My 90 year old mother is dying. She is a life long music lover, teacher, and choir director who played violin and piano and got her degree is music theory.
I can't think of anything she would enjoy more than listening to some of her favorite composers, hymns and singers while she is in hospice.
I am an Apple user and have several iPods - Nano, Touch etc..
I think these are too small and complicated for her to use on her own and was wondering if there were any digital players out there that would be easier for her to manipulate. Anything come to mind?
Also, I'd like to get her some headphones that have decent sound and gentle clamping force. Probably over ears would be the only thing that she'd be able to stand for long periods of time since she is essentially confined to bed.
I'm burning discs to iTunes and compiling a playlist for her...I use Apple Lossless...transferring that to whatever player needs to be easy.
I don't care about costs but she'd probably still give me a lickin' if I spent more than a few hundred dollars on her...say $500
Thanks in advance...your suggestions are appreciated.
