As a music lover, my media library is what keeps me focused and motivated throughout the day. I admit I tend to obsess over bass levels, clarity of distinctive background noise, and vocal quality. If the sound is just slightly off, I won't be able to concentrate. That is why during this holiday season, what better way to break open those piggy banks than by treating the music enthusiast, and BlackBerry addict, in your family to some of these gift ideas. Whether they are in the house, on the beach, or in their dorm, we've got you covered by putting together some amazing applications and accessories to make sure they get those sound levels exactly right for the ultimate listening experience. Keep reading to see all the great gifts for the BlackBerry music lover and be sure to check out all of our 2012 Holiday Gift Guides.
Gifts for the BlackBerry Music Lover
Memory Cards
Speaking from personal experience, if there is one thing audiophiles need the most it's storage. Sure they can stream music via Wi-Fi music sync or access on the cloud, but there's nothing like carrying around a personal collection to keep them rocking all day long. With the 32GB SanDisk SDHC, transform your BlackBerry into a portable media player to enjoy endless hours of songs and videos from all their favorite artists. Not only do have I all of my playlists, concert videos, and camera shots on there but the extra storage lets me store all of my personal files as well.

Rdio
When it comes to combining social networking and music I prefer the popular music service Rdio. It is an ad-free service that allows you to follow friends or the artists themselves to discover new music to sync via the cloud. Search for your favorite songs, artists, and playlists from their library of over 18 million tunes and listen as many times as you want. They offer three convenient pricing and subscription plans to fit your needs. For those looking to get it on their PlayBook you can find the workaround here.
Slacker
Now that they've filled their SD card and unwrapped their accessories how about giving them some commercial free access to their favorite music stations with a subscription to Slacker Radio. Subcriptions not only eliminate pop up ads but grant you unlimited song skips. Divided into two services, Radio Plus and Premium radio, the former includdes ad-free listening, station caching, ESPN stations, and song lyrics, while the former has all that plus on-demand access to play your songs and playlists whenever you want.

7digital Music Store
As a BlackBerry user and music lover I still like to purchase and download tunes. Thanks to 7digital Music Store I can purchase new items right from my device without having to leave the couch. 7digital MP3 Music Store lets them browse the latest charts, preview tracks, and purchase high quality MP3's. Not only is it preinstalled on the BlackBerry PlayBook and available for smartphones (requiring the use of that SD Card up top) but will soon power BlackBerry 10 as well as its integrated music service.
Neutron Music Player
Are you a BlackBerry PlayBook owner looking for a professional music player to give you the sound quality you deserve? Neutron Music Player delivers not only the best music playback for audiophiles but sophisticated controls as well, including an equalizer and a clock radio. Loaded with a ton of features this is a must for any serious music lover.
StereoTube for YouTube+MP3 Music Player
Another outstanding media player for the BlackBerry PlayBook is StereoTube. It is a great way to listen to MP3's and YouTube videos. It allows you to discover related music, search through millions of songs to listen to for free, play tunes on your PlayBook, and create playlists with your own music and those from YouTube. Toss in the free updates for life and an easy to use interface and you have a great music application.
Once that special music lover is hooked up with all these great applications and accessories make sure you fill their stocking with some of the additional items listed below. Not only can they transfer media to and from their device, but it guarantees they'll have the juice to listen to their tunes day in and day out.
