portable mp3When my son decided that he was going to commute via train every day to college as opposed to staying in the dorm; the one thing he asked for was a portable MP3 player to make his commute more enjoyable.   I know how much he loves music and he said that he would try to study on the train and that if he had a portable MP3 player he could put the ear buds in and focus on his studies and the music and not have to worry about other people talking or other distractions.   I thought it sounded like a great idea so we decided to look online and see what kind of deals we could find on a portable MP3 player.  I knew that because they would be less expensive online, we would get more for our money and sure enough, that was true.    It didn’t take me long to find a portable MP3 player that we both agreed on and I ordered it for him.  He’s been using it every day since it arrived and said that it makes his commute so much easier.
