This summer, I will be marching with the Colts Drum and Bugle Corps (www.colts.org if you care). Our tour, starting on Sunday, June 1, continues through August 9. That's 70-some days away from home.
I need a way to cart some music around with me. Of course, a CD player would do, but I don't really want to be lugging around a ton of CDs. I'm looking for something a bit more effective as far as storage.
I could go with an MD player and take time to select good songs from my CDs and MP3s to put on discs (and not spend a whole boatload of cash)
or
Get an iPod and have pretty much every song I'd want plus more (but spend a whole lot of money)
I know the advatages to MD are the ability to transfer songs from other MD players, perhaps longer battery life, less expensive, etc...
and for the iPod, WAY more music, probably better sound, but much more expensive, no ability to import tunes on the road, built in rechargeable battery (i will have access to outlets a lot of the time though)
Any input on this?
And for headphones. Buses will be noisy, and I'd like an over-the-ear closed headphone. I have a pair of sony mdrv600s now, but they are in crappy condition.
Thanks for the help!
