Rating: - Best... MP3 player... EVER!
There are two things about this player, in my opinion, that make it far superior to any iPod out there:
1. You don't need any stinkin' cable or dock to charge it or connect it to a computer. It runs a very long time on a regular AAA battery and it has its own USB connector built in. Just plug it into any computer's USB port and voila! Which brings me to the next great thing about this MP3 player...
2. There's no need to use proprietary crap software like iTunes! When you plug it into your USB port it automatically creates a new temporary drive letter for you to copy your files to, which is so much simpler and more convenient.
Now for the bad part. File copying to this thing is painfully slow. They probably used cheap flash memory to keep the cost down, I'm guessing. So, if you're in a hurry that can be a little annoying. But I'm usually not in a hurry so it's not really a big deal for me. The other little annoyance is the earphones. I don't know if it's just the shape of my inner ear or what but they really start to hurt after a while. So I just bought a new pair of earphones.
In conclustion, I definitely think this is the best MP3 player out there and the convenience factor puts iPod to shame. Go get one.
Rating: - Great
Its a great mp3 player but i really dont like scrolling through what feels like 50 million songs just to get to a certain song. Im just going to buy an ipod. But besides that its a great mp3 player. When i get my ipod im just going to use this for the microphone.
Rating: - Great item!
My son loved this, but he needed the one that also had the fm radio. No problems with this player, and a good bargain!
Rating: - Disappointing
Bought this .mp3 player to replace my Samsung YP-T7J player since it can hold 2X the music and I can replace the battery while the Samsung rechargable lasted only 8 hours on long trips.
The problem I encountered when using the Muvo supplied software, it put half the songs in an individual "folder" format for each song and the remaining songs in individual .mp3 files without the "folders".
Problem with this is the player cannot access the .mp3 files in the folders, only the individual ones. I'm at a loss why it does this and cannot access the songs in "folders". I tried everything and finally just erased them in the player.
I'm not a tech wiz so I might be doing something wrong. Only fact my Samsung never had this problem and is much easier to operate.
It's annoying Creative doesn't explain how to properly download files into this player.
