LG takes stab at MP3 jukeboxes

It’s not an iPod but the first real attempt by LG to sneak a piece of the digital music player action away from Apple in the UK. This 8Gb jukebox may be LG’s first try in this space but it has a decent range of features to match the sleek looks. Lg_mp3_1It offers support for MP3, WAV, and OGG, as well as WMA-encrypted music downloads and is listed under Microsoft PlayForSure banner. At 14mm it’s reasonably thin but the 1.8in OLED display with a paltry resolution 160x128 pixels is nothing to write home about. It will also play back MP4 videos files. Still, that OLED screen does come into its own when it comes to battery life: a claimed 30 hours for music and fours hours for video. No prices yet but more details about the incredibly badly named MFJM53 can be found here.
