I got my 2 gig MP3 player the January before we moved to India. I had it in my head I would not find the Christan music I find here.
It also worked as a 2 gig thumb drive at work. Even when they outlawed the use of them I was still handing it around to everyone.
It was also my saving grace in India. Its so loud there, the horns, the people the cars, buses and I would some times take it and listen to it on the way to work. Hearing Amazing Grace on the harp done by sister in law did me a lot of good. When your senses are overloaded having a peaceful experience can change your entire attitude. I could also listen to it at work, since of course you don't load up the work computer with your own music.
It was well worth the $40 at tigerdirect.com
