 Convenient and affordable May 30, 2005

Great item. I was a little hesitant in buying one because of all the hype behind the Apple iPod, but it seems I made a pretty good choice. Very easy to use, the software (SonicStage) copies files real fast. The Minidiscs can carry up to 5 hours of music at minimumbit rate mode, in which the quality of the songs have no apparent change. It's durable too, I dropped it once real hard and it only got a small scratch (I hear iPods break real easily). The only drawback to this product is the organization of the music. You can't make seperate playlists or select a song to start with, you'll have to search for it, and you'd have to keep changing mini-discs when you want different songs. Those are minimal flaws however that most people could live with, and I recommed this over any MP3 players.
Great MD player... May 28, 2005

As I write this review I am listening to my MD player. This thing sounds so good. The volume gets plenty loud and the ear buds that come with it are good quality. I used to have a mp3 player before I got this, and now I wish that I would have bought one of these in the first place. This MD player has all sorts of different things that you can do to it to have it the way that you like it; even down to settings such as the treble and bass levels. That was one characteristic that really sold me on this MD player instead of another mp3 player. All the different mp3 player's settings didn't even compare with this MD players settings. Another good quality about this MD player is the software that comes with it. It takes a little while to install but once it is installed it is very, very easy to use. Not only that but the MD player copies music really fast (it will copy more than one song at a time). If you want a good MD player for not that much money, I would definitely go with this MD player.

First, I was amazed at the speed it was shipped, so when I saw the package in front of my door a few days ahead of schedule, I was ecstatic. But when I opened the package and muddled through the contents I wasn't let down. From first appearances, this md player was better than I had imagined.
I flipped through the manual, not really reading it, and popped in the software, the entire procedure (of setting everything up to working order) was easy and relatively uncomplicated.
As far as the md player itself, the little display has a lot going on. Because of the size, it can only show the track OR the artist OR the disc name, but the switch between the three is fairly easy, only two or three clicks. Without consulting the manual much, I could figure out pretty much every feature.
After burning the songs straight from a cd (it was a snap!) all I had to do was push the play button and I was blown away with the quality that it played. I burned it on LP4, and I was trying to figure out if it would affect the sound some, but it really doesn't degrade the song at all. It doesn't skip at all, even after I threw it up and down a few times just to check, not a single blip.
Overall, this was one of the best buys and for less then $100, it's one of the best portable players out there. I would DEFINITELY choose this over an iPod.
