I was going over an old post about people trapped on a snowbound train for 14 or 15 hours. Then I was looking at another article about downloading ebooks on a Kindle. And that made me think about another possibility. Many readers can also play music. If you could search for and download music, too, you would have a great way to fill a lot of time.

In all probability I wouldn't do it. But the possibility might be appealing to some.

As music sampling and downloads would take more time than just downloading a book the company handling the air time would have to take a cut of each music downloaded.
