Great MP3 Player!! I've had multiple MP3's and this one is by far the best ever. I love it! It weighs almost nothing! It's made very well, with a beautiful design. I have the 16GB red player and it's beautiful. The sound quality is wonderful. The picture and video quality is wonderful. The features on the player are easy to use and very versatile. You can listen to one song over and over, or one album over and over, or go through everything on the MP3, etc. You can listen by Album, Artist, Genre, Release Year, or Folder. I also love the voice recorder and it works easy, sounds great - very clear. The FM radio works easy, sounds great - very clear. At first, I thought the FM radio didn't work, and then my husband poiinted out that I probably had to use the headphone, because it acts like an antenna, and sure enough, with the headphones on, the FM radio works great. The FM radio works by plugging into an external speaker too. And finally, a great feature is the ease of the initial set-up. All you do is plug the USB cable into your PC, and then plug the MP3 into the cable. The software installs and does everything necessary on it's own. Much easier than others I've worked with. This player is well worth the money. I bought mine at Walmart. They were $10 cheaper than everyone else. Buy this MP3 player if you need one easy to use that works great!! November 5, 2009
