How long did it take to drain the Reader's battery with music playing?

To be honest I don't know for sure how long it was because I did it in multiple times and not in one go. If I would have to give you a rough estimate it would be around 15 hours or so. The half of that there were no headphones attached. Remember that the battery gets to his full capacity after around 3-4 full cycles. This figure was with the first cycle.
Throughout this time the display showed the Mp3 player so parts of the screen were refreshed every second. I don't know how much power this cost but if you want to be on the safe side then put the Reader in the main menu when your not changing songs.
