In addition, the XMp3 includes an auto-record feature that automatically stores up to 30 hours of listeners’ favorite content.

The radio allows the listener to pause, fast forward and rewind through the buffered content. Listeners will never miss a beat, sports play or news item again.

MP3 files can also be stored on the XMp3 radio and managed with the XM2go Music Manager software. With the XM2go Music Manager, listeners can easily organize their saved content plus their personal MP3 music collection on the XMp3. The XMp3 includes a slot for a micro-SD card that makes it possible for listeners to add and enjoy even more of their personal MP3 collection.
