    USB drives are everywhere. Chances are you have one on you right now. Hell, I stepped on one on my floor last night walking to go get some Pop Tarts. So it takes a special kind of design to get me to want to buy a new one and actually take care of it.

    Behold! The Mega Buster USB drive.

    Capcom will be selling these beauties next week for 20 bucks a pop and it will come pre-loaded with all kinds of Mega Man goodness. You will get a link to download the Street Fighter X Mega Man game, soundtrack, wallpapers and two digital art books.

    You want it, just admit it. It’s easier when you admit things.

    First off, I know what you are thinking and no Samsung has not started making birth control holders.

    This, in fact, is the company’s answer to Apple’s iPod Shuffle, the Galaxy Muse. The Muse comes with 4GB of storage and promises 6 hours of music playback. While not incredibly stylish in design it does have some cool features that could make this worth a purchase for Galaxy phone owners.

    The big feature of this player is the Music Sync Android, which lets you sync your music from your phone to the player without the need of a PC. Simply plug in the Muse into your [amazon_link id=”B007VCRRNS” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Galaxy S3[/amazon_link] or [amazon_link id=”B0099LATZ2″ target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Galaxy Note 2[/amazon_link] through the headphone jack on the Muse to the USB port on your phone and bingo, your music is synced.

    With Samsung making huge headway into Apple’s smartphone money with the Galaxy series this is the next logical step in their attempt to keep their brand strong. The Galaxy Muse is available now and only costs $60.
