... storage and data transfer, not just music. Frontier Labs assume that you are already kitted out with the means to create (i.e rip CD's) and assemble mp3, as they supply no software for this. However, anyone at home with Windows Explorer will have no trouble downloading files to the player, as it merely presents itself as a "Removable Drive" taking up the next spare drive letter on your PC.
