　　The Function of an MP3 Player

　　An MP3 player, which is one of the most popular electronic devices, is widely used nowadays due to its multifunction.

　　Basically, an MP3 player can download or transfer a significant amount of music of your favorites. The attached devices are easy to use, making it simple to transfer music files to and from your computer and the player.

　　With built-in voice recorder, most MP3 players can record sounds and voices. A reporter can use it to record interviews instead of the old, inconvenient way of writing them in a notebook. With its functions of recording and repeating, students can use it to learn foreign languages, improving their listening ability, recording their own voice to improve pronunciation.

　　An MP3 player can also be used as a removable USB disk. Its data storage function allows you to safely store important documents.

　　Except for its wide use, the MP3 player has its negative effect. Your hearing can be seriously harmed if you listen to an MP3 with the volume too high. Sometimes you may violate other person’s privacy if the recording function of your MP3 player is improperly used. So use it in the right way, and it will does you good.
