Maybe if MS had the feature they'd use it, but nobody else wants to pay license fees, if MS were to want to license it for MP3 players at all. FAT (FAT16) is typical. Newer players must support FAT32 if they can access 2GB flash card partition else they'd have to use something proprietary. The answer then is that you should expect FAT as the default and FAT32 on any device with the enhanced ability to write to 2GB cards (even if it were due to another player in that series/family, if/when the particular unit under consideration didn't have over 2GB embedded in it, or merely due to the features sets of a newer chip, I'd expect any newer designs to support FAT32). |
