Genuine question : Why use that instead of storing your musics on your phone ?
I prefer an MP3 player over my phone. Here is the one I use. Why I like this one:
While I use my phone for music I can certainly see some advantages:
physical buttons
smaller and lighter
less distraction than a phone
cheaper to replace if stolen or broken
I have a shuffle just for running.
Having something that doesn't connect to the internet makes for a better device in the long run. Plus, as others have mentioned, less distractions.
