    right but like, a modern audio player should be very cheap to make, my fucking xiaomi smart watch cost 80 bucks and that would be a fair price for a device that meets my specifications above.

    And many people, like me, much prefer to have their music downloaded so it’s ALWAYS available, and if i could have a small handy device that can accept multiple SD cards that’d definitely be worth up to 100 dollars.

    I used to have this sony bluetooth reciever that just clips onto your clothes and outputs to plug-in headphones and it was great, something like that with maybe even TWO sd card slots and ample battery life would be amazing. Then just let me connect it to the phone to manage playlists and stuff and we’re golden.

    Or, you know, do what apple is doing, which honestly seems more and more genius the more i think about this… I don’t like when apple is objectively innovative… Also fuck patenting it, i don’t want it to be legally impossible for other companies to make the same thing, fuck off apple.

      I don’t disagree! I also prefer offline music.

      I’d just imagine it’s a hard sell to mass manufacture
