MP3 player batteries need to be charged very often. After a while, your MP3 battery will get old and need to be replaced. Since it's cheaper to replace the battery than replace the system, many people opt to purchase a new battery to swap out with their old one.
Charging Your Battery
MP3 players are powered by one of three ways: Charging docks with speakers allow you to listen to your music aloud while your battery charges.
'''Remember''':
* It is always good to have extra batteries on hand in case your MP3 player dies and you aren't near an outlet to charge it.
* You aren't able to replace the batteries on some MP3 players, such as iPods, meaning if your battery no longer holds a charge, you will have to send it in to be fixed or purchase a new one.

Replacing Your Battery
The easiest way to replace a lithium-ion battery is to call the dealer where you purchased the MP3 player. Alkaline batteries, however, are easy to be replaced as they are sold at any local department or grocery store.
Signs that you may need a new battery:
* The player no longer holds a charge.
* The player needs to be charged for longer periods of time than usual.
* The computer is not recognizing your MP3 player.
