nowadays we are seeing more and more companies trying to integrate audio and video into one, and focusing their resources developing those.
i mean even though i dont dig PMP, but i respect those who do, and i understand a lot of people find bringing their video/ movie collection a need.
but the thing is, these dont coexist with improvements for high quality and high capacity audio-only players. who's left now? ipod classic. other than that everything's old stuff- iriver H140, cowon X5, sony NW-HD5.
this is sad considering that with the advancing technology we could afford better audio players with more capacity. i would definitely be delighted if sony announced NW-HD6 coming up (!!!)
are audio only players dead? or are we going to see a revival somewhere in the future, in terms of the market behaviour and people's attitude towards personal audio?
