Joy is looking for headphones that take SD cards & I found these SD Card Sport MP3 Headphones - 1602C
SD Card Sport MP3 Headphones - 1602C which takes AAA batteries - ideal if it plays the files.
& the Skullcandy SCMP640BR

anyone know if these play MP2 - the kind of file generated by recording DAB radio off-air. The radio manufacturers havn't quite worked-out how to convert the files on the fly, or off-line.

I found a player/radio that might serve for me and might just record in MP3 because it claims to do schedule recordings for FM.
an Iriver product but that is for me and I can tolerate different headphones.

Failing that anyone tried playing MP2 files on MP3 players and suceeded (some can but they rarely say so, some need renamed files). & No I don't want to have to rename all the files for a technophobe each day.
