radio or through your stereo, etc. If you have an FM adapter, you
can listen through your car stereo -- amazing for long car rides
since you can listen to music, podcasts, or even books. Also, for
parties, I like to create a party mix -- start with lower-key
chatting music, and build up to the big, drunken dance party --
definitely better than letting the drunks "dj" and leave your cds
all over the place.
