Journey, The MP3 Player Slash Band

By: Grahm Skee on July 24, 2008 2:44 PM

There may be a few hardcore Journey fans ready to pounce on this deal, but this likely will draw glazed over looks by most or Only The Young. Journey has Faithfully teamed up with ZVUE for 1GB themed MP3 player. The player features 11 of Journeys’ new songs as well as 11 re-recorded classics.

Now you can have Journey, Any Way You Want It from vinyl to digital hardware. So if you are a old school fan, welcome this new format with Open Arms, Be Good To Yourself and pick up one of these players today from Walmart.

Ok, I have to go lie down now, I’m a bit lightheaded from writing all those lame Journey references.

[thanks techzec]

Licenses are cheap, and someone needs money... oh brother. Where's my Doris Day player?

I think it's kinda' cool. It'll bring some soccer mom's (and dad's) into the tech age and they won't even realize it.

Looks much like the player that was on here a while back with an American flag finish, no?

Now if this had come out during Journeys day in the sun.. sold at concerts it would have been one hot item. Still, it makes me a bit nostalgic for all those concerts I went too, during the golden age of rock... sigh.. Oh Sherrie...the time sure went fast....

Pretty sweet lookin'.
If they come out with a Rick
Astley one, I'll definitely invest.

I think this is a good idea. Most Journey fans are above 40 years old, and people at that age don't really know about current technology, etc. So, now they can buy this media player and listen to Journey songs right out of the box. I'm going to buy one as a gift for my mom.

Geez, thanks sick.of.ipods. We, 40+, aren't all living in the 20th century. I would get one but.. I already have an Ipod with Journey tunes in it, put in by me!

Thanks Cindy... you beat me to replying to sick.of.ipods with a nasty comment of my own.. and then beating him/her over the head with my walker. ;)
Yes, those of us over 40 can't possibly know anything about technology... that's why all tech achievements through time, have been made by the under 16 yr old crowd. You might want to rethink your rather limited understanding of experience and age....

Heheh... Journey really made the jump into the 21st century - here's their Second Life island: http://www.journeymusic.com/multimedia/island_book.html

oh brother, is right

Original Jrny is cheesy enough, but Journeylite in it’s own karaoke machine is just going too far, lol

is there ANY musical integrity left out there ;-PPPP

Samsung P2

The Samsung P2 has been gaining quite a following lately and rightfully so. If you are looking for something well designed, innovative, and feature packed; you should look into this full touch screen wonder. The Bluetooth feature set is what I find to be the most intriguing, with the ability to tether to your phone to make calls or wirelessly transfer with no restrictions to other P2s. Check out the review or stop by our ever growing P2 forums to get the latest info.
Toshiba Gigabeat T400

The Gigabeat T400 is without a doubt my favorite flash player at the moment. It does have one major setback in that it only comes in a 4GB, shame on you Toshiba. What makes me love this player is it's ultra slick sexy design, very easy- just pick up and use interface, and killer sound quality that would make Cowon users envious. This player is a must buy for anyone who sports a premium set of headphones. Full review to come but you should really just buy one.
SanDisk Sansa Clip

The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.
Cowon iAudio D2

The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.
JAYS q-JAYS

The q-JAYS are great in ear phones. They offer excellent clarity, silky treble, realistic midrange, and a nice bass response. They're comfortable, incredibly tiny, and come with a huge selection of accessories. While they certainly are analytic phones, they're still fun to listen to. The q-JAYS respond well to EQing, and can be tweaked to fit almost anyone's sound preference. Recommended for anyone owning a good sounding player and well encoded audio files. Check out our review.
