—

The best (and worst) thing about a garden hose is that kink that stops the flow. I love that kink. And so does the crew that’s whipped up the “Music Flow.” MP3s that spew forth from a faucet with matching earbuds and controls. Flow on! Music flows from the line, As water ...

In its defense for being in the list, it does support MP3, MP4 and WAV files. 2) Music Flow by Min-Kyung Kang, Tae-Seung Kim, & Jeong-Min Og ...
