I bought one of these amazingly priced tablets last month to be music server. It's on all the time, connected to my Sony receiver via Bluetooth. When I want background music during the day I press Play (screen is always on) and turn the Sony on. I currently have about 300 New Age tunes in a folder on random-play. When done listening I just turn the Sony off and it automatically pauses the Fire.

It's a long, welcome way from the 8-track player ($100 in 1972), cassette tape player ($350 in 1981) and multi-CD disk player ($300 in 1990) I had over the decades. And what a bargain. Thank you Amazon!
