Sony DNE330BLK Psyc ATRAC CD Walkman Portable Compact Disc Player Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I originally bought the highly rated 320 version of this and returned it. The 320 islast years model, the 330 is this years, thats why there are few reviews for this one, it was just recently released.It had a problem and would skip tracks in the last 10% of the CD.I can attribute that to maybe a bit of bad luck, maybe a defective piece.Stuff happens!But I really hated the design and layout of the controls.My fingers are too big, design is poor.

So I replaced it with this model.No problems with skipping and the controls make sense!!

As far as sound goes, it blows away my little MP3 player.Which BTW doesn't show up in iTunes since I bought an Intel iMac.I found a way to get around it, but it was a hassle.

Now all I have to do is pop a 700mb cd into the player, hit play and it sounds great.When I'm alittle bored with what I hear, drop a different 700mb of mp3s into the player.EZ PZ

I'm finished with solid state MP3 players and hard drive MP3 players.I've seen the future.The future is cheap CD players that play MP3s.
