e.Digital itself gave a range of song lengths of 3 to 4 minutes, that is why a range of 21 to 28 days is calculated using their numbers.

If one takes the middle point of ave song length of 3.5 minutes and considers it the average, the number would come to 24 days. Certainly not "over 30 days." Something like "nearly" 30 days would have been fine, or better yet, just use the prevailing stat used - how many songs can be stored.

It's just one more example of the typical embellishment from e.Digital. "In the vicinity of HP" was more accurately translated "immediately adjacent to the porta potties."

FWIW, I don't think that statistic is going to cause anyone to be influenced to buy an Odyssey over a competing player with the same size hard drive.
