OpenBSD + Truecrypt + Rip Anywhere Mp3 player (Score: 0) by Anonymous Coward on 2014-05-01 17:23 (#1A8) Give me an MP3 player which has the following features:1. OpenBSD2. TrueCrypt - choice of encrypting all of device with 1st run and in settings3. Rip from any device - an extension to the device (like the front part of ST:TNG ship's dish which separates for example) which allows CDs to be inserted and ripped on the fly without a computer connection, and the ability to plug into any electronic device which has the ability to contain audio files, scan for, and rip any audio files - all with the option to convert them to a format of your choosing4. Complete support of as many audio/image/video codecs as possible.5. Nothing about the device should be proprietary, neither hardware or software.Before you say, "Why would you want to use a device with the MP3 format?" As #4 points out, and you should really know unless you're trolling, if you look at all of the MP3 players currently for sale, most support many audio, image (JPG and more) and sometimes several video formats.

Or are you interested in the video formats: ok, so no one knows you are carrying a pocket device full of pr0n or something? Hardly seems useful to me.On the other hand, some buddies and I rooted through a colleague's ipod one day when he walked away from his desk, and we've ridiculed him mercilessly ever since about his taste in music. Maybe if it had been encrypted we'd still respect him ...
