This is absolute bullshit. Lets put the maths up on this.
i already done the math in response to you quoting me on this which btw makes your math wrong (or, rather, right only if you want to hear music in quality that is akin to listening with a bucket on your head).
Oh really? Post it.
already did, here, in response to your other post.

Also, Flac files are not and never will be suitable for MP3 use. I also accounted for increasing the bit rate and still came up with more hours of music than i'd be able to listen to (depending on size, 10 to 20). I listen to perhaps three or so hours of music daily. This is when i'm working out and on the way there/back. Rest of the time i'm working or with my family. I imagine i'm not the only one in this situation.
Flac is suitable for music player use when you have enough storage space for that. Gladly - we are approaching that time. Good quality audio is always a good thing.
3 hours per day, with 10 hours playlist means you have to swam the songs every 3 days then. This is very annoying.

I fail to see how a device with a battery that can last a month is relevant to this article, which is about a device with a battery that lasts 8 hours at best. In comparison, my phone can loop 1080p video for longer than that [http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/11/18/review_sony_xperia_z1/?page=3], and will happily last days if all I'm using it for is music. A dedicated mp3 player that is actually better than a phone for the limited functions it focusses on is one thing, but this piece of crap is actually worse in pretty much every way.
Its relevant in a way to point that device in the article is stupid for being small storage and short life when the audience want large numbers on both of those. Good that your phone can do that, not everybodies can. I completely agree that thing advertised in the article is crap, which is what i have been arguin had you read my posts.

Anyone who thinks they need more than 4GB to hold a playlist big enough for their swimming schedule is either clueless, delusional or has a practice regimen of an olympic athlete.
or doesnt want to swam songs every week. you know, like, everyone.
