Absolutely! I keep a few albums so that when I am traveling I don’t have too deal with multiple devices! Audio is very good on the Blackberry.

I do listen to music on my Blackberry, I have an 8100 and an 8300 both with 4 gigs Micro SD and the same music and videos. I used to use an MP3 player, not anymore.

I do use my BB for music. I’m a musician it is very convenient to carry demos with me, grab mp3s, and share tunes with my band mates.

One problem: I hear a short crackle/pop sound when my BB player advances to the next track (auto or manual). Anybody else hear this? Any fixes?

I have never used my BB to listen to music. I like my iPod too much!

I prefer my BB to my wife’s Ipod because the external speaker is already built in and I don’t need to carry yet another device to hear music. Also, as a lazy dad, I can get my young children entertained in a moment’s notice by giving them my (keyboard locked, of course) BB to run around with while listingin to kids music.

I may be in the minority here, but I use Windoes media player to sync my music to my BB. All the mp3 metadata (including album covers) syncs right over.

Also, on the way to and from work, I plug my BB into the old-school tape-player converter setup in my car and can listen to music and podcasts.

I’m especially excited about viigo’s upcoming rss/podcaster catcher to catch even more audio

I use MonkeyMedia (soooooo much better than iTunes) to sync both my iPod and my Blackberry.

For the commute to work, it’s great to have everything in one place i.e. in my Blackberry.

I have a 2GB card in my Pearl, and I use the A2DP and media player function to listen to music almost every day, it serves as my main music played when I’m on the road.

I don’t see the need to carry multiple devices even if the ipod is so vaunted.

I use my iPod for music. Holds more, and not too drastic in size to toss in the bag for trips, car rides, etc. If I did listen to music on my BB, I’d have to swap out batteries based on my usage for tethering, browsing, phone use, etc. However, if the cards held 30GB or more down ther road, and the BB came up with a great interface, I’d consider it. But if I ever lost my phone…
