wear but I can tolerate them better than over the ear headphones. My head always feels like it's in a vise when I wear conventional headphones. With the Etys you are basically alone with your music. Jewel is whispering into my brain right now... Fantastic!
The player supports WinAmp playlists which I can export using MJ. However I'm a little confused at how to do this. I don't mean that I don't understand the MJ interface. What I mean is that I think I'd have to copy the files I want to burn onto a cd, to a new location on the hard drive. Then use MJ to create playlists referencing the music in the new folder. BUT, I don't want to mess up my existing library entries and after the CD and Playlists are burned, I'd like to delete them leaving my original libraries intact. I'm a little unsure at how to accomplish this. Do I import the music from the temporary directory first? If so, how do I get rid of it when I'm fininshed? Anyone else ever do anything like this?
Thanks
