- Sony sells a portable CD players that has a one megabit buffer that holds
- something like 4 seconds of the music that's about to be played. If the
- player does skip, the player has up to 4 seconds to recover before you
- notice anything at all.

- This is a perfect solution for walking and biking, though I don't think
- jogging would work well.
