XM, Samsung and Napster Form Music Trifecta
“These partnerships will expand the reach of XM beyond the traditional satellite radio platform and open up a new way for music fans to easily and effortlessly access all the music they want any time,” XM spokesperson Chase Patterson said.
Patterson added, “We believe it will become a breakthrough for the portable audio market, in that today people who are interested in using MP3 players have to do quite a bit of work to learn about and purchase new music.”

This upcoming holiday season, Samsung will roll out two flash memory music players that will come with a home kit that enables them to play and record content from XM satellite programs.
“Imagine having your MP3 player be capable of accessing hundreds of thousands of XM songs, and be able to record them and manage your playlists, and then integrate that with the MP3 songs you already have on your computer,” Patterson said.
Patterson said that the players will not be able to capture satellite radio while walking around town. Instead, when the players are connected to an XM docking station, users will be able to record or “store” XM programs with the push of a button. Once stored, the music or other recorded XM radio can be played anywhere—whether satellite radio signals are present or not.
The players will come with a choice of two storage capacities and will be able to store and play downloaded and ripped MP3 and .WMA files. Samsung’s staying mum on the exact hard drive sizes, but Patterson said the larger player will be able to store 50 hours of XM content and the smaller, 25 hours.
In the meantime, Napster and XM have been working together to create an online service that allows XM subscribers to buy music that plays on XM radio. The two companies plan to launch the “XM + Napster” service, which will work in conjunction with the Samsung player.
“Let’s say you’re in the car or at home listening to XM Radio … if there’s anything that you want to hear later, you can press a button [on the Samsung MP3 player] and you’ll be able to ‘mark’ those songs,” Patterson explained. “Then when you get to the computer, it’ll call up those saved songs.”
The user will then be able to keep the recorded versions of the songs, playable only on the MP3 player. If the user wants to export the recorded songs, he or she will need to buy them.

Three Simple Steps On How To Put Music On The PSP
So, you’re trying to stuff your music files of choice to your Sony
Play Station Portable (PSP)? It can be hard if you don’t know how. This
guide shows you the ropes, or how to put music on the PSP, in five simple
steps.
How to put music on the PSP step 01:
If you don’t have one, download and install a CD ripper in your PC. You
can search it over the web and choose from among several free CD rippers. What
this program does is rip your music files from your music CDs, convert
them into a format your PSP can play, and saves the converted files in
your PC. If you’re still lost about this, ask friends who have already installed
it. Ask them what particular CD ripper they installed. Or you can Google it up.
How to put music on the PSP step 02:
With your PC turned on, fire up the CD ripper you have installed. Load up the
music CDs of your choice and ripe the music tracks you like. Or if you have
music files in your PC but are not in the PSP format, use the CD ripper
to convert them. Wait for the ripping or conversion to finish.
How to put music on the PSP step 03:
Connect the PSP to your PC and wait for the PC to detect your PSP as a
storage device. It gets really easy from there. Now you can copy and paste or
drag and drop your favorite songs from your PC to your PSP.

Your Hair Loss Treatment Options
Are you or someone close to you experiencing hair loss? If so, there are many great options out there to assist with the problem. This is not a new problem that people are experiencing, but technology has lead to many more solutions to it. Many of the hair loss treatments are very successful. Don’t give up the fight and settle with living without great hair.
While many hair loss treatments are effective, there are also many out there that aren’t going to work. While many of these products vanish from the market over time, there are many more waiting to take its place. Keep in mind that most hair loss issues have a medical connection yet the treatments are expensive and medical insurance won’t cover the cost. This often leads many individuals to seek out other options on the market.
Frugal Living Tip - Giving Yourself a Reason to Save Money
In the US and much of the Western world, we equate money with happiness, even though our personal experience seldom gives us reason to believe that the old saying “you can’t buy happiness” is anything less than true. We assure ourselves that if we only get a raise or get a better job or win the lottery, all of the stress of daily life will disappear and we’ll have time for those things in life we really enjoy.
This would be true, at least partially, if making more money allowed us to have more money in the bank. However, each raise in pay also raises our desire to spend, so a promotion at work can actually put us farther into debt. How many people do we know who bring in over $100,000 a year who are still living paycheck to paycheck? How many lottery winners end up in bankruptcy court, wondering where all the money went and how they managed to make such a muddle of this windfall that should have set them up for a lifetime of financial security?
An option to spending as much or more than you make every month is to live frugally - and it’s refreshing to see the increase in interest in the voluntary simplicity movement. Being intentionally frugal can actually bring you the financial security that a high-paying job cannot. In fact, if you go one step further to voluntary poverty, as I have, you may be able to quit that job and actually do something that could really make you feel fulfilled.
The one frugal living tip that makes the biggest difference is to simply keep track of everything you spend for at least a month. You probably won’t keep it up for much longer than that, but it will give you an idea of where your money is going, and whether or not the money you spend on each item is really giving you the satisfaction you’re paying for.
However, just keeping track won’t help much unless you have a vision of another way of life that would really give you pleasure or contentment. Saving money for it’s own sake feels like a sacrifice, but saving money so you can retire early and start that little farm you’ve always wanted would be a goal worth working for. Creating that goal may take some true soul searching and many deep conversations with your family.
