Not being able to find a small internet radio to buy we liked, we got

Keeping the phoned plugged into its charger all the time, we are using it
to
play *all-day* background classical music through an amplifier and
speakers.

Since the phone has no 'moving parts' unlike a computer, we are wondering
if
this continuous playing all day of the phone is going to shorten its
working
life ?



Using anything shortens it's working life.
