According to the info page for this list, it says: PC-audio is a list for the discussion of any PC audio related topic such as PC audio software like sound editors, audio players and audio formats; and hardware like sound cards, CD and DVD devices and so on.
I read this to mean that portable MP3 players (which are not PC's) are not on topic for this list. I'll further point out the following: * There are quite a few lists already for different portable media players that get far more traffic than this list, so I would encourage the moderator to not allow the discussion of portable media players on this list. We could easily be swamped by discussions on iPods and iPhones. I've already left several lists since I don't have a device from Apple yet, and I don't have time to wade through all of the discussion on those products. * If the original question were posed to a Humanware or Victor Stream list, it seems like the question would have been answered much more quickly and efficiently. Well, that's my $0.02 and I'll leave the rest up to the moderator and the list itself. Note that I think this is an important topic since, as I said above, this list would become meaningless, at least for me, if it's subject matter is going to become too generic. I'd also suggest that if we're allowing such wide ranging topics then it's even more important to use good subject lines. That way it'll be easier for the different subject matter experts to pick out the messages they're interested in and the people posing the questions will get quicker and better answers. I'd also like to see the whole threads get posted as well. Sometimes it's hard to tell what the original question was or whether the point I want to make has already been addressed yet or not if I can't read through the whole history.
