Can you use the USB port to play stored music or is it just a charge port? lf it does is there a menu displayed so that you may choose playlists?

Actually it is NOT a charging port. I have played songs on the USB but have never divided them into playlists so can't help you there. Sorry

It is a charging and playback input for the speakers. Playlists are done on your device not the speaker system.

Not sure if you can play the USB audio, I tried and couldn't "find" the file to play it after I plugged it in. You may be able to play the disc, I've never tried that option, but you won't have the words on the screen. I also use mine as my DVD player for movies, etc when not using for karaoke

There's one USB port that's for MIDI connections with a computer. Apparently songs can be uploaded or downloaded -- but I've never used this stuff.

I'm uncomfortable with the yes answers since, as far as I can tell, the USB port is only for updates. The USB port is a good power source for small portable speakers (e.g. those from iHome).

The music just plays. You can forward one song at a time or fast forward or even skip back. The downside of playing from a USB drive is that you cannot see what is on your USB drive so if you want to play a specific song you will need to remember the order of the songs on your drive. Or just let it play through the pieces and skip them as you wish. You transfer the music files to your USB drive using a computer.

I was able to use the auxiliary port to play my android phone. Regarding the USB port, I picked up a cheap mp3 player download my music and plugged it in without a problem. Hope this helps a little. Stan

If you are referring to a USB drive externally, and yes it has a USB port on the front right hand side. You can load music on that and listen too

Any USB works, You must load a playlist of the music you want to hear onto the thumb drive and it will play them in sequence or random I believe, It can't record to the drive just play.

I was able to play music on a USB flash drive when running from the battery. If I plugged it in, the music would not play. However, I can play music on a MicroSD card when the speaker is plugged in or running on the battery. We use it to play calming music for our dogs when we are out of town, so being able to have the speaker play while plugged in was important.I hope that answers your question.

I actually have my mp3 music on the computer and download it there. Then I hook up the mini usb to the USB and I can open the folder to view contents (you should get a windows pop-up) and then just drag music from my music folder to and/or from this folder.

Hi Download songs from your PC/laptop etc.or where ever you can to your usbstick/pen drive. Its not vital but the most important thing is the USB stick or Pen drive must be a 2GB one, not more than that. Otherwise it won't work on this system.Thanks.Ajay

This is a charging dock, connected to a wall charger or your computer. Music would be played via bluetooth or connected to a speaker through the headphone jack.

A flash drive with music will play. I pligged in my phone but it only charged it. Great radio though. You dony have to cut anything out if you have room on your console. Glad I bought it!

No USB port--strictly a CD player and radio. I do not know how one could play mp3's with this. I also had to use amplifying headphones with the used player I bought since the volume is quite low with regular headphones. Batteries do seem to last quite a while, however. Regards, Doug B.

You can connect it to any USB port and will charge while playing. You can also play through external amplified speakers. I hope it helps.

Hi Tim W. It is just an imput that is connected to the rear usb of a radio, but it all depends on the radio you are using. Some Radios are capable of charging a device others not. In my case I just use it for playing music stored on a usb flash drive.
