    Micro SD card question

    I could have got away with the 16 but for 25 that night at staples but I said what the hell for 15 more get double. At least after formatting I got 30 GB which is like 9 or 10 DVD rips plus some extra stuff using my method. Even though they take up 2.7-3 GB each I don't care; I'm just happy I...
