slotMusic

Music, Retail and Tech Leaders to Offer “slotMusic™”: High Quality, DRM-Free MP3 Music on microSD™ Cards. slotMusic cards enable consumers to instantly and easily enjoy music from their favorite artists without being dependent on a PC or internet connection. Users simply insert the slotMusic card into their microSD-enabled mobile phone or MP3 player to hear the music – without passwords, downloading or digital-rights-management interfering with their personal use.

SanDisk has released this news on their new slotMusic cards - albums available on microSD cards. This idea seems messy to me and destined to be a flump. Would you buy slotMusic cards?

I actually read about this earlier, but all the bit that I read (summary) was that labels were going to be releasing albums on "mini flash memory cards". I think microSD might be a bad idea because even though it is a fairly widely accepted format, not EVERYONE can use it. I do however thing if they had to choose an SD format (micro, mini, or SD) micro was the best choice. You can get one of those fancy pants micro/mini/SD kits for like $10 at Target so if your phone only takes miniSD (like mine) you pop the microSD card into the miniSD adapter and you're set to go.
