This is a great MP3player. I got it for my Tenth birthday 5 years ago and i'm listening to it write now! I love it and I do not think I'm gonna get a new one for a while!

I got this player in 2001, as a freebee from Apple with an iMac.
I used it constantly---32 MB doesn't hold many songs, but it was wonderful for commuting on the bus, walking or biking. I used it every day, right up until I was given a 30 GB iPod.
Great little player at the time. January 21, 2005
I've had my little Rio for 5 years now and am passing this little jewel on to my youngest son for part of his 15th birthday. For what it is, it's an excellent little player. I use it when I'm studying and when it runs out, I know it's time for a break :-)
My only complaint about this is that I can't seem to find the memory pack anywhere now.
All in all, a great little player.
I use it since 2000, for nearly five years already!! December 10, 2004

Yes I bought in early 2000 it is nearly five years. At that times this player was incredible and as I can see it is still around, and still so.. The memory was high that times now it is a little small but I put my best songs and it is enough for that. Since they are my best songs I repeat and repeat. It is robust great functioning but it consumes batteries terrible. Even it is off it consumes so take the batteries away. I bought NiMh batteries to charge and carry more than one in journeys. USB is very good and to put songs is a childs play. The software makes WMA's automatically from your CD's. Even cddb support is there. The colour the shape is still buzzy and awesome. The buttons are quality. A negative point: there is no radio. It would be better with radio. There is even playlist and other funcitons related that I found ridiculous because with just 32MB it is one playlist and it's enough.. maybe they thought about the legendery "backpacks" to boost the memory which is impossible to reach especially here in Turkey..
Sound quality is brilliant and crystal clear. A must for travellers and gadget lovers (that's me!:)
Cheap but Good September 27, 2004

I have had one going non stop for 3 months and it hasn't given up. I use one to pipe in about 30 minutes of background music in a room that people visit. The software was OK and it got me up and running. It plays WMA files which are smaller then MP3 files and heck I can't tell the difference.
