After Show: The RC@ K@zoo

The 16mb card made me sad

zipzopbeesopdro

So… that was an actual FireWire to USB cable? What is going on 😨

Zippy

Rca is owned by thomson, which actually had part in inventing the mp3 format. I used to think musicmatch was kinda crap, but turns out it used the fraunhofer encoder, so it was probably one of the better ones for the time. I'm not sure if you know this, but it's kinda an unwritten rule that if you want windows xp drivers to work, you have to unplug the device while you're installing them, then plug it in after. Does weird stuff otherwise. Rca also did this weird thing called Mp3Pro which nobody ever used.

"Is that mini-USB?" Cable clearly shows 1394 (Firewire) lol xP

bro why would a toaster need a circuit board? Its just an appliance to heat up food

This was actually the model of my first ever MP3 player. Very cool to see again.

rip sd card

"its like I'm actually putting it in a cat"

Rip that sd card

Tristan Neese

the k@zoo murdered that poor 16MB sd card. rip

Being a vintage phone collector, I IMMEDIATELY knew it was an MMC slot, the second he tried to cram his SD card in. Hard to watch, but I definitely can relate - did this a lot of times during my early phase of collecting phones, before I found out literally NO early 2000s phone ever accepted SD cards!!!

wow this is f@nt@stic, im@gine @ctu@lly pronouncing the n@me of the vid @nd my comment.

you could use sound hound (the app) to listen to the songs and tell you what they are

Andrew Mayo

That's what the ribbon thing was for? I just janked them out cause they were annoying. I swear my brain was manufactured by Craig

Curse you for getting the x-men theme stuck in my head.

I think that’s the second iteration of FireWire.

"RCA" hasn't existed properly since 1987. The company went backrupt and now the name is used by Chinese companies to sell dishwashers. you know. RCA. The famous dishwasher company.

Rhys

I would legit watch a gaming channel where they'd just have the controller slapped onto the screen like ya did here

F for the SD card that was killed by the K@zoo

Lambda

Those headphones are just like my favorite headphones from back when I was still listening to cd's in high school. The Sony MDR-G57 S2's! Elegant name, I know. I remember the foam went bad so fast I was robbing other cheap headphones constantly. They sounded great (for the ears of a 16 year old) and they had that white and orange KAPOW factor only popular in the age of JNCO jeans and frosted tips. Still being sold used on ebay. Not cheap for what they are. Plus they have reflectors on the back so you don't get run over in traffic? Thanks for the nostalgia trip, mate.

Andrew B. Smith

F in the chat for our fallen Soldier. 16 MB SD card.

"Ew!! It's like putting it inside a cat!" I nearly snorted my drink. :"D

Hyperdeath_Kisses

that was weird i burped and dankpod says: "burb for daddy"

They should’ve been careful with the @. K@zoo sounds like Cazzo which is Italian for Fuck.

What is with the @?

Press @ to pay respects for the sad, untimely death of the 16MB SD card. Also are you sure the slot wasn't for an MMC card? If I recall correctly, MMC and SD were cross-compatible, but MMC cards were slightly thinner.

Wh@t @ Nugget. I don't like it at @ll

I own a brand new, pink, EeePeeCee

My dad used to work for Thomson in the 2000’s before it was bought by Technicolor

I Noticed at the top of the Screen There was like Sound Options, It Said flat. Then You said it was Flat sounding, Any chance you Tried Changing It?

Lift

i had this nuggie as a nuggie

OH YOU STICKY NUGGET

that first song was vibin

“Ew gross! It’s like I’m actually putting it inside a cat!” Pardon? 😳

Seeing the device had its own icon for Windows reminded me that modern toasters often have circuit boards in them, and if you crack one open you can connect it to a PC via USB and it shows a toaster as the device icon.

Andrew Ferguson (DominateEye)

I'm so interested in what those friggin songs were. What would you preload onto a K@zoo?

Bob Goodrich

The connection to the MP3 player is called IEEE 1394 and its an early version of FireWire, Interestingly enough it was actually designed by Apple!

I laughed so hard when the SD card broke. I'm sorry dank.

For anyone looking for those two songs, they're "Bugs - About You" and "Francisco Aguabella - Agua De Cuba"

I’m always gonna wonder what those songs were. :(

I can't believe you really let that chocolate stay there under the peeling... I hate it and I love it?

SEX

It has a super secret mode when wrapped in the condom. It enables Bluetooth 0.0001 alpha to listen wirelessly

I had a creative zen player when i was a kid, (first i had a sony discman that skipped all the time walking home). When i got that player i loved the thing to death, im sure its a piece of crap if it was analyzed today. Id love to see the 1 grit treatment on one.

1 Grit it pls

Those things were decent for a kid in 2001, I had one packed with Sims music. Sure the iPod just came out, but you could chuck this thing at a brick wall and it'd be fine. Not fun to use, but no nuggets were back then...

Fuck yeah real kazoos are fun

Wait, did you get this new in best buy, or at cashies?

Bush

So that's a 4 pin FireWire/IEEE 1394 port... To USB. That's just bizarre, but not that uncommon from what I've seen.

Alex Barlow

You, on K@zoo!

So, is that actually a MMC slot instead of SD? The standards were somewhat cross compatible, but MMC's were 1.4m thick, while SDs were 2.1mm. EDIT: Yes- "With MultiMediaCard" is on the front.

innkeeper77

it's sticky because rubber reversion happened and that's when rubber gives up and goes home. it's why you can recycle rubber, like tires

maybe it plays music idkkk......

uhmmmmm gross how he inserts a 15MB SD card into his cat

can someone explain how dankpods knows how it feels to put an sd card in a cat?

rip in piss, 16 mb sd card

_Direkt

I had one of those when I was a kid, my cousin gave it to me lol

was able to shazam both of those tracks somehow

rip ancient SD card :c

I want to do some history vids with them first but it's certainly something I'd love to try 👌

Hey have you tried flash modding some of the iPod competitors? Would be interesting to see what capacities they could handle

A real shame, if I find a better replacement I will promote them to the moon.

Cheers Geek!

It died for nothing but I don't mind 🤷‍♂️

holy shit I had those headphones that were included with this, mine were silver. the little inseets on the side were interchangeable, I had red ones and blue one I would swap out

mychemicalbromance

Man that eBay video had brought up all the bad memories I have of eBay. I have been on that platform for well over 10 years and sold around $1,000,000 on the platform over 7,000 transactions. My main account MacParts-And-Bits is still top rated seller but I am almost out the door the eBay managed payments is a disaster.

Mac-da-Bits

It’s probably already been said, it that slot was probably for an MMC card. Same shape as sd, but thinner

ASBR

Best YouTuber to use my dollarydoo on 😁

🍋

Don't get in trouble with your Ol' Mates now!

Best DollaryDoo Spent.

I just got a debit card and this is the first thing I bought. Best dollarydoo I’ve ever spent! Mom’s gonna be pissed tho.

Just Became A Patreon big fan of your content!

Catn't be thatt Batd right??

Matt Miller

Love the channel! Pouring one out for the poor lil’ 16mb sd card.

Sam Mendoza

Did you contact the ACCC or your state's Fair Trading department? What eBay are doing with approving and then revoking refunds is 100% illegal, and legally you're 100% entitled to a refund for them destroying your packages or unsealing your items if they're sold as sealed

Dang, I use GSP all the time (as a buyer) and nothing like this happened to me. But I'm gonna be hella careful from now on. On another note, I suggest you start browsing your local "Facebook Marketplace". You'd be surprised at the LOCAL nuggets you can find there.

Asaf Sagi

Cheers!

easier to not give ebay any money haha

Hey Dank, really enjoyed your content lately and it’s push me through these stinky times! Your the best.

chiken

On the topic of GSP: someone else mentioned using a mail forwarder. I've heard good things about reship.. they charge a few US dollars in fees but they have warehouses in Canada, USA and the UK. I know it's still ebay... but it's not Pitney Bowes...

I used to have one of these, except mine was orange. Swapping that for a PSP was quite the upgrade a few years later, and then eventually getting a proper iPod

Cant believe it came with duracells. Also that thing isnt that bad. It displays the audio quality 128kbps and you can change the EQ settings.

CnP x

A bit of choccy biccy hurt a lot of people

Oof

chiken

as son as i get a job i need to pay this man more

RIP Blue SD card

On topic of not using GSP - there is a way around them. You can use a mail forwarder to ship stuff from America to Australia. It's similar in function to eBay's GSP, but with none of the bad stuff. I bought an iPod Mini 2nd Gen in mint condition (with its box, too) a couple months ago, but the seller didn't ship to my country, so, instead, I used a mail forwarder to get it. Item arrived undamaged, no slash 'n dash, nothing like that. I recommend.

On the topic of the main channel video From the U.K. here I just use cex for all my electronics as it tends to be about the same or cheaper than what people are selling them for on eBay. Ik you have cex in Australia as green ham gaming has used them in videos, is the selection any good on cex Australia because I always find cex to be a good alternative. I’m assuming you’ve probably used cex as you use cash converters too haha. Great video as always!

Simon Ward

1394... Is that a mini FireWire connector used for USB purposes on the catzoo? Weird!

ieeeeeeeee 1394 is just the non-branded name & spec. for FireWire (Apples name), i.LINK (Sonys name), but they're all the same standard. This connector is the "mini" connector but I think they're using the connector as a miniature USB port as I think this device actually predates the USB Mini-B connector

press f to pay respect for the 16 mb sd card

I make anything do what I want. But the death rate on this channel is very high...

Those gold bodies are rare 🙌

Oh actual? What did he do there?

big RIP in peace in pieces

The stickiest nugget to date

I do what I want 🧙‍♂️. Also RIP 16mb SD card.

🙌🤴🙌

More like stolen...

Oh no I might lose those two songs I have no idea what they are 😨

Pretty wild to be all in on both sides of the coin ie professionally selling iPods and professionally buying from ebay for the channel and how sucky it was in all aspects. Expensive, unreliable and disappointing = ebay.

Nah but it's cool cause no more ebay lol. Legit I gotta stop using that place, plenty of local guys with stuff I need and it just means I take more Cashies trips for Patreon vids 👌

It was painful to hear that SD card broke

Ardimo Harsa

You were supposed to put an MMC Card in it, not an SD Card.

Keiron Wedlin

This is the best $10 (freedom dollars) I spend every month

Eric

Yay

Lots of headphones looked like that in the '90s. I had similar Sony headphones and I liked them. They were comfortable and sounded good to my teenage ears.

Charles Petrosky

I used to get excited when an eBay/Amazon alternative would come along and I'd try my best to support them, but they usually die out in a couple years, and few people use them. And even old reliable Craigslist is dying (and it's long be filled with scams and trash). OfferUp and FaceBook Marketplace looked promising for a minute but they're full of cheapskate morons.

Charles Petrosky

I wanted a pal Sega mega drive to test my multi format CRT so i ordered it from overseas using the ebay global shipping program aaand, it was just the power supply, contacted the seller, they had indeed sent the console. So ebay "misplaced" my mega drive. Theres 120$ that i wont get back :/

Similar but different, haha. The PS3 and plenty of other devices can use both though.

Charles Petrosky

...just saying you forgot to unplug the K@zoo from Windows before shutting down!

Makes me sad thinking how far eBay has fallen. Was such a fun place with a great sense of community in the '90s and early 2000s. Now it's ruined by high fees, heaps of spammy listings, expensive shipping, and the significant chance of getting screwed as a seller. Now I use the site as a last resort if I can't find/sell something locally.

Charles Petrosky

A friend had a band called R@l@ T@ny , and it would forever be Rat, Lat, Tatany to me.

You crossed a line Dank the Nugget wanted revenge

rip memory card ):

K@zoo a.k.a SD Card Killer

I'm like 90% sure that wasn't an SD card slot. I'm pretty sure it was an MMC slot, which explains not only why it stuck in the slot, but why the pins matched. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MultiMediaCard

Mitch SuperKnot

LOL

I like a nugget that fights back.

Karen Sykora

the SD Card slot literally made me cringeee :(

DrewDoesThings

Not related to this vid at all, but because of you I've got a gen 2 mini in a gen 1 gold body with a 256gb sd card in it that I named the iPod Mini Pro Max.

Connor Nolan

Seeing the Music match logo actually gave me a good amount of nostalgia because my dad use to work there.

I named my iPod nugget bc of you

rip sd card

Sawyer GIlbert

Best dollar I ever spent

Oh 2001, when spring-release memory slots weren't exactly a standard. But, I'm still morbidly curious wondering how those X-phones are.

Not the 16MB SD card!!!! it didn't even get the chance to be Slash n Dashed!

what in the absolute fuck. They used a firewire port with a USB connection. Jesus how non-standard can you get.

Charlie

I literally emailed YouTube to ask about my plaque, they flat out told me I didn’t qualify. Then a day later the damn redemption code showed up and I could order one.

Azeria

those look just like the intel nuggetphones LOL

I’m sorry I laughed way to hard at the SD card breaking.

Give us a 1-Grit Stress Ball!

You should do a video about buying things from eBay alternatives like Rakuten. Not only trash eBay for their trash service, but investigate the ways for other people to actively stop using them entirely.

I bloody lost it at the SD card snapping. As sad as it was :((

Your poor SD card. Although... is that really unexpected when you were trying to insert it into a MMC slot? They’re two different card types after all.

That connector is 4-pin IEEE 1394, also known as i.LINK, it can also connect to FireWire if i'm correct

Looks like the port on the device was fire wire 800

Zyrian

I have genuinely lost sleep thinking about whether or not you left the crumbs on the disc drive, and you did, and I don’t know if I’m relieved or horrified

WADE MATE, you actually kept the goddamn crumbs under the CD drive plastic??? The joke has gone way too far, I'm calling the authorities you sick man. P.s. Your editing for the eBay episode was absolutely solid, and Frank is a babe.

I was wrong rip 16mb sd

I feel bad for that sd card :(

Well worth my freedom dollar

wath a nuget cant you try rockbox on some nuget ? XD

The second song included could be a Tropico soundtrack Also, fuck eBay

What an emotional rollercoaster from the first vid to the after show and the ending.

Trieh

Hilarious as always, more than worth the entry fee.

Matt Miller

Would you kindly tell us the name of the choons you play while testing the nugget? Ps: It was lovely to see the choccy biccy disc drive return.

Something happy after ebays shenanigans
