Default Re: IGN gets excited over playing MP3's

So IGN gets excited about mp3 playback on the PSP, eh? So some of you are looking forward to listening to mp3s on your PSP, eh?

Well, let's see here. mp3s have to be stored on the Memory Stick unless they come on the UMD (not happening. It just won't happen).

A 32 megabyte Memory Stick costs $35.

A 64 megabyte Memory Stick will set you back $50.

Assuming 128-bit encoding (and lots of people use higher quality these days), 64 megabytes is about enough for 12 typical songs or a little over an hour of music.

This is assuming, of course, that you aren't storing other things on the Memory Stick. Like saved games.

Am I the only one here who sees an elephant?
