for the price, this is a great little machine. , but only has space for 3 limited playlists, but there's space on them. one feature that anoyes me, is that everytime it's being started it does in safe sound mode, wich is kind of low volume & no bass, you have to go to settings & select sound settings then select full sound & then select on, wich is a whole annoying process, but then it sounds really good. I have 4 units & previously I had 2 Ibiza haier 30gb's full of features , but had difficulty playing tracks longer than 15min. in this ones I have full 75 min. albums without a single cut & it plays them perfectly, also it doesn't make pauses in btw tracks & I use them for opera & classical music & it plays in a continuous stream, im really happy with it

Hi there,i'd like to buy a new 8GB mp3, but, i'm confused between the new ipod nano and zune. people say that the 3rd gen nano has a great battery life now, but, i'm discouraged from transferring my music files to itunes and changing the format (i've been using windows media. so, they're mostly in .wma)Is it true that Zune's software is crippled?being an experienced useer, would you recommend zune or nano? =)thanks a bunch!!

60mb??? why would you want something you can fit less than an hours worth of music on? ooooooh a typo...right.just remember this is their flagship model, bigger ones will come out...just dont spend your money yet if you dont want something that can only hold a weeks worth of audio...

I AM SHOCKED! No one has mentioned WMA format.The player's limit is 320kpbs with any format, and 64kbps on WMA is around the same quality as 320k on MP3, especially using earphones. I have converted 320k mp3 files into 64k wma files without noticing a difference. It's a shame if you put MP3s into this player.

I gotta say that I know quite a bit about mp3 players and I have no idea what those extensions mean. The player is the YP_P2. Anything else is just manufacturers jargon. JA_ means 4GB whereas JC_ means 8GB. The letter after that is the color. Unlike the Sony Walkman series, Samsung doesn't have like five players that differ by one or two features. If you see a P2 and the price is right, just go for it. I would be surprised if XEU meant something different. Also did you have any questions on which one you should buy? :)

I have no idea about the mp3 player. It's a piece of junk, don't get it. It fell apart the first day.

I use my mp3 exclusively for audiobooks. I'm a real junkie and listen nonstop all day when I'm not at work. The first one I bought was a Zen V. It had issues, but improved when Creative came out with new firmware. After using it for a year, the battery would no longer hold a charge. There was no way to replace the battery. So I decided to look for a player with a user-replaceable battery and bought a Zen Micro. It worked fine for a few weeks, then it broke and Creative said they could not repair it. I decided the battery was more of an issue than the bookmarking, so I bought a Sansa e250 v2. I've had it for about a month and it's great. Better than either of the Creative players. But it doesn't have bookmarking. Rockbox wizards are working on a new version that will work with the Sansa e250v2, so I'm hoping that will give it bookmarking capability. The resume playing works really well with the Sansa (unlike with the 2 creative players). Since I only listen to one book at a time and don't listen to music, the only time bookmarking is really an issue is when I transfer or delete books when the player is connected to my PC. (I have a Gomadic wall charger to recharge the battery at night.) I'm really not sure about the full time stamping. My library changed from netLibrary to Overdrive. Overdrive breaks audiobooks into multiple files instead of having one really large file like NetLibrary, so that hasn't been an issue. In 2006 a survey showed that 25% of the adult US population listens to audiobooks. It's really stupid that mp3 manufacturers continue to ignore our needs when the technology and software already exists to provide every player with full time stamping and bookmarking. If just one of them would come out with a reliable player with a user-replaceable battery and those features, they would probably rival iPOD overnight. If Sansa would respond with a firmware update to provide those features, the e200 series could be that player. Instead, they foolishly continue to ignore the pleas of audiobook listeners.

Hi Tom,This MP3 player also features a microSDHC card slot, so you can expand its memory by up to 32GB with a SanDisk microSD or microSDHC card**Card(s) sold separately.This is from here: http://www.sandisk.com/products/music-video-players/clip-zip/

The battery should be good (hold a charge) for at least 2 years or longer, by that time you'll probably want a new MP3 player anyway. But from what I've seen with other MP3 players, there will probably be 3rd party battery replacement made for this in the near future (probably will find it on e b a y.)

Hi Larry - I am also looking for mp3 player for audiobooks from NetLibrary - Do you know if Sansa has bookmarking feature? How did you narrow your choices to Sansa? Thanks for your help. Willow

It all depends on the features you are looking for. I just needed a mp3 player to play music in my car and when I'm traveling. So I was not interested in a 'smart' mp3 player, which are more expensive. The Ipod Nano is more expensive than the Sony walkman, but the Sony walkman had the basic features I was looking for.

I am very happy with my 2GB Sansa. Just updated the firmware (very smooth application downloaded from Sandisk site). Sleek design, not as cool as Nano, but very close. Ubercool video which Nano doesn't have, which works surprisingly well. Bigger screen than Nano too. Micro SD slot a great plus. And it also works like a storage device, so you can take files with it, something Nano doesn't do. Go for the $129 (at time of writing) 4GB model.

I am in the same boat as you. I've been considering getting the iPod Touch or the Samsung Galaxy Player 4.2. I've had an older second generation iPod Nano for 5 years and it's still in very good condition, but since it is 2gb, I have ran out of room for my songs. Not sure whether to upgrade to the iPod Touch or the Samsung Galaxy Player.

In my opinion it is a very good buy from Amazon. I got one for $29 and three for $32. Both of those are good buys. They are very small and great for audible books. I don't know about music on them because I don't use mine for that. With a 16 gig card they hold over 400 hours of books in the 4 format.

I just bought a Sansa clip plus & have already tried two different types of earbuds. I am looking for something thats comfotrable & protable. So these headphones will work & enhance the sound I'm looking for on my mp3? Thank you for your time.

A really good MP3 player that I have come across is the SanDisk Sansa e280 8 GB MP3 player. It is a little more expensive than most (I think new it's about $149.99, may be cheaper), however it lasted me about 7 years. It probably would have lasted me longer, except a friend borrowed it and left it in the rain. It is a pretty high quality player. Now on to the itunes issue. Itunes has basically made it so that you can't download music from them onto something that isn't apple, except a desktop computer. I received an itunes gift card once and did not own anything by apple. I downloaded itunes onto my computer easily and then bought a few songs. I did a lot of research and tried and tried to sinc the music onto my MP3 player, but nothing was working. Finally, I tried to download my songs onto a disc, which worked. Then I proceeded to upload that disc onto a different media player (Windows Media Player) on my computer that allowed me to download songs onto my MP3 player. All in all it was a very frustrating and difficult process. If you want to avoid the frustration of having to deal with itunes, I would just get an apple ipod, ipod touch, or something that apple allows itunes to download to. If you really want an MP3 player I would recommend the one I highlighted above.
