Sony Portable Mini-Disc Player/Recorder (MZ-G750DPC)

My only grip is with the remote. I would like to see a back lit remote. I live in Alaska and it can get pretty dark up here. However, other I bought another remote from SONY that was back lit. Other then that. this is the best SONY player/recorder to get until the NETMD players come out.

Cant get any better than this. mp3 players are much more expensive when it comes to media. for 128 mb of media cost $... for mp3 players which is a total waste of money. You will only be able to put on 30 to 40 songs on it. Also some mp3 players have hardware problems such as the nomad players. But the mini disc players are durable and rarely have problems. This unit is ethe best because of its features. This is the only mini disc player that has a radio! Mini disc players are just as light as mp3 players and only use 1 AA batery too! A big disadvantage to mp3 players is that on 2 batteries it last about 8 hrs, but this player on 1 battery lasts up to 48 hrs and also other minidisc players could last up to even 145 hrs of battery life. Even though minidisc players cost a little more money, the media is extra cheap ([money] for 10 discs, 150 songs per disc in mp3 format on the mini disc.) overall the minidisc player is a great thing to buy than an mp3 player because they all have the same features, minidics players have no hardware problems, and of course the media is much cheaper! So buy now!!! (P.S.-sony is coming out with new minidiscs that don't just record the sound, it transfers at a 32x speed burner! It also uses the filename of the MP3 and automatically puts the title and artist in it for you! They have battery life in the 100's and weigh about 3 oz and are much thinner!)

I would like to return this player because ( as someone else has mentioned ) the radio has poor reception and it does not have a driver for Windows-XP.
