You can get a MAS Player which plugs into the parallel port that decodes MP3 in hardware (it has a DSP) I believe there are similar devices around other than the MAS though, I think it works on A2000, not 100% sure though

MAS works on all Amigas, have heard of 68000 2Mb machines doing MP3 with MAS no problem.  People have used MAS for car based Amiga MP3 systems, it is a cool pice of kit!

Oh, and aren't all Amiga's prior to the AGA series all built without utilising surface mount technology?  Excuse my ignorance here, but I thought that surface mounting components made for lower production costs AND greater reliability?  



Commodore used crappy cheap sockets on the older Amigas too, surfacemount is better, but you need to have the gear to replace them if something does go wrong or an upgrade is needed eg. Buster upgrades.

I should probably know better than to argue but it's a point I'm unclear on.
