1 out of 5 stars JUNK.......2007-03-30

Ive owned all of the Philips/Nike mp3 players...not because I need to have the latest and greatest but becuase they kept dying on me. The software was a pain to use (especially since im using itunes now which is VERY EASY).

The only reason I stuck with the player is because I bought the extended warranty from Best Buy (if you buy this player you NEED the warranty) and they would replace it with a newer model.

I made the switch to the ipod nano a year ago and havent looked back. Do yourself a favor and avoid this player like the plague. Phillips and Nike no longer have a partnership due to the poor performance of this player.

1 out of 5 stars New Software Renders Unit Useless.......2006-10-08

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. Phillips has changed the operating system so that it relies upon Musicmatch Jukebox for file maintenance. The problem is that the basic Jukebox program and plug in don't work. So, once you upgrade the firmware and software, you are left with a very expensive paperweight. I assume that all is corrected if you pay Musicmatch for an upgrade, but I am unwilling to take the chance for a couple reasons. First, the unit should work fine without forcing me to buy separate software (or they should disclose this fact so a purchaser can figure this into the total purchase price). Second, fool me once. What happens if I upgrade and the thing still does not work. All in all, Nike and Phillips should be very embarrassed. This device worked fine until they screwed around with the software so as to allow people to purchase and download songs.

1 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS! I never even used it before it "broke"!.......2006-09-19

As a runner, I thought this would be a good purchase. I even took my un-used Ipod back before opening the Ipod because I thought this item would be better -- I was WRONG! During my first run the product fell on the concrete and never turned back on again. Philips would not replace it because they said I "misused" it. Philips demonstrated extremely poor customer service and I found no help when I contacted the seller from Amazon. Don't waste your money on this or any other product from Philips!

5 out of 5 stars Love it!.......2005-12-10

I am quite happy with the purchase of this MP3 player and cannot understand people's problems with the software. To specifically address others' problems (that I can remember):

I am using Windows XP and have absolutely no problem loading songs onto my player, both MP3 and WMA. I also have no problem copying from CDs that I have previously burned as well as commercial CDs that I have bought.

I can drag and drop titles just fine from my files with the software. I have also had no problem assigning my own name to playlists that I create.

I was up and running and loading songs within minutes of installing the software.

It's a great piece of equipment for the price.

5 out of 5 stars Great MP3 player.......2005-11-27

I got this as a gift from my husband. I run on a daily basis and this player has yet to let me down.The battery life is excellent I cant even remember the last time i had to charge it! I love that i have an option to wear it around my arm or around my waist with the belt. I have no complaints if you read the directions and learn how to use the software to transfer the music its easy as pie!
