BEST MP3 PLAYER THAT I'VE EVER USED!!!!!!:
I love this mp3 player. The expandable memory is very helpful too!! I can not think of any complaints!!!!!! Extremly satisfied!!!!

To be honest, I've been blowing this player off for quite some time now because it's, like... Short, squat and kind of resembles an iPod. Call me prejudiced, but I just really don't like iPods. It just... more info
