If you're looking for a stand alone MP3 player for the money there are much better choices out there than the Anydrive, But if you are looking for a way to transmit the music from your MP3 player to an FM receiver the Anydrive is a great choice. Sure there are a lot of FM transmitters on the market but the Anydrive also provides the ability to play MP3's from other media sources not just an MP3 player.
