Summary: Don't waste your time on this item
Review: I got this mp3 player as a present and I told the person who gave it to me not to ever buy it for anyone else. First, the first software program crashed my computer. Then when I try the second software program, Musicmatch, it would not let me download music files that I bought from their own website. Musicmatch people say it is the mp3 player and Philips says it is the Musicmatch site. I have not tried downloading CDs, but what is the point of owning a mp3 player if you cannot download songs you bought off the internet? I would just use a portable CD player if I wanted to listen to CDs. Don't waste your time with this item.

Summary: DON'T BUY THIS.....
Review: If you are running windows XP at least. I loaded both forms of software onto my computer. The 'Nike' software crashed my computer everytime I turned it on. Once I managed to figure out how to uninstall that and got the computer running again, I decided to try the other program. Musicmatch. That program worked fine...until...you select the option to load files to portable. After that? You guessed it. Crashed everytime. So now I have a 200 dollar hockey puck.

Summary: HORRIBLE PRODUCT
Review: This is bar far the biggest waste of money I've ever purchased. The software is horrific. It didn't crash my computer at all, but it has some MAJOR flaws. First of all, you can't drag and drop music onto the player--you have to use their lame software. To make it worse, the software is useless! It bases everything off a database within the player. This database doesn't look at file names--it only looks at MP3 ID tags. So if you've ripped any CD's that are a few years old, or have music that you downloaded a few years ago, the software won't recognize it. So, according to this software, I have 443 songs named "No Title Found" on my computer. Useless. Utterly useless. This was also a gift. I will never buy from these morons again. They should stop hiring sixth-graders to write their software.
