Advantages: Price and easy to use

Disadvantages: No rewind

Being a novice when it comes to MP3s, I was quite dubious about shelling out cash to buy an MP3 player.

When I bought it I had just discovered Napster and I had such a slow net connection, that it was taking me 2 hours to download a single song but with a program such as Music Match jukebox, you can convert your own CDs to MP3s.

However the price was one of the things which really attracted me to it and I am very pleased with my purchase. It's light, the sound quality is great and it really impressed my friends!

The software that came with it couldn't be any simpler. So if you want a basic, run of the mill portable MP3 player, this has to be it.

On the down side, it doesn't have a rewind feature, so you have to start the song again, if you want to repeat a specific part. Also, I've just upgraded to windows 2000 and can't seem to download songs to my player.

Overall, its definitely worth it.

Thanks to sidneygee for asking me about how I managed to solve the software problems.... The answer is that I haven't! I tried to install the missing software driver but it didn't make a difference. Possibly I will need to download the new version of MusicMatch Jukebox, which I will do when I have access again to my home computer. I'll keep you posted and would appreciate any help/advice from others who have experienced similar problems with Windows 2000!
