    I have always liked Sony players. Problem with the newer ones are that you cannot simply pause them. When you pause them you have to stop whatever you are doing to hold down the options button for 5 seconds to be able to then finally use the play button again. it is really a stupid feature.

    Only been using since XMAS, but so far, so good. Nice compact player. Options button is also used as Power switch and the Hold function which can be problematic and annoying at times. Haven't used disconnected for any period of time so I can't comment on battery life.

    This is the third one I have bought and I loved them all. I had to replace my first one that I bought 5 years ago due to software virus getting in from my desktop. The latest two are the new version of my first and they are fantastic. Highly recommended!

    This is a very good MP3 player for the price. The guy told me it was compatible with I tunes. Went to download my songs and it wouldn't allow me to so now I have to search the Internet to do some research.

    As always, Sony has great sound and meets expectations. Only complaint is that using Sony Media Go is not as easy as using iTunes to move music from PC to Sony.

    After looking at online reviews it looked like this would be a great player. However, I could not get the thing to work. It got stuck on "creating library" and would never recover even after multiple restarts and using a paper clip to push the button on the back to supposedly reset the machine. I connected it to my MacBook, which did recognize it and it looked as if I was able to load songs onto it, but once I disconnected it, all it would do was keep saying "creating library." I took it back to the store and got a refund.

    It is just ok, not what I really wanted and it never turns off, I even had my 14 yr old who is very tech savvy and he was perplexed. So I always have to charge it everyday.
