I was completely dissapointed with this CD Walkman because it cannot play CD-R disks. I have a much older Panasonic that never claimed to play CD-Rs and it does a much better job. Naturally, I called Best Buy and the Sony "help line" and neither was any help at all. If you are looking for a CD player that can play your CD-Rs, go to another brand.Also, I learned early on that the remote has so many functions tht it does not operate reliably. Try to turn off the CD player and you may turn on the radio, and burn out your batteries as a result. I lost several sets of batteries before I learned to check that the thing was off before putting it away.As I am reading on several other reviews of Sony products, they have become arrogant and remote and do not give a damn about consumers. This product is inferior; it does not perform as advertised. Choose a different brand if you want good performance. This one is a not worth the money
