WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.240 If you're like us, you probably have fond memories of the iPod. While it was revolutionary, it wasn't even close to the first MP3 player on the scene. 00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:11.760 These aren't iPods! These are weird old MP3 players! 00:00:11.760 --> 00:00:15.360 Our buddy Dankpods flew all the way from Down Under to the Great White North. 00:00:15.360 --> 00:00:21.160 Come on, what are you doing? To show us the weirdest and rarest MP3 players made by PC brands. 00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:28.400 Is it coming out? We got Intel. We got Creative. We got Lexar. We got Dell. 00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:32.240 iOmega? Is that a zip drive? Yeah, this is some weird stuff. 00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:35.600 iOmega's dead, aren't they? Are they? Oh, I don't know. 00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:37.360 A moment of silence. 00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:44.640 Wait, isn't that the secret one that we shouldn't be showing? And a secret one that's from Linus' childhood. 00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:49.280 I think, I could be wrong and Linus could get here and be like, I never owned that and I'll roll with that as well. 00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:53.200 Any reactions, a good reaction. Wow, we're so prepared. 00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:57.520 Let's dig in. This one, I swear there is no paper trail at all of this thing. 00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:02.120 When I was looking into this, there's one JPEG and it's just this part heavily cropped. 00:01:02.120 --> 00:01:09.160 If you try and search up Lexar 128 megabyte, it will show Lexar 128 Gigabyte things and then that's it. 00:01:09.160 --> 00:01:13.800 Like, there's nearly no information at all. What are we looking at? This is a MP3 player, right? 00:01:13.800 --> 00:01:17.280 Oh, baby, this is back when megabytes meant something. 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:22.120 Inflation's gotten everything. So 128 megabytes, carry music wherever you go. 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:25.120 Everywhere. And data wherever you go. Maybe, yes. 00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:29.920 And I hate that the price got scratched off. Someone was very ashamed about what this costs back in the day. 00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:34.360 Because I remember my first flash drive was 32 megabytes and it cost a fortune. 00:01:34.360 --> 00:01:38.600 I believe this is either late 90s or very, very early thousands. 00:01:38.600 --> 00:01:42.680 We're going to have to find some paperwork in there to see what it actually, what it was actually made. 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:46.120 Yeah, Lexar, they're still going, aren't they? They've been through a couple of hands at this point. 00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:50.280 They were micron actually at one point for memory SD cards. 00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:54.280 We know what happened with micron. Can you believe this is like 20 something years old? 00:01:54.720 --> 00:01:58.480 Pushin' 30 and everyone said no. Do you know what's crazy to me? 00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:02.440 Is this storage comparison on the back here? Two hours of music for 128 megabytes. 00:02:02.440 --> 00:02:07.440 That's 88 floppy disks? But I bet you that's like 64 kilobit, like... 00:02:07.440 --> 00:02:12.280 MP3's got a bad rap from these days because I've got some of these that are like used 00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:15.640 and they've still got slipknot on them from 1999. They sound horrible. 00:02:15.640 --> 00:02:21.960 Like early MP3 compression was garbage. And I bet you to get that many hours of music on 128 megs, 00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:25.360 it was just... It was probably 128 kilobit. 00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:29.960 That's what the standard was for a lot of stuff. Some of the lower quality stuff was 96, 00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:33.480 but yeah, you hear the cymbal ring and it's... 00:02:33.480 --> 00:02:37.160 Easy to use one button navigation, which has never been true. 00:02:37.160 --> 00:02:41.280 Having one button is not easy navigation. Keep believe no one copied this. 00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:44.680 After this no one replicated. Absolutely not. Everyone knocked off the iPod. 00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:48.560 But who wouldn't want the eggnipple interface? Do we know it the year? 00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:52.720 macOS 9 or above, Windows Millennium 2000 XP. That to me sounds... 00:02:52.720 --> 00:02:57.200 So it's at least... Turn of the century. Yep. For context, the iPod came out in 2001. 00:02:57.200 --> 00:03:01.040 The very first one. The way I found this was by searching MP3 00:03:01.040 --> 00:03:05.760 and scrolling for six hours. And then it appeared. I wasn't actually looking for this. 00:03:05.760 --> 00:03:09.440 Breathe the air, you're wasting it. Actually, no, don't do that. 00:03:09.440 --> 00:03:13.560 I hope it's super greasy. How's it feel? It's in good condition. It's not like rubber, right? 00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:17.440 No. Still got the protective bit over the screen too. My brand new knife. 00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:20.640 You can do a peel. A single AAA. It's not for retail trade. 00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:24.880 I don't know if there's an expiry on it. It doesn't look like it's leaked. No, it looks like it's in pretty good condition. 00:03:24.880 --> 00:03:28.680 So it's better than new Energizer batteries. You want to test it? Yes. 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:32.040 0.6 volts. Hey. What's it meant to be? 1.3, I think. 00:03:32.040 --> 00:03:35.080 1.2. But it's still something hiding in there. 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.760 Before we get into the documentation, we got the back case made in China. 00:03:38.760 --> 00:03:43.160 Wow. We got a clippable lanyard, a USB adapter. 00:03:43.160 --> 00:03:46.680 That'd be USB 1.1. Is this a... Why is it... 00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:51.880 Oh! It's got a USB on it. So this is if you have to put it into like a recessed port. 00:03:51.880 --> 00:03:56.120 And we got a pair of headphones. Dirty birds. Do you like treble? 00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:59.120 Dude, I love it. You love those. Why is the end all dirty? 00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:02.720 It looks like a chocolate bun. I don't know. Cause I thought maybe it'd be like rubber reversion, but it's not. 00:04:02.720 --> 00:04:06.480 I think it was from the battery leaking on it. Oh, yeah, put it in. That one's not going to work. No, I put it in. 00:04:06.480 --> 00:04:09.000 You can try it. Don't listen to him. Do it, do it. 00:04:11.160 --> 00:04:14.400 We can grab a... Yeah, let's go get a real AAA. What's this? 00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:16.760 That's the headphone jack? That's where the headphone goes in. 00:04:17.760 --> 00:04:21.880 It's only goes on one way. It only goes on. 00:04:21.880 --> 00:04:25.000 Oh my goodness. I tried to put it on. I hope it's got music on it. 00:04:26.880 --> 00:04:30.840 It turns on. No files. Okay, no, there is no music on it. 00:04:30.840 --> 00:04:34.440 Well, it's got a backlight. Yeah, it does have a backlight. It's like the indiglo watches. 00:04:34.440 --> 00:04:37.800 Look, there's some music notes. How many settings you got? Normal. 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:42.240 Rock. Jazz. Classical. 00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:45.720 Pop. Boom. That is your V. 00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:49.400 Leave it on boom. We want boom, baby. Backlight. 00:04:49.400 --> 00:04:53.160 Condor. The menu is everything. It's not, there's no like setting submenu. 00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:57.960 We'll put music on it in a bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're gonna get these loaded up. I wanna see the Intel one now. 00:04:57.960 --> 00:05:03.200 Get away from me. This genuinely is one of my pride and joys of my nugget hood. 00:05:03.200 --> 00:05:06.520 This is the one I always wanted to bring. I didn't even know they tried. 00:05:06.520 --> 00:05:10.120 And 1999, they heaved this thing out. They really cared. 00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:13.280 Like every big PC company got in way before Apple 00:05:13.280 --> 00:05:16.280 and none of them had it hit at all. If it wasn't an iPod, no one bought it. 00:05:16.880 --> 00:05:21.840 The Intel Pocket Concert. This one's got 128 megs too, but does four hours. 00:05:21.840 --> 00:05:24.960 It's also got FM radio? That's sick. 00:05:24.960 --> 00:05:27.960 Durable aluminum. Very low distortion. I'm sorry, what'd you call it? 00:05:27.960 --> 00:05:31.640 It's spelled that, okay? I don't know how to tell you this. I'm pretty sure it's aluminium though. 00:05:31.640 --> 00:05:35.280 Bro, are you Intel? This is full of stuff, this is loaded. 00:05:35.280 --> 00:05:38.320 This is a big box. Like also look at the like. Poof. 00:05:38.320 --> 00:05:41.440 Poof. It's like exploding at you. 00:05:41.440 --> 00:05:44.720 Well, they had to. Cause this is how you knew about it. It was on a store shelf. 00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:48.200 Wow. She looks kind of scary. She's scaring the academy. 00:05:48.200 --> 00:05:52.720 11 megawatt high-put audio amplifier with a total harmonic distortion plus N. 00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:55.960 I don't know, what's that? Of 0.04%. 00:05:55.960 --> 00:06:00.000 And look at this man, he's gone for a run. Hopefully it comes with these headphones. 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.080 Cause they look- All the wrapper on the back? They look something else. 00:06:05.280 --> 00:06:09.400 No, it's not as good. Look, there's just- Oh! 00:06:09.400 --> 00:06:12.920 We got a disc. Oh, it's sealed in its own. 00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:17.000 Okay. So much packaging. Look at the size of this manual. 00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:21.360 No one showed the upgrade key. Someone's going to take that and I won't be able to upgrade. 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:27.160 Should we call Intel customer support? I think we need the software, the Intel audio manager. 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:31.000 And it's telling us how to put in a CD-ROM. Which I guess was a big deal in 1999. 00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:34.720 Operating vehicles do not use your player and headphones while operating a motorized vehicle. 00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:37.800 Or riding a bicycle. Now that's what people do. That was going to say. 00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:40.280 With noise canceling now. Also look at this. 00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:46.560 Wait a minute. So the crappy Lexar, we got an actual energizer. 00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:50.360 And Intel was just putting in generic rubbish batches. How do you think they could afford this? 00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:57.120 That card stock, huh? Yeah. And also the security tape. Wow, so like genuinely, this is a brand stinking new. 00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:01.760 Oh no, look at all the foam from the headphones coming off. Like if you handle those, it's going to go- 00:07:01.760 --> 00:07:05.480 Just to degree. See, I'm not going to breathe this one in. Because this actually is like- 00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:09.360 This is gross actually. This is an issue. Okay, we have- 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:13.360 What is that? We have this. Belt clip. Oh! 00:07:13.640 --> 00:07:17.000 It actually feels pretty good. It is metal. It is aluminum. 00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:21.960 Aluminum. Aluminum. Oh, it burned a hole in the paper. 00:07:23.960 --> 00:07:27.960 This sweaty greasy spot. That's acid etched onto the disc. 00:07:27.960 --> 00:07:31.040 If you're only using 150 megs, you're only going like that far. 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:35.200 Could be full of free music. And it's going to put all that schmutz all over the headphones. 00:07:35.200 --> 00:07:38.880 This is a nice cable though. Feel that? It's a nice cable. I know a place you can get nicer ones. 00:07:38.880 --> 00:07:42.360 Well, not right now. They're awesome. But LTTstore.com, eventually. 00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:45.920 They're so good, you can't get them. Dude, it comes with a preloaded digital audio file 00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:49.000 entitled Guided Tour. We need to hear that. We have to hear that. 00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:52.960 We have to listen to that. Digital- Yop! Firmware version 1.0. 00:07:52.960 --> 00:07:56.880 It's a USB composite device. And then it went blank. This is meant to be a baffling experience. 00:07:56.880 --> 00:08:00.680 CD-ROM! No, you missed it! Setup D! Here we go. 00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:04.800 Whoa! If we show this on screen, someone will figure out what that says. 00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:09.720 Good. We'll put it in the comments below. Boost engagement. Would you like to receive free personalized music? 00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:14.200 Yes, recommended. Yeah, yeah, put this on the internet. I hate that there's no progress bar, 00:08:14.200 --> 00:08:17.280 even though most progress bars are a lie. We went past the progress bars. 00:08:17.280 --> 00:08:20.160 The progress bar finished, and now we gotta please wait. Whoa! 00:08:21.440 --> 00:08:25.080 Oh, God! 60 Second Studio Tour! Oh! 00:08:25.080 --> 00:08:28.120 Dot MP3. Oh! Put it in. 00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:31.160 Okay. Success! Yes, Intel Audio Manager. 00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:35.040 First name. Can we both add the same ID? Postal code. 00:08:35.040 --> 00:08:39.000 5000. Okay, that's good. Yes! 00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:42.480 Can we just put the ox cable in it? Welcome to the Intel Pocket Concert. 00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:47.240 Oh! I can studio tour. There you go. We've got hours of mind-blowing audio. 00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:50.720 What's happening with the doors? What was it like? But this is the minute tour. 00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:55.720 Just a few highs and lows over a really big sound. 00:08:56.400 --> 00:08:59.760 What is with the... Stop! Keep the door shut! We're filming in here! 00:08:59.760 --> 00:09:05.720 And we thought brain rot is a new thing. Thanks to the Intel Pocket Concert! 00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:09.840 Woo! Who kept opening and closing the door? 00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:13.720 What was with the door? There's a little knob on the left side of the player. 00:09:13.720 --> 00:09:17.480 Bump it up one click from the circle to the dash. That turns it on. 00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:22.200 Play, which you're doing already. I know. Click the big play button on the face of the... 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:23.880 He's so far away. Watch out. 00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:29.000 Trouble with poets. There could be content match issues with this. 00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:33.960 High wire by the Clarks something. This seems like a genuinely good product. 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:37.360 Yeah, it's got good reviews. This, I'd less enthusiastic about it, 00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:42.160 but maybe maybe our next one will be genuinely good too. This one's fun because it looks heavily used. 00:09:42.160 --> 00:09:46.680 It looks like it's been thrashed through oblivion. It's not. This baby is brand new. 00:09:46.680 --> 00:09:50.400 No, no, I'm getting to that. 00:09:50.400 --> 00:09:53.840 Just something to note about old MP3 players. Everyone bought iPods. 00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:57.800 Literally it was like 80% market share. It was like the Beatles. Never to be done again. 00:09:57.800 --> 00:10:01.200 But everyone tried to compete with it. And it's like competing with like your little brother 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:04.880 or something who's like really famous. Someone looked at this for years, 00:10:04.880 --> 00:10:08.160 looked inside and went, oh, that's no good. 00:10:08.160 --> 00:10:13.760 And then they wrote iPod on it and chucked it in the shell. Like they can't escape the association. 00:10:13.760 --> 00:10:16.800 It's like a call in every game console on Nintendo. Well, I was going to say this. 00:10:16.800 --> 00:10:21.280 Reminds me of when Microsoft paid the NFL. A ton of money to use Microsoft services. 00:10:21.280 --> 00:10:25.720 And they kept calling it the iPad. They're just assessing the play on the iPad. Yeah, this one's great. 00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:29.680 This is an iPod mini clone, essentially. Except for the interface. 00:10:29.680 --> 00:10:34.280 The pocket DJ. But for like 20 years, people have opened this box, 00:10:34.280 --> 00:10:37.640 looked in it and went, I don't want that. Oh, feel the head. 00:10:37.640 --> 00:10:41.400 Oh, you know, actually that feels pretty good. Oh, oh, stickiness. 00:10:41.400 --> 00:10:45.240 Yeah, it's got the rubberized ends on it. I think this is 2004. 00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:48.400 This is like iPod mini days. And man, pirating was out of control. 00:10:48.400 --> 00:10:51.720 Metallica was on the phone with Dell like, tell them not to steal, tell them not to steal. 00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:55.760 This has Microsoft plays for sure certification. 00:10:55.760 --> 00:11:00.680 Five Gigabyte. Holy smokes. This is huge. And look, the birth of mini USB. 00:11:00.680 --> 00:11:03.760 That's actually a nice cable. If it wasn't an absolutely obsolete standard. 00:11:03.760 --> 00:11:07.120 It feels nice in the hand. It looks decent. Got Phillips screws in it. 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:10.640 Should I get my LTT precision screwdriver from LTTstore.com and bust that out? 00:11:10.640 --> 00:11:14.040 Dude, you're such a shill and I love it. We are plugged in. 00:11:14.040 --> 00:11:17.240 Whoa! There's light. Ticking a while to start. 00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:20.280 Maybe the, the drive is all blocked up. It's never. 00:11:20.280 --> 00:11:23.360 It's not, I don't feel it moving. That's not good because we should. 00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:26.840 I hear it. It is moving. I hear it. Honestly, it would have booted by now. How do you know? 00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:29.920 Because I have a lot of these old MP3 players. 00:11:29.920 --> 00:11:34.520 It should have worked already. Get round of applause for the Dell logo, everybody. 00:11:34.520 --> 00:11:38.000 That's it. I'm opening up. Give it. Look, you guys sent me a dank pods one. 00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:42.600 Look at this and you put dank pods on it and it's green. It's like no one wants you to get in this thing. 00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:48.760 Okay. We've lost some plastic. Wow. Yeah. That's the absolutely tiny little micro drives. 00:11:48.760 --> 00:11:52.160 The takeaway, please don't steal music. All right. We got two more. 00:11:52.160 --> 00:11:56.040 This is the one I'm the most excited about and the inspiration really for bringing this here. 00:11:56.040 --> 00:11:59.120 Cause this is some proper wacky PC stuff. 00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:03.320 Freakin hip zip. These are click drives, I believe they're cold. 00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:06.520 It was like spinning magnetic meteors last gasp 00:12:06.520 --> 00:12:09.880 at fighting off solid state USB drives. 00:12:09.880 --> 00:12:14.720 And they're horrifically unreliable. Most people who've handled them, they just don't work. 00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:18.920 But 80 megabytes each. 80 megabytes. Huge. 00:12:18.920 --> 00:12:23.040 That's like a 10th of a CD. And infinitely times more fragile. 00:12:23.040 --> 00:12:26.320 Like these are so slim. And like, I mean, no one bought this. 00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:30.240 Can you believe that? No one bought this at all. Oh, you got to show the techie stuff. 00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:33.400 Cause this is a tech channel. System requirements. System requirements. 00:12:33.400 --> 00:12:36.840 The techie stuff you need to know. Eight comes with two discs, which is very... 00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:40.320 Oh, they're 40 megabyte. That's why it's 80 megabytes included. Those checks. 00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:45.880 They were lying. They're 40 megs each, not 80. It also doubles as an external 40 megabyte pocket zip drive. 00:12:45.880 --> 00:12:50.400 This thing's such a nugget. This one comes with a digital audio player carrying case. 00:12:50.400 --> 00:12:52.320 You were breaking it. Crack it open. 00:12:55.360 --> 00:12:59.200 Nothing. One. 00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:02.360 Cable. A plug that doesn't work in my country. 00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:06.000 Thanks for purchasing this Omega product. There is my chippy. 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:10.240 It sounds... Oh, and tiny little cassettes. These are so fragile. 00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:13.480 This is not good. Enhance. 00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:16.640 Whoa, we got the sporty ears. What are they called? 00:13:16.640 --> 00:13:20.320 Labtech? They've just stuffed it with non biodegradable everything. 00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.600 It's like, don't want that to collapse. Hang on, someone's ripped into this. 00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:27.440 But it was sealed. I cut it open. It was in plastic. Who would want this? 00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:32.440 Now that's how it's meant to feel. Considering it has no media in it currently, 00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:36.240 feel the weight of it. That's chunky. Stop! 00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:40.000 Comes with two discs, hatefully. Omega wear. Omega wear. 00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:44.000 Yo, we got another key for a music match jukebox. Oh, because we lost the first one. 00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:48.120 People stole it. Now that takes me back. The old translucent cable. 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:53.800 Oh, and we have another proprietary end dingle on it. So it charges via a like barrel connector. 00:13:53.800 --> 00:13:58.240 Yep, because USB couldn't do it. Early USB couldn't charge first device. 00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:00.240 It's why the first iPod used firewire. 00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.840 Oh, Omega. It's got a little, it's got a throbber. 00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:09.080 Insert a disc. Do it! Which way does it go? 00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:12.720 Yes, yes. Okay. Tell me what happened. 00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:15.960 It turned off way. This is so common for most of these ancient nuggets 00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:19.760 is that they don't do anything. Have you noticed all of these are silver and blue? 00:14:19.760 --> 00:14:23.200 That was the late 90s, early thousands. Updating the registry. 00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:26.280 Oh my God. Your kernel has been compromised. Hacked, hacked. 00:14:26.280 --> 00:14:29.720 One or nothing, there's songs on this. Get our overbuilt speaker in here. 00:14:29.720 --> 00:14:33.080 But look at where the fricking headphone jack comes up. 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.880 They like forgot, they like put all the other ports and they're like, oh, shh. 00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:40.720 Hey! These work? 00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:46.000 This is playing off of spinning garbage. Well, now you've done it. 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:50.240 Oh dear. Did it just die just then? Still, the audio's not outputting. 00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:54.040 Yeah, these are known to be unreliable, can you believe? I think she's dead, bud. 00:14:54.040 --> 00:14:57.160 I don't know, I'm still using it. Adam, Adam, stop. 00:14:57.760 --> 00:15:01.480 Just stop it. Get some help. Do you wanna try and plug it in and see if it detects? 00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:04.920 Yeah? Yeah, it says it's connected there, it doesn't say it's connected up here. The hip zip's no more. 00:15:04.920 --> 00:15:10.400 We heard a song on it. That's pretty epic. Oh, you gotta have it connected when you reboot? 00:15:10.400 --> 00:15:13.400 Oh! Oh! Oh! 00:15:13.400 --> 00:15:16.560 It's there! It's there! Congratulations! 00:15:16.560 --> 00:15:20.680 Used, 16.7 megs. That's rough, if there's four songs in here. 00:15:20.680 --> 00:15:24.600 It is actually still alive. Do you think the other CD has other stuff on it? That's CD. 00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:29.560 Disc life status, 100%. Subscribe my son, 16, a bit fat. 00:15:29.560 --> 00:15:33.920 In fact, you gotta restart the whole computer and have it plugged in. 00:15:33.920 --> 00:15:38.160 There's my chippy. Oh, yeah, no, it just, it recognizes that there's nothing there now. 00:15:38.160 --> 00:15:41.840 If this is hot swappable, that would be amazing. It's done it. It's hot swappable. 00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:46.080 We've got the same song. It's exactly the same. The Swingerillers and Dick Swab. 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:50.200 Excuse me? They give you the same stuff on both discs 00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:53.000 because maybe they're guessing one of these is gonna brick in post. 00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:54.800 Oh! 00:15:57.880 --> 00:16:01.040 Dick Swab. Wow, it still works. 00:16:01.040 --> 00:16:04.080 Good for it. That was awesome. I love the hip set, okay? 00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:09.240 Both of these, we got a good 30 seconds at each of these before they compound into oblivion. 00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:12.600 I like how nearly everything is broken immediately. 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:16.280 Straight away. I swear I've heard Linus bring up that he had one of these as a kid. 00:16:16.280 --> 00:16:20.000 Maybe I've just dreamt that and made it up and it's just absolutely not true, 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:24.760 but I swear he's mentioned this. And this was the best music dingus 00:16:24.760 --> 00:16:28.040 that you could get at the time. It's like six gigs and it's got a butt. 00:16:28.040 --> 00:16:32.240 Look at that dumper on it. Yeah, that's chunky. 00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:35.600 Oh, Linus is here. Did I come in a little faster? 00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:39.880 That was great. That was a good segue. So we've been looking at all of these whack 00:16:39.880 --> 00:16:45.400 little MP3 players. That one totally worked. That one totally lasted for longer than 20 seconds. 00:16:45.400 --> 00:16:49.400 You seen these? Whoa, that's sick. 00:16:49.400 --> 00:16:54.560 It's basically the guts of a floppy disc. The last gasp of spinning magnetic media 00:16:54.560 --> 00:16:58.240 versus flash drives and whatnot. I love it. It's yours. 00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:01.280 Firewire and everything. Yeah, I don't want any more. So that's yours. 00:17:01.280 --> 00:17:04.880 You can have it, mate. Thank you. And you've got something else, right? 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.880 Yeah, well, I mean, you've hidden it. You've taken it away. 00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:13.440 Just close your eyes. So he assures me that this is a gem from your childhood. 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:18.120 I don't know. Is it an RCA lira? I've got one of them, but no. Did you have one of these? 00:17:18.120 --> 00:17:22.680 Oh, God. I didn't, but kids with more money than me did. 00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:28.680 These were so expensive. Yes, they were. And this is brand new inbox and it's yours. 00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:32.840 You can have it. Yeah, where are those kids with more money now, huh? How did you get this? 00:17:32.840 --> 00:17:37.760 Well, the trick is no one wants them. Right. And so all of these were maybe 10, 20 bucks each 00:17:37.760 --> 00:17:42.520 about six, seven years ago when I first found these. They were just being dumped on mass. 00:17:42.520 --> 00:17:46.280 And sure enough, I get it and open it and it's still brand new in it. 00:17:46.280 --> 00:17:50.160 Dude, it supports EAX. Yes. Six gigs. 00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:55.920 Like back when this thing came out, that was an ungodly amount of music storage. 00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:59.240 Eight megs of DRAM buffer. Wow, that's an investment that paid off. 00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:02.720 Wait, get that out of there. This guy's got RAM. Some things have aged well. 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:06.520 Some things not so well. Six gig hard drive, a hundred hours. 00:18:06.520 --> 00:18:11.360 Okay, that's pretty good. Four hours of battery life on four nickel metal hydride batteries. 00:18:11.360 --> 00:18:15.040 Yeah. You only need a hundred batteries to listen to all of your music. You're right. 00:18:15.040 --> 00:18:18.920 It's totally new. At least I hope so. I've made sure not to pick through it. 00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:23.120 No, it's brand new. This tape has never been opened. 15 watts. 00:18:23.120 --> 00:18:27.480 Whoa. You can go with our other ones. 00:18:27.480 --> 00:18:31.000 Yeah, don't put them on your head. You will never get all this bits out of your ears. Oh, dude. 00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:34.920 Go play to tip it in. Is there like foam actually like holding up? Oh wow, these are really uncomfortable. 00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:38.200 No, come on. I can't get my ear to unfold. 00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:42.080 There we go. I gotta pull it through there. Hey, butt, butt. 00:18:43.520 --> 00:18:46.760 Just like the commercials. It's gonna hurt you. He's gonna hurt us. 00:18:46.760 --> 00:18:49.800 This thing ain't real good though. That's a heckin' USB cable. 00:18:49.800 --> 00:18:53.680 Yeah, I could make a better one. True spent cables. So, lttstore.com. 00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:57.640 Can you have them be in stock? You visit us once a year. 00:18:57.640 --> 00:19:01.480 I paid my own way. You walk up and you're just like, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh. 00:19:01.480 --> 00:19:04.920 Whoa, it's got a carrying case. No, I think this is a CD wallet. It's gotta be. 00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:07.920 No. I mean, this is when having a CD player was normal. 00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:12.200 Not only that, but I would imagine part of the reason that they would go with a form factor like this 00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:15.760 was that like my snowboarding jacket, for instance, 00:19:15.760 --> 00:19:20.200 I noticed it had been a while since I upgraded because I went to stash my gloves somewhere 00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:25.240 and I went, oh, I have a discman pocket. Does it have like a headphone out? 00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:31.240 Yeah, that's like. Whoa, dude. Back when they used to put durable ports on things. 00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:36.040 Got that big chunky B, if you know what I'm saying. Man, this thing is full of inputs. 00:19:36.040 --> 00:19:39.280 You weren't kidding. Volume control over here, headphone jack. 00:19:39.280 --> 00:19:42.680 And then you've got two line outs and a line in. 00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:46.680 So you could use it as like a desktop DAC? It seems like that's an idea. 00:19:46.680 --> 00:19:50.520 Or a something. Is this an IR receiver? 00:19:50.520 --> 00:19:54.120 Yeah. So if you had an older tape deck, 00:19:54.120 --> 00:19:58.240 or if you had an amplifier, you could literally hook this thing up 00:19:58.240 --> 00:20:01.320 and then you'd have a remote interface to play MP3s 00:20:01.320 --> 00:20:04.480 on your home stereo setup. I didn't think of that. I didn't. 00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:08.040 Yeah, well, you're not as old as me. I'm 36 now. Yeah, that's not as old as me. 00:20:08.040 --> 00:20:11.960 Oh, okay. Well, you're aging wonderfully then. It's all the infant blood that I consume. 00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:16.880 And other things that won't make the cut. It comes with two sets of batteries. 00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:19.920 That's eight hours of listening. Wow. It is too. 00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:24.120 I mean, we've got to try it, right? Yeah. I can't believe creative still exists. 00:20:24.120 --> 00:20:29.200 What do they even make now? I have a Sound Blaster card in my PC. I bet you bought it years and years and years ago. 00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:32.800 Months ago. Really? You just bought a sound card? Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:20:32.800 --> 00:20:37.120 I realize who I'm talking to. So this is gonna maybe come across a little bit. 00:20:37.120 --> 00:20:40.360 You are aware of USB DACs, right? Yeah. 00:20:40.360 --> 00:20:43.720 Yeah, okay. PCIe is cool. And you have to rip your PC apart to get in there? 00:20:43.720 --> 00:20:47.160 It's fun. Okay. Install all of it. It's not my computer. 00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:51.200 Blow it up. Just hit okay. I don't want the jukebox tutorial. You're gonna need to sync this or something. 00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:55.400 Register now to enjoy a host of benefits. Quick, do it. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. 00:20:55.400 --> 00:20:59.000 Use only creative nickel metal hydride batteries. 00:20:59.000 --> 00:20:59.840 No. 00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:08.240 Yeah, this dude loves 3D. What are you guys talking? You know, these are not sound isolating at all. 00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:11.640 Crap. What about 3D? 3D music videos. 00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:16.080 Oh yeah, what was your first music play? My first music player was a Discman, 00:21:16.080 --> 00:21:19.520 obviously, because I'm older than you, but my first, I also had a Discman. 00:21:19.520 --> 00:21:23.160 My first MP3 player though was actually an RCA Lyra. 00:21:23.160 --> 00:21:26.800 And I sprung for the 64 megabyte model 00:21:26.800 --> 00:21:29.840 because the 16 one was like comically small. 00:21:29.840 --> 00:21:33.440 It existed only so that they could say it started at $99 00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:37.040 or whatever the pricing was. You wanted the, at least the 32, 00:21:37.040 --> 00:21:41.120 but you wanted the 64 megabyte model. And I'm not misspeaking. 00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:44.800 Megabytes, 15 songs. But hey, that was an album. 00:21:44.800 --> 00:21:49.000 And it didn't skip. It didn't skip. It didn't skip. I remember this actually sounding really good. 00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:53.000 It's meant to be like beyond CD quality sort of thing. Yeah, do you remember using these? 00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:56.000 No. Whoa, that's actually 3D rendered there. 00:21:56.000 --> 00:22:00.920 It's a tutorial. I'm turning this beast on. But you're not using the official creative batsman. 00:22:02.080 --> 00:22:07.080 I'm sorry, it's yours, it's yours. Wait, they want you to charge the batteries in the device. 00:22:07.080 --> 00:22:10.320 Oh, it's the charger as well. Before first use, charge the batteries continuously 00:22:10.360 --> 00:22:13.360 for 12 hours, ensure the unit is powered off during the first charge. 00:22:13.360 --> 00:22:17.880 But I've seen devices before that just will not turn on 00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:20.960 unless they've been plugged in. It's more of a new paradigm, but. 00:22:21.880 --> 00:22:26.040 Uh-oh. Where's yours? So we can just fire one up and have it work. 00:22:26.040 --> 00:22:30.200 So we can actually look at it. Nice gift, huh? That's yours. Okay, hold on, hold on. 00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:33.280 Maybe I just, maybe I put these in wrong. Maybe I put them in wrong. I did. 00:22:33.280 --> 00:22:37.320 I did. No way. That's embarrassing. Hate for that to be in a video. 00:22:37.320 --> 00:22:40.560 No, I'm not even embarrassed. Okay, look at this. 00:22:40.560 --> 00:22:43.720 Okay, which side's negative? Oh no, I see what's happened. Okay. 00:22:43.720 --> 00:22:46.920 Xbox controllers. They flip, but the springy bit doesn't. 00:22:46.920 --> 00:22:53.360 That's. That's maniacal. I've never seen a spring not be the negative terminal. 00:22:53.360 --> 00:22:56.880 Okay, no, it's gotta be. This is actually devastating. 00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:02.000 I was really pumped about this being brand. Cause like, this would actually be fun to have on the desk 00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:06.240 and it actually uses a music player cause they sound good and it lives on a desk 00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:09.560 and it's fucked. You found the other one, it's dead too. 00:23:09.560 --> 00:23:13.160 We must be doing something wrong. Yeah, that's it. I remember it being annoying to get going. 00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:16.320 You hold the play button for two seconds. Held it for four seconds. 00:23:16.320 --> 00:23:19.920 Did you put the creative batteries in here now? I did. Let's plug it in. 00:23:19.920 --> 00:23:23.200 Let's see if the computer detects it. This is everything that's included on it. 00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:26.480 You get several albums of classical music. 00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:29.720 Probably cause it's free license and no one's copyrighting it anymore. 00:23:29.720 --> 00:23:34.560 And lots of jazz music. So maybe it was just all the stock music on it. 00:23:34.560 --> 00:23:38.840 Several contemporary songs. Ray Gunn, isn't that the Australian breakdowns it? 00:23:38.840 --> 00:23:42.200 You get the entirety of Frankenstein on audio book. 00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:46.600 No, no, don't. It's copyright or something. Huh. One last thing I want to try. 00:23:46.600 --> 00:23:50.440 Oh, hey, I have a gift for you too actually. This is a lot more expensive than it looks. 00:23:50.440 --> 00:23:54.360 This protects you from the 5G. I can feel my DNA being cured with every second. 00:23:54.360 --> 00:23:57.400 Yeah. This is excellent. If you just want to like ironically put that 00:23:57.400 --> 00:24:00.760 on your stuff for a little bit, I guarantee you that people will notice 00:24:00.760 --> 00:24:05.280 and they'll comment. Cause this is like the brand name one. Are they comments that I want? 00:24:05.280 --> 00:24:08.760 I don't know, they'll maybe be funny. Well, thanks. You're welcome. 00:24:08.760 --> 00:24:11.560 One inanimate object to another. So. 00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:16.960 Remember this thing you didn't have in your childhood? You still don't have it now. 00:24:16.960 --> 00:24:21.040 That's not a conclusion to a video. I don't know what is. What's been an honor to waste your time? 00:24:21.040 --> 00:24:25.320 Thanks, Ray. Well, thanks for protecting me. 00:24:25.320 --> 00:24:29.400 You're welcome. I feel better with every second it passes. And thanks to you for watching this video. 00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:34.360 If you enjoyed this video, why don't you check out the last time Dank Pots was here and we looked at audio snake oil. 00:24:34.360 --> 00:24:39.400 Yeah. Yeah. The difference was that stuff didn't do anything. 00:24:40.920 --> 00:24:41.760 Hey.
