My point still stands. Why are you trying to shoehorn the Kindle into being an MP3 player?

Also, go buy one of the dozens of specialist devices that are meant to play music and audiobooks and come with SD card slots.

Why force a specialist ebook reader to double as a music player?

And once you take audio out of the equation, even the old 2 GB was more than enough to hold a years supply of books, as I explained HERE.
My iPhone NEVER had an SD card slot of any kind. So I've not lost a feature.

The Kindle originally came with an SD slot and audio capability. Kindle also had audible compatibility. Amazon has been dropping useful features from Kindles. When Apple puts in an SD card slot and then takes it away, I'll complain about Apple. When Apple takes away audio capability, I'll complain about Apple.
