   Lazyweb, what is the current marketing name for a standalone device to play music files from a USB flash drive plugged into its USB port?

     @SoniEx2 Yeah BT speaker with USB seems to be it. Battery is nice just to avoid disruption moving it, but normally it'd be used connected to mains. Headphone jack not needed; this is for providing music in social settings.

     @dalias (any more requirements? power source (wall/battery)? portability? headphone jack?)

     Shopper ended up with this which is overpriced IMO but setup experience was literally just plugging in power cable and flash drive, turning it on, and having music coming out, which is way better than 99% of electronic products nowadays so 🤷

     @leon_p_smith Yes but the goal is a small portable device not a boombox.

     @dalias Many (most?) modern boomboxes can do this without any problem.
