Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I spent a while researching music devices from iPods to minidisc players, and ended up adding this mp3-CD player to my electronics collection. First, a few comments on some issues addressed by other reviews: - no, it doesn't play WMA's, but at least for me the package didn't say it would. Most of my collection is in MP3 anyway so I can deal with this functionality lack.- the device is plenty loud for me, and I think I have relatively worse hearing than most people I know judging by the volume I need to set for TV's.- lack of alphanumeric display was a consideration for me, since I already had a first-generation RioVolt that did have a display. But in the end that factor was outweighed in my mind. And not to be making lemonade out of lemons or anything, but it's somewhat fun to guess songs and reminiscent of old-school CD players (without the mp3's). Here's why I bought this player: - BATTERY LIFE. It's just utterly ridiculous at >50 hours on 2 AA's (average battery life of most others: 10 hours). Battery life is probably the most underrated feature I think. Gigs of storage is nice but if the player can barely last you through one whole day without charging, what's the point? I see some of the Sony players appear to have similar battery life these days but they seem more expensive and lack a...- WIRED REMOTE CONTROL. Put the actual device in your purse or backpack and it's as if you have a super-tiny mp3 player. The remote performs pretty much every function. Compared to my old RioVolt mp3 player, load time is faster, and the whole thing just seems more dependable and higher quality.Of course there are things such as FM radio and the aforementioned alphanumeric display that this player lacks. It also can't play packet-written CD's so you have to burn a whole CD if you want to change songs (interestingly, my RioVolt could do this, but it was sloow as heck). If it had these features (and maybe WMA), it would be the perfect mp3 cd player bar-none. Anyway, to complement this player, I also bought a sub-$100 tiny flash-based mp3 player with FM radio, voice recording, etc. (the TDK Mojo). I still feel this was a decent economical choice for me while maximizing music enjoyment.

Product Description:
This portable CD/MP3 player provides some unusual benefits along with the ability to play CDs, CDRs, CDRWs, and CDs with MP3 files. The first is "advanced D-sound technology, which is essentially a combination of a digital amplifier, which helps reduce distortion for crystal-clear sound at higher volume levels; S-XBS and digital audio gain control, which helps improve bass response at higher volume levels; and MP3 re-master technology, which maximizes sound quality from compressed music files, such as MP3 and WMA.
When you're on the go, the No-Skip anti-skip system virtually eliminates track skipping, and the player's heat-resistant, polycarbonate body design makes it great for outdoor use. There's a handy, 6-key inline remote with the Active Style headphones, and average playback time on the required two AAbatteries is up to 90 Hours for MP3s and up to 50 hours for CDs.
