The Mp5 Player Offers More Than Just A Jump In Price

By Brendon Sachs

With so much new technology popping up, you might question the need for a mp5 player. Is it just a rehash of the mp4? It hasn't been that long since the introduction of the mp3. If you're like me then you might be wondering if the technology can move that fast. It does.

Buying every new upgrade on the market isn't sensible. Sometimes the release time between one version of a product and the next is minuscule at best. I remember buying my first Microsoft Xbox. I was ecstatic until I found out that the new model was already in production. A fact that would only lead to the decreased production of games and products for the system that I had recently acquired. Big time corporations don't see this as a problem. It wouldn't be prudent for conglomerates to fall behind the game. Businesses must compete with the market and their competitors.

When digital audio players first fell into our lap, that's really all they were. A turbo-charged walkman that plugged into a computer. They only played audio. Although they stored music, a fantastic feature, the memory wasn't blowing anyone away. As newer models were released, it became possible to expand the mp's memory. The expansions weren't cheap, but they didn't break the bank either.

Mp5 players are the latest in portable media players. If it seems like we just found out about mp3s, it's because we have. With iphones, portable DVD players, and laptops an upgrade to a mp5 player is understandable. Most older mp3s don't support video, something that is a must in today's portable media market. If they do, the video must often be converted to a compatible format.

The difference between mp3s and mp4s is minimal. They came out just a few years apart. At the time technology, although advancing swiftly, didn't make enough progress to warrant the purchase of a mp4, especially if you owned a mp3. Significant change came with the advent of the mp5 player. Until now any ipod would probably meet all your needs.

The mp5 player is the new kid in town. Unlike it's own predecessors, this version of the pmp (portable media players) has made a significant jump. Most standard mp5 players come with digital video recording that records up to a half hour worth of footage. Internet videos can be downloaded in Rmvb format allowing users to skip the conversion process and watch videos as soon as their done downloading. Also, mp5 players support a broader selection of media formats. New tech advances such as Wi-Fi, G. P. S., and Blue- tooth work seamlessly with the newest version of the media player, making it more than just a profitable rehash.
