 not worth it to me December 1, 2008
I bought 2 of these for my daughters last Christmas. Within 6 months my oldest daughter's screen had gone completely black & as of today my youngest daughter's is 3/4 of the way black. I would not recommend this item. It was going to cost more to have Creative repair them then to just buy new ones so I opted for the Sony. I'm much more pleased. I will not purchase another Creative MP3 player.
arrgghh...RESET nightmare October 14, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Eight months of constantly finding a pin to poke into the tiny reset hole, feeling like I'm doing progressivley major damage to delicate innards. Takes more, longer, deeper poking each time. Something's changing in there and that's not good! And every time it freezes up, which is all the time, you poke & poke, wait & wait for it to reboot, then you must re-navigate thru lots of tiny, unreadable, moving banners just to get back to your place. If you can't find your glasses, you're not quick enough to read the banners and then it shuts off. Plus, I got it for listening to audiobooks, and the tech reviews suggested this model cuz of its available bookmarking, but the bookmarks are mostly worthless because they're so awkward to use, both setting and accessing. And the radio, which I wanted so I could listen to a favorite program, is useless. Hardly any channels, nothing but static. I wish I had spent a little more and gotten a real mp3 player. This one's just junk.
Screen died after six months October 13, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was a great product at a great price. I was even able to make it work with windows vista. However, the screen faded and went totally blank after less than six months use and apparently there is no fix. I would not reccomend the Creative Zen V Plus.
Creative Labs customer service September 29, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Greetings to all potential Creative customers,
I was greatly disturbed today when I found out the lack of help provided by the Creative Labs Company to my wife when her 30 GB Zen MP3 player failed to run properly. In my opinion, it's actions like this that are ruining companies and our country's economy. Due to this company's inaction today, they have lost a once satisfied customer. Once being more than happy to promote this product, now we will be sure to divulge to our friends and relatives of this company's lack of helpfulness. My wife asked specific questions of the technical advisors in the e-mail form which were ignored; she was given a form letter, was referred to the website, and was told that she would be charged by the company for further help. She expressly requested the guidance of upper management from the technical support specialist, and this request was ignored, proving that Creative Labs is unwilling to provide any kind of meaningful help and does not value customer service. The menial help that the highly flawed website provided was a firmware application that caused the device to completely fail, and then the last piece of friendly advice that we received was that we should purchase a new one from the company's website. We were given an application that made our expensive device inoperable, and for that, I will never purchase another Creative product again. We have both been faithful Creative Labs buyers for years, and my wife had multiple friends and relatives buy their products based on her recommendations. It is with deep regret that I inform all that Creative Labs customer service has proven to be a bitter disappointment and for this, they have lost my family's business.
 Great MP3 September 15, 2008
This player is excellent for the price. However I do not like the battery life. It is very limited for my use. The battery is great for simple applications.
