Players
The Nano has the intuitive iPod
controls, along with a 1 1/2 inch color screen for
viewing photos. Music sounds good, and at 14 hours,
battery life is OK. However, you have to use iTunes to

designed, and deserves its five-star rating. |

Mixing music and water - listen to your
MP3s under water.
Anyone have any experience
with underwater music players? I bought last year the
waterproof Oregon Scientific, which has been fantastic
for whiling away the laps in the pool, although the
earplugs could be better. h20audio seems to have a wide
range of products for waterproofing your existing music
player and looks like a better solution. |

dropping copies of itself (using names such as names
such as game.exe, goporn.exe, nero7.exe and
officexpcrack.exe). |

Listen to Your MP3 Collection from
Anywhere
Edna is a Python based dynamic MP3
server that allows you to access your MP3 collection
from any networked computer. Rather than directly
serving up an MP3, the software serves up a playlist.
This gets passed to your player (e.g. Winamp, iTunes,
XMMS, WMP) which turns around with an HTTP request to
stream the MP3. |

Is DivX dead? Podcasting results seem to
indicate it...
I've been posting my video
podcast in many various video formats, including mp4 for
the iPod, WMV, Flash, MP3, H.264, and of course, DivX. I
am amazed to find that the DivX format is the LEAST
used. I knew flash would be the most popular, but I
expected DivX to be 2nd. It comes in LAST, below H.264
and even MP3. Should I remove it altogether? |

"Of those selling music
