On the topic of iPod Classic replacements..

It looks like iPod Classic 160GB models are selling for quite a handy price on the used market so I've decided to see if I can sell my 7yr old 6th generation and replace it with a cheap, but decent Android prepaid phone (I have both a Sharp Aquos Crystal and Moto E on the way to try out) with a 128GB MicroSD card. The loss of 32GB of space and hardware buttons will be lame, but I have WiFi at work and can use Plex. Maybe someone will come out with a reasonably priced 256GB MicroSD card one of these days.

Those Fiio X1/X3 players look really nice and reasonably priced, I just wish they'd gone with full sized SD card slots instead of micro. You can get 256GB SD cards for under $100.

They sell adapters, but I haven't used one.

Holy poo poo! I had looked multiple times without luck, but I finally found a couple on eBay. I already have a 128GB MicroSD card in the mail, otherwise I'd be tempted to try this. Probably a nightmare to try to fit in a backplate of a phone though.
