You have three basic options of the type of multimedia player to buy. There is a player that comes with a hard disc for program storage, another that uses flash memory (memory sticks, flash cards, etc.) and yet another using standard CD format with storage of music in mp3 or other compressed formats.
Features, design, usability and battery life differ with each manufacturer. Before you zero in on the model you want, consider the pros and cons of every product.
Your selection is likely to be affected by developments in the availability of online music and video programming. The ability of your multimedia player to share different media formats and protection will matter, too.
Go for a multi-dimensional portable video player, if you plan to watch movies or TV while traveling. Apart from playing music and video, it allows you to view digital photos. Features like recording video from VCR or TV are present in some models.
The player must enable you to record from your TV or other video sources, such as a DVD player, VCR, or camcorder, in MPEG-4 format. Audio recording (PCM or ADPCM WAV) on this multi-media player should be very effective. You should also be able to use it as a camcorder, by just connecting it to a digital camera using a DVR travel adapter.
The quality of your multimedia experience will depend on the speed of loading and unloading of the player. Is the hard drive large enough to store your collection of movies, or MP3 music files, or an album of photos? Also, how useful is the player to carry with you when you travel, on a vacation, or for business?
Apart from movies, there should be sufficient memory to allow you to save thousands of songs or photos on the hard drive, using different formats such as MP3, WAV, WMA and WMA files. You should also be able to view formats like JPEG, BMP, and PNG.
If you want net access, opt for a WiFi model which should come equipped with a built-in browser and allow you to surf the net, and browse your email. Some players have podcatcher software that helps capture audio and video podcasts without having to use a PC.
The battery should allow music and video playback time of several hours, so that you can use the player while traveling. There should be a sufficiently long warranty period.
The complete package should have the portable media player and recorder, headphones, dedicated USB 2.0 cable, DVR station adapter, a pouch, quick-start guide, legal and safety notices.

The era of Molly Ringwald’s profitable collaboration with writer-producer-director John Hughes (Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club) was at its peak with this 1986 film (directed by Howard Deutch but in every sense part of the developing Hughes empire). Ringwald plays a high school girl on the budget side of the tracks, living with her warm and loving father (Harry Dean Stanton) and usually accomp…
This is the movie that made John Waters famous, and quite possibly the film that made bad taste cool. Yes, Virginia, a large transvestite actually eats dog feces as a kind of dizzying denouement to this frequently illogical and intentionally disgusting movie, but by the time that happens, you’re already numb … and you’ve possibly laughed to the point of losing bladder control. The plot revolves…

For his third film as a director and his third film directing Clint Eastwood, stunt-man Buddy Van Horn helmed this action comedy involving a skip tracer, some neo-nazis, and the titular vehicle. Eastwood stars as Tommy Nowak, a bounty hunter with a knack for catching bail-skippers with an array of costumes and characters. After he captures a young woman (Bernadette Peters), he suddenly finds himself between the woman’s good-for-nothing husband and his white supremacist cohorts and the wads of cash hidden in the pink Cadillac she’s driving. With the skin-heads hot on their tail, a romance sparks between the skip-tracer and his captive. Written by John Eskow, Pink Cadillac costars Timothy Carhart and Michael Des Barres. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide

In 1994, following the release of their album The Division Bell, veteran progressive-psychedelic band Pink Floyd set out on a massive international concert tour. As part of their set, the group began playing their classic 1973 album Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety at certain select shows. Pink Floyd: Pulse is a live video taken from dates on the 1994 tour. It not only features the complete live performance of Dark Side of the Moon, but a number of other classic Floyd tunes, including Wish You Were Here, Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 2, Learning to Fly, and many more. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
Pay a visit to the Burger Shack, where the patty-flippers at the grill serve up extra attitude with a side of sarcasm, and customer service is a concept that no one quite gets. Pretty waitress Natalie (Angela Trimbur) can’t get an even break; she just found out that her boyfriend is having a fling and the hungry customers couldn’t care less about her crumbling social life. Meanwhile, brooding busboy Kevin can’t summon the courage to tell Natalie how he really feels about her, and trash-talking manager Clint has the social skills of a lobotomized chimp. Just when it seemed that their night couldn’t get any weirder, a monkey drops in for a bite to eat and a gang of bumbling thieves make a play to rob the place. By the time their shift is over, the Burger Shack crew is going to need something a bit harder than Pink Lemonade to put the evening’s events into perspective. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
This sci-fi spoof stars Frank Stallone (Sly’s brother) as Tony Mareda, Jr., a hot-shot private detective. Mareda leaves the funeral of his father, and while on the road and chased by two gunmen, he picks up a winsome hitchhiker and they end up at a drive in movie. While a Zombie Beach Party 3 film flickers across the screen, a local weatherman and his date start talking about life in outer space, and lo-and-behold, a pink meteorite lands not far from the drive-in. It turns out that this pink Mamma transforms innocent, nubile maidens into pink chiquitas whose lust for men is a prelude to enslaving them and taking over the world. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

John Hughes crafts an exemplary ’80s Brat Pack romance out of the standard Cinderella story in Pretty in Pink. Andie Walsh (Molly Ringwald) is a teenager who lives in the dingy part of town with her terminally underemployed dad (Harry Dean Stanton). She works at a record store with eccentric Ionia (Annie Potts) and is considered a misfit at her uppity high school, but somehow she rises above them all. Her oddball best friend, Duckie (Jon Cryer), is hopelessly in love with her, so he causes trouble for her romantic pursuits. When local rich kid Blaine (Andrew McCarthy) develops a fascination with her, they go out on a date together. Visiting the home bases of each social clique, they are basically ridiculed for their audacity to date one another. When Blaine eventually asks the delighted Andie to the prom, he is threatened by his rich friend Steff (James Spader). The romance versus high school social politics finally culminates at the big night of the prom. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide
Renegade filmmaker and noted aficionado of expressive bad taste John Waters exploded into international infamy with this darkly comic, no-budget parade of the perverse (his third feature film, and first in color), in which plus-size cross-dresser Divine stars as Babs Johnson, a flashy criminal on the lam from the FBI who is hiding out in a trailer outside of Baltimore, MD. Accompanying Babs are her mother (Edith Massey), an obese and dim-witted woman who is malignly obsessed with eggs; her degenerate son, Crackers (Danny Mills); and Cotton (Mary Vivian Pierce), Babs’ duplicitous traveling companion and Crackers’ co-conspirator in unwholesome erotic play. While Babs would prefer to be left in peace, she takes great pride in her status as the Filthiest Person Alive (an honor confirmed by one of America’s sleazier tabloid newspapers), and when Connie and Raymond Marble (Mink Stole and David Lochary) announce their plans to take the title away from her, Babs is not about to stand idly by. The Marbles are a hateful couple who kidnap women, force their homosexual manservant, Channing (Channing Wilroy), to impregnate them, and sell the babies to lesbian couples found unfit for legal adoption; the Marbles then turn the profits back into pornography and narcotics trafficking. Impressive stuff, to be sure, but Babs is not about to take a back seat to anyone in a battle of filth, and when the Marbles throw down the gauntlet, Babs and her family retaliate in a no-holds-barred battle to determine who truly are the Filthiest People Alive. Featuring murder, bestiality, rape, dismemberment, coprophagia, a dizzying variety of sexual perversions, and a performance of Papa Oom Mow Mow you will not soon forget, Pink Flamingos is nonetheless a comedy, and a surprisingly successful one; shot on a budget of only 12,000 dollars, the film has grossed close to ten million dollars around the world, and its success launched John Waters into a career as America’s leading authority on poor taste. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
The surrealistic, imaginative music of Pink Floyd lends itself to visual interpretation like no other band in rock-and-roll history. In this strange and exciting film, Pink Floyd performs live amidst the ruins of Old Pompeii, with special effects and dramatic footage blending into a unique audiovisual experience. Also included in this version are interviews conducted during the making of their landmark album DARKSIDE OF THE MOON, including footage taken from the actual recording sessions. An absolute must-see for Pink Floyd aficianados, or anyone even remotely interested in popular music. Songs include: Echoes – Pts. I and II, Careful with that Axe, Eugene, and A Saucerful of Secrets.
When inspector Clouseau is declared missing, another inept detective is hired to solve the mystery. This latest in the series of Pink Panther films features an outstanding score by Henry Mancini.
With this program, fans of Pink Floyd are invited to revisit how the legendary psychedelic rock group came to be, with a look back at how four softspoken men combined to create some of the wildest sounds of the 1960s.

Created by animators Friz Freleng and David H. DePatie, the Pink Panther debuted in the opening credits of Blake Edwards’s feature film of the same name, but was so popular with audiences that he became the star of numerous cartoons between 1964 and 1980. This collection contains 27 of the cat’s zany adventures, as the Pink Panther becomes a cattle herder out west, joins the army, stows away on a ship, and pilots a jet. Included also are Sink Pink and Pink Ice, the only two in which the feline actually speaks, and Pink Phink, the 1964 Oscar winner for Best Animated Short.
In Revenge of the Pink Panther, for the final time, the bumbling but impeturbable Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) maddens his long-suffering boss Dreyfus (Herbert Lom), sharpens his wits and martial skills with his manservant Cato (Burt Kwouk) and foils the bad guys without ever having a clue about what he is doing. In the story, Clouseau allows a gang of drug racketeers to believe that he has been assassinated and dons a series of disguises as he travels all over the world in order to apprehend the culprits. He is assisted by Simone Legree (Dyan Cannon), the former girlfriend of the drug-lord Douvier (Robert Webber). Though it received a very mixed reception from critics, this, the sixth of the Pink Panther series, did very well at the box-office. Sadly, it was actor Peter Sellers’ final Pink Panther performance before his death in 1980 (the later film, The Trail of Pink Panther was composed of outtakes from previous Pink Panther films). ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
