    in terms of mp3 players, it may not all be marketing nonsense, I found that out while researching ipods/mp3 players for a friend. Typically since they are decidicated audio devices, they support better quality g formats/codecs then typical phones, so being mp3 compatible means it supports those higher qualities. The higher quality will still play on phones but, you just don’t get that better quality.

      I’m not talking about players, I specifically mentioned headphones. A pair of small speakers you stick on your ears.

        yea, I’m just responding with the reason why it might not be, you can apply that entire post to headphones as well. Both need the capability to handle it. Just take a shitty 99 cent pair of earphones from Walmart vs the 150$ pair and you’ll hear the difference

        Saying MP3 compatible that it supports everything the MP3 player does where if it wasn’t you might still have the audio but it wouldn’t be as good
