My pixel phone has meager storage. Could I use an old phone with bountiful SD space to serve up media via Bluetooth?
Any ideas if this would work practically speaking?

Some travel routers have a USB socket for media.
They’re usually used to make connecting to hotel Wi-Fi easier (you connect your devices to its ssid, then connect to its admin page and connect it to the wifi, or just plug it in to the lan).
Tp-link ac750, for example
