A really cheap way to make a device better than an ipod and with as much memory as you can carry (you could carry like 200 Gb and barely notice. Good luck finding your song though...)
This was insired by a conversation with a man on a bus.

Signing UpStep 1Buy The Equipment
The Phone
Buy it used and online. You should be able to find a good music phone on the Internet for like 5 bucks.
NEVER BUY FROM A STORE.
If you buy the phone from a store then you will probably have to get a contract and I don't like Verizon (they're too expensive).
MAKE SURE THE PHONE HAS A SLOT FOR A MICRO SD CARD.
If the phone does not, then it won't work for this application. Though most new phones do. Still, its better to be safe then sorry.
The Micro SD Card
I got a 2 Gb micro SD card and the Micro SD reader for $7 on newegg.com. Its very small, allowing you too carry a rediculas (I can't spell) number of them (but I only need 2 Gigs). Plus if you attach the Reader to your phone then you can carry two without any trouble at all.
ONLY BUY ONE READER.
Buying more than one reader is just a waste of money. One reader will read every micro SD card that you buy.
Head Phones
Unfortunately, the jack is too small for conventional headphones. I would buy these from a Verizon store to ensure that you get the right thing.
DON"T BUY USED.
If they're being sold used, then there is most likely a problem with them. I advise against it.
MAKE SURE THEY"RE COMPATIBLE WITH THE PHONE YOU USE. I bet this will be the most expensive item to acquire. Needless to say, buying more then one would be a misuse of money (especially if one of them can't be used with your phone).
Thats It! now your ready to download, organize, and listen to your music!

And also, I prefer KOhit.net for my music. I have to say LimeWire sucks, once you install it, you can't get it off. I use FrostWire instead as my default torrent program. Check it out.
