Thank you!
It does now, now it shows a usb plug when I plug it in... :)

What is the best for the battery? A total discharge? Or almost dead? Does it matter? Some batteries have a limited number of cycles...

BruceHP:
Enjoy the music and don't worry about the battery.  If you need some advice, unplug when fully charged.

soap:
Deep discharging Lithium batteries can be bad, as can heat.  Avoid leaving it in a hot place (like a car) and you're do more for longevity than just about anything else.

The charging circuitry is smarter than to overcharge...

discharge until the battery is at about 10-15%.  recharge fully.
