Great mp3 for the price
I was really happy about my mp3 purchase. My mp3 arrived just as described. It also arrived earylier then expected. thanks for a great mp3 at an awesome low cost and speedy delivery.
John Ellick's MP3
So far so good! I bought it for $19.99. It was easy downloading music.Took a bit to figure out the mode settings, but the more you mess with them the bigger chance for failure. The sound quality is great and so far it's well worth the money. I just hope it holds up for awhile. I bought a different mp4 player from ebay that died in a week of use. If I get a year out of this one I'll be a happy camper. I like the AAA battery power supply, (no frills is better sometimes.) Buy it, if it breaks it's cheap enough to replace! Don't take it jogging it's fragile!
One Huge Flaw
This really isn't bad for $30. However, it has one major flaw: it continually stops while playing. This is not caused by accidentally hitting the power button (if you use the 'lock' feature, deliberately hitting the power button won't work until you unlock). This is not caused by playing protected MP3s. It seems to be worse in the cold and when it's first started, and jiggling the thing seems to be the trigger.
On the other hand, it's $30, and if you mostly plan to use it while sitting still, it's adequate. I didn't find it particularly difficult to use (it worked well with my MusicMatch software). However, having bought it as a cheap 'just to get me by' player, I've become fed-up with the stopping and I'm buying a different ... Read More
Good product at cheaper price
I like this MP3 as it is easy to load music and play. The quality of sound is also good. However it takes me few days to understand choosing different music folder to play the music. Hence it would be better if manufacturer can provide more details in catalog for the easiness of users.
Great Alternative to the iPod shuffle.
I personally know that iPods break really easy, and shouldn't be used by a kid. Exspecially because of the cost. But I think this small fits-in-your-palm Mp3 player is a great alternative to an iPod shuffle, better yet, this one has a screen!
Mine right now is holding over a hundred songs, and is about 1/3 full. SO I estimate it can hold close to 300 songs, depending on size. It is extremely easy to use, though the main key can get hit really easily and inturupt a song. To load a song, all you have to do is go through Windows Media Player and Sync, or right click on the song and press send to USB drive (then the appropriate number according to your computer).
The only draw backs to this MP3 player is that you can only ... Read More
