SONY MZ-E300 MiniDisc Walkman(R) Player (Blue)

Rating:
Summary: A good player if you have prerecorded MDs
Review: Pros: light; inexpensive; well-placed buttons are protected from scrapes by the protruding battery area; has a socket for headphone-cord remote (if you have one from another sony cd/md player).

Cons: doesn't play MDs recorded in LP2 or LP4 format; battery life (33hrs) isn't as long as pricier players; opening mechanism is somewhat flimsy plastic.

Overall I like this player, particularly for its great price and clean appearance. The battery life is long enough to hear 28 discs, so it shouldn't be a problem! I bought it for my mom to take on a trip and she had no problems with it.
