[PLUG] [OT] Does anybody know of a good mp4+mp3 player (mips or android based) which is available in the mkt.

[mallapadi niranjan]

I am not sure if this helps, But i don't use a smartphone and for my music
needs, i use sandisk mp3 player[1].

For me it's enough (doesn't play videos.), very durable , very lightweight,
and you can install rockbox [2]. to support
flac, ogg formats (audio).  Its as durable as old nokia 1100 phones.

This mp3 player is not fancy and it works on Linux , and is detected as usb
and just copy paste your songs on to the usb drive. I am
using this mp3 player for last 5 years and its the best companion.
