Can the auto shut-off feature be turned off, thus allowing me to listen to the radio for as long as I wish?

Yes. When you turn it ON you hold the POWER button in UNTIL the 90 minutes shuts off. Now the Radio will stay on until the batteries die.

No, I don't believe so. However it is simply a matter of pushing the "on" button again for another 90 minutes

Hi, I don't know that it's designed to auto-turn-off, however, mine does that as well. Very annoying indeed!

You can turn off the music, but it keeps talking/playing for about 10 seconds (annoying!)

Yes, you can turn this Sony mp3 player completely off buy holding down the option button. After the screen displays "OFF", slide the "Hold" button up. This will keep the player from coming on when buttons are accidently pressed. It's a great mp3 player with a good long battery life. I have never had a problem out of it. It's totally worth the price. Just remember that if you want to make a playlist do it using the "Bookmark" feature.

No, you need to follow the instructions to turn off auto off. It's described in the instruction booklet.

Yes, if you mean can you set an amount of time for the unit to play until it shuts off on its own.

You can. It turns off when you plug it in but you can turn it back on immediately. The only thing I don't like about this radio is how easily the knob pops off. I recommend gluing it on as soon as you open the box.

I never turned it off, but found that I had to turn it on almost every time I got in the car. I used it to stream Pandora and liked the sound and the ability to skip tracks using the buttons. However, having to hold the button down for 5 seconds to turn it on got to be annoying very quickly. I searched the Internet to see if there was a modification or setting so that it would turn on automatically when power is applied, but could not find a solution so I've stopped using it in the car.

Don't think it can be turned off--but it's a display like on a digital watch; it won't drain the battery for a long time. One note on the batteries on this radio, however, you can re-charge rechargeable batteries in it, but it doesn't happen automatically you have to set it and it takes like 20 hours. I usually just leave mine 12 or so and it's fine, but I may be shortening the life of the battery to do so. Mostly, I am happy with this radio.

Yes you can mute it, but need to hit the power button on the unit to actually turn power off

Yes the unit can be turned off by pressing on the button on top of the device. Also runs on rechargeable batteries. Or you cAn just turn off the Bluetooth off your media.

Yes, but only when it is on. There is an on/off switch right next to the aux port. This is a great feature because the module can distort other stations while on. Having the ability to easily switch it off when not in use is great!

No way to turn it off that I know of. It is probably a good safety feature.

I first answered "I don't know" however I realized after my first use the batteries were dead. I didn't shut off the player. SO now I can say no there is no auto shut off.

Mine has never shut off! We listen to Internet Radio 24/7/365. Shut off occurs because of the web site or because of an automatic update from Microsoft. We don't listen to many albums! I agree with the need to make the adjustment to get whole house reception, plus in the driveway!

Yes and no i suppose. When you turn the volume knob all the way to the left it clicks to an off position. It also powers off after a certain amount of time of inactivity. Sorry for the late reply but I hope that helps.

I know you can use the sleep function from the iPod and it will shut off, not sure about the radio.
