For someone who was only vaguely aware of the point, and is trying to figure out the best way to get music in my study and on the move, can you/someone answer the following:
1. If I have a bunch of MP3s on my Windows PC that someone produced which happen to represent CDs I own (so presumably legal for me to own the MP3s) how do I tell if I have to use certain software/devices to listen to them? 2. If I want to make MP3s of my remaining CDs, what's the best way to do it given that I use a PC with Windows and am not touching a Mac or Linux? 3. As my phone only holds 1Gb of data, what's the most cost-effective device to play MP3s on, if I want to see listings of what I've got on there and go to whatever track? I've heard that iShuffle things only let you listen to songs at random, which sounds crap.
Leads from my hearing aids to an ordinary headphone jack have got cheap enough to invest in...:)
