About the mi-vox player

What is a mi-vox player?

The mi-vox is a brand new alternative format music player with its own unique set of advantages. Launched in 2007, it is compact and lightweight, like a slim match-box. It is also low-cost, and has a massive storage capacity – a whole 60 hours of entertainment can be squeezed onto a mi-vox. Because they’re low-cost and pre-loaded, it means you can have a separate player for each audio book. If you lose one, you haven’t lost an expensive player and your whole audio collection. For this reason its great for children. Your child will have their own player for what they’re listening to –for education or entertainment – and if it gets lost or damaged its not such a problem.

Can I pause the story and carry on later with a mi-vox?

Yes, mi-vox has full bookmarking capabilities. It will automatically bookmark the story if you stop or turn off your mi-vox, and it will remember your bookmark even if you take the batteries out! Bookmarks can be cleared and re-set easily.

Why is mi-vox better than iPod?

The iPod is good for music, but the mi-vox is better for audio books. Downloading an audio book to an iPod takes time – maybe several hours – and uses up space. With a mi-vox you can save time and keep your iPod free for your music collection. If you want to keep your child entertained you don’t have to take the risk of lending them your precious iPod. Power for your mi-vox comes from a standard AAA battery, available anywhere and everywhere.

Why is mi-vox better than CDs?

An unabridged book can occupy 50 CDs. Imagine the space, weight and organisational problems created by carrying 50 CDs around with you on holiday. All this is replaced by a
mi-vox that’s the size and weight of a matchbox. You’ll be amazed! Power for your mi-vox comes from a standard AAA battery, available anywhere and everywhere.

Can a mi-vox be recycled?

Certainly! We pride ourselves on our green credentials. If you’re “done listening” to a particular mi-vox and no longer want to keep it, just return it to us using our freepost service and we can recycle all the componets to conserve resources and protect the environment.
