I think 50 dollars for Sansa Fuze 2Gb is a better deal than over 60 dollars for Fuze 4GB.

IS there any difference between reading music from the original flash memory and from MicroSD card?

 

[average_joe]

No difference when the player is reading from internal memory and micro SD. But I have the 8GB and personally would like to have as much of my music in at one time as I often play all with shuffle. I am thinking of buying a Zune because I can have 120GB on it, which would be my whole music collection.

i have 700GB music.

If only the sansas had a replaceable battery id love them!
But theyre all throw-aways now

I like them much better than ipods.

Wow, that is a lot of music. Do you have it in wave format? How much music do you have? All of my Pink Floyd in FLAC is less than 2GB, which is only the 9 albums I like. I delete songs I am not all that fond of an would skip past if they came up in the play list anyways.

You need a DAP that can connect an external USB HD!

why a fuze when u have so much music?

although i agree fuze capacity doesn't matter with the option of microSD. i just got 2gb fuze + 8gb microSD for less than what the 4gb fuze was going for

Just bought a 4gb microsd card for $10-ish shipped from Amazon. I love the extra capacity (doubled my current space!) but I don't like how it appears as a separate device in WMP... I would rather have it appear as one device, since they probably won't be separated any time soon.

^ But some people might use the card for more than just 1 player. You can pop the card into the other player after your main one runs out of battery power.

There is a difference. That being battery power. It will use more battery power reading from the microSD card than the internal drive.
Also codec effects battery power e.g. Vorbis will use more power than FLAC or mp3 due to it having a more complex algorithm.
Sonically, zero.

Also you won't know what's on what.

You can change the battery on fuze, although you would have to get your own battery but it is possible.

I will simply get the 2GB, I would rather have all my music in the microsd card.

Do you know for a fact it will use more battery power from the SD card? Depends on how the memory controller is configured.

Sonically, zero?

And I thought FLAC ate more battery power than MP3.

Isnt the fuze sealed therefore making it impossible to replace the battery?
I dont think sansa will replace it if you send it.
Theyre not going to crack it open.
