In Reply to: You can, and transfer them to Pono using various clunky software... posted by AbeCollins on May 1, 2017 at 11:17:26:
It is true the desktop software for the Pono Player (Pono Music World) did provide slow transfer speeds. That is why most users used "side loading". When connected to a computer's USB port, the Pono Player would show up as two separate Flash drives - one for the internal 64 GB memory and the other for the micro SD card (up to 256 GB today). File transfer was as simple as drag'n'drop - in both directions. One could load music from the computer to either Flash drive, or from either Flash drive to a computer, or from either Flash drive to the other. (The player can also be used as a thumb drive to transfer non-audio files from one computer to another.)
Side-loading provides *much* faster file transfer than using Pono Music World. The only three things that *required* Pono Music World were purchasing music downloads from the Pono Music Store, updating the player's firmware, and creating/editing playlists. For insanely fast side-loading of the micro-SD card, one could purchase a USB 3 micro SD adapter (about $10, assuming one's computer had a USB 3 port). Just pop the micro SD card into the USB 3 adapter and entire albums could be copied in a few tens of seconds (depending on the speed grade of the micro USB card).
