Is this card a good card for playing .mp3 audio files?

Question

Accepted Answer

While the card will play .mp3 audio files, it would be a waste of money to pay for such a high speed SD card for such a compressed, undemanding file type. This SD card would be put to much better use if you were to try to record or play high definition or 4k video, or when speed is the utmost priority, such as when using a storage device for a homemade aerial drone.

For .mp3 file use only (i.e. when you plan to only use it in your mp3 player), I would suggest a lower speed SD card, such as a Class 3 or 5, as this will likely cost less money. Also keep in mind that most mp3 players make use of Micro-SD cards rather than full size SD cards.
