Number of songs on 1gb mp3 player?

About 250 songs. Pictures, probably about 125. It depends on the sampling rate and the length of the song. The sampling rate is usually measured in kbps (kilobits per second)and has a huge range. The higher the number the faster the sampling, the larger the file and the closer to CD it sounds. Files sampled at 256 kbps or above are usually indistinguishable from the CD. In the days where disk space was at a premium. people would sample at 128 or 162 kbps. Now that disk sizes are quite large people are sampling at higher rates. This rate can usually be set in the software you use to rip CD's. One gigabyte equals 8,388,608 kilobits. (You can convert most digital sizes using a bit calculator at http://www.matisse.net/bitcalc/) If you sample at 196 kbps this will give you 42,799 seconds or 713 minutes of music in a 1 gigabyte disk. If you sample at 256 kbps you would have 32768 seconds of music or 546 minutes in a 1 gigabyte disk. Since it is estimated that the average song length is between 3 and 4 minutes, a 1 gigabyte disc can hold the following: Sample rate Song Length Number of Songs 128 3 minutes 364 128 4 minutes 273 162 3 minutes 287 162 4 minutes 215 196 3 minutes 238 196 4 minutes 178 256 3 minutes 182 256 4 minutes 137 Since it is estimated that a 30 GB iPod will hold 7500 songs, this would come out to be about 250/GB which is within the ballpark of what we calculated above if sampled at between 128-196 KBPS. If your average song is around 4mb, and there's 1000mb in 1gb, divide 1000 by 4. You'll be able to have around 250 songs on your 1gb card.


How many songs will a 4 gb mp3 player hold?

It all depends on the intended bitrate of the songs to be put on the CD, and the lengths of them. But a CD will be full when one of 2 limits is reached: # the 700mb is full # the disc is 70-80 minutes of audio. But usually you only have to worry about 70-80 minute limitation. So only 70-80 minutes of songs can be put on a cd. So if the average song length is 4 minutes, about 15-20 songs.


How many gigabytes is all the music in the world together?

You have to estimate, because it would be impossible to tell exactly how many songs have been written, but if you roughly estimate 1000 songs have been written per day every day in the world for the last say 200 years (its probably a lot more) then:1000*365*200= 73,000,000 (73 million) songsIf you estimate the total using MP3's (roughly 4 million bytes or 4MB) you get(4,000,000)*(73,000,000) = 292,000,000,000,000 (292 trillion bytes or 292TB)or292,000 GB


Can you download mp3 music from iTunes?

It is really easy- all you need is your mp3 player, it's plug-in cord, and a memory stick. I'll walk you through the steps: 1. Because most mp3 players that are not iPods need mp3's to play, you have to convert the music to mp3. To do this, all you need to do is right click on the song you want, then click "convert to mp3". This is essential. 2. After converting the song, you need to copy and paste the mp3 formatted song to your memory stick files. To do this, right click on the song you want from iTunes, click "copy" and then "paste" it in the memory stick file, which you can open from "My Computer". 3. Next, you need to copy your music from your memory stick to your mp3 player. To do this, you pretty much do the same process that you used above. Just copy and paste. It's really easy. *Make sure to put the music you are copying into the folder marked "music". 4. All you have to do now is unplug your mp3 player. Hope this helps!! :) We did this with a Sansa mp3 player.

How about 4 GB video MP3 player VS iPod touch?

Hmmm, 4 GB video MP3 player VS iPod touch? Actually the 4 GB video MP3 player can hold up to one thousand song but it's pretty good though but the iPod touch is way lot better. The 4 GB video MP3 player battery life can last up to two or three hours can play videos up to six hours. The 4 GB video MP3 player does not have any features or games to play and it does not has any memory plus with this type of MP3 player you can't use Internet or call anyone but now the 4 GB video MP3 player is in deep trouble, the iPod touch. The iPod touch has up to 8 GB also the iPod touch can play up to ten hours of videos and it has lots and lots of better features. The iPod touch battery life can last up to thirty hours and it also hold up to 1750 songs or more. The iPod touch has a better memory than the 4 GB video MP3 player. With the iPod touch you can use Internet, find locations, call your friends, watch longer hours full version movie without any wi-fi plus you can play games also you can play games and listen to music at the same time. Some iPod touch has up to 64 GB and can hold up to 7,000 songs. Yeah, maybe the 4 GB video MP3 player is losing the iPod touch. The 4 GB video MP3 player can play videos does not mean that it is better than the iPod touch, the iPod touch is way lot better. There is no way that 4 GB video MP3 player can win the iPod touch. The iPod touch has a bigger touch screen but not the 4 GB video MP3 player. The iPod touch is the winner.
