ehs and mp3 players

Chris-2
Anyone use an mp3 player here? I have a tiny USB one which seems OK,
was considering upgrading to an ipod nano or similar. Had a friend
check out her full size ipod with an EMF meter andit was giving out a
clicking noise.

I tend to lsiten to alot of radio via the lsiten again service now
being offer by radio station.

I use an MP3 player in my car... I think it bothers me a little, but
it's not a big deal. It doesn't have a large display, which I think
might cause people problems.

One thing that may not be ES related, is that I get bothered by
poor MP3 encoding! That is, if the bitrate is less than 128kbps
or if variable bitrate encoding is used, I get a headache! However,
I do just fine with a higher bitrate (I tend to use 160 kbps average
bitrate). I've read that this sort of thing is called "aural fatigue".
