1. Comment - SanDisk's slotMusic may have to survive a company takeover

   (Sep 23, 2008 - 1:56 AM)

   Great! I've been waiting for it.
   
   For a couple years now the mp3 players stopped having SD slots which was not good for SanDisk or us. Obviously it's more convenient to have a library of memory cards instead of either internal memory or CDs.
   
   SlotDisks will bury both.
   
   The next step will be the following business model for recorded music:
   
   A one or two GB disc of music,text, and pictures, released every day -- like a newspaper, sold and used kind of like a newspaper, for the same cost as a newspaper.
   
   My town of a quarter million will alone contribute a hundred groups, and won't we be proud and grateful to be able to check them out.
   
   (The daily GB will also be available as a download, but who wants to wait and pay for all that bandwidth.)
   
   Ofcourse the daily GB should also have a bunch of oldies.
   
   By the way, soon computers in general will be solid state, and these memory disks will replace external drives.
