Hello all! Once again, another recommendation thread. 

The search function yielded very old threads, and I figured that by now, technology has changed quite a bit.

I’m looking into getting an inexpensive voice recorder for lectures. Nothin’ special necessary. I’m looking at about only 2 hours of lectures each day, so battery life shouldn’t be a problem. Because I’m looking at something with no bells and whistles, I’m hoping it’ll fall somewhere about $30 – $50.00.

I’m also considering using my Kodak Playsport w/ tripod instead. I’m a very visual learner. In past years, I’ve noticed that more times than not, I can recall not only what the professor is saying, but also how they were positioned at that time. I’ll have to make sure with the professor that that is allowed, however, as some professors don’t allow video recording; only audio.

Thank you! I look forward to reading your recommendations.
