you could buy a rockbox player and add a large memory card for that price.
YOu could by one from las mesa but you could buy one from amazon and rockbox
it yourself.

Hello, Everybody,
You may have heard about a rather small player called "Tiny Tunes." It
claims to have an excellent TTS engine, which means that it will read
textfiles. It plays various audio formats. The instructions tell us
that it will read folder names. Navigation is accoplished with a minimum
number of controls. Its 75 dollar price sounds great!
I strongly suggest that you do not obtain one. The speech is some of the
worst I have heard in my 30 years of computer use. I was not able to
receive any FM stations on its radio. I could write a long treatise on
what this unit should do as opposed to what it really does, but I won't.
Suffice it to say that navigation and response are erratic. When a few
folders are loaded on to the device, it will likely quit responding,
leading to running down its battery.
I truly dislike writing negative things, but I have to do so in this case.
If you go to the Braille Super Store website, be sure to look for the
company's return policy. Among many unbblievable things, you'll read that
none of its products are warrantied. It gets worse from there.
