Sounds like buying a CD to me, only in a more "modern" packaging that could actually seduce some people. Also, have you bought music from online stores? The iTunes seems to work well, but all the others are complicated and encumbered with DRM or other incompatibility issues. I have given up on half a dozen of them. . Also I think this idea is good for brick and mortar stores, not online shopping. You're walking by, see something you like, buy the music, insert it in your device and, heck, you might even just copy everything over and throw the card away like candy wrap. . Hey, you should see the Fun Station vending machines that a Brazilian company has created and will be spreading around soon: . http://img362.imageshack.us/img362/4930/img0023750me9.jpg http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/8201/img0024150ee1.jpg http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/2783/img0023950rz3.jpg . I took those pictures myself. The machine is great. It transferred 6 songs to my Berry in 5 seconds via USB. Then I went home listening to something new. Instant joy.

Now all that needs to be done put a micro slot on a dvd player's, stereo's, home entertainment centers & etc. Ronen Halevy is most likely right it is doomed to fail decides it to dam hard to keep changing cards on a BB and what if you have other stuff stored on your card. But anyway cool idea but bla bla bla. I think this would be a good idea they are smaller than cds and they don’t ware out or scratch.
