Summary: Unremittingly poor design.
Review: I bought one of these at ...for my wife's birthday. I am revulsing in shame at the poor design of the user interface of this unit.Numero uno. The player doesn't save your place when you turn it off. OK. A lot of them don't, but I'm not anywhere close to finished. Numero dos. You can't browse through directories (albums) on an MP3 disk, only songs (all 200 of them, right?). To locate a particular album, you had better already know the names of all the folders on the disk. You have to do an alphabetical search to get to it. One workaround I can think of is to prefix numbers to the folders prior to burning the MP3 disk. This requires more computer skill than should be required for a device that costs sixty bucks. Numero tres. OK, let's assume you know the names of all the albums on your MP3 disk, or that you implemented the workaround I just described. You're playing the disk and you want to switch to a different album. You do the search. You get...NOTHING! Why? Because you have to back all the way out of the directory structure to get to the album information. This involves STOPPING the player altogether, and whatever else you were doing (like driving), THEN do the search. In short, one would expect an MP3 player that includes a car kit to be reasonably user-friendly enough to be used while driving a car. Memory would be nice. A quantity equivalent to an ...alarm clock would suffice. That way, you could leave the thing in your car and NEVER have to touch it again. I would have EASILY traded the four-line scrolling display of the names of the songs, the artists, the running time, and on and on - nice frosting, but not enough cake - for about ten minutes' worth of thought about how these items are used. The MP3 format has soooooooo much potential, and too many of these gadgets fail to come anywhere close to meeting this potential. The engineers (or trained monkeys) who designed this thing need to be sent back to school - on the short bus.

Summary: Good Value for $$$
Review: I like the Value for the $$$. The only gripe I have is that the random function is not truely random, it repeats the random order. Other than that I am quite happy, I can put 150 - 200 songs and listen to it for 8 - 10 hrs (no need to carry my CD wallet).

Summary: great buy for the package
Review: for the money this is the best cd/mp3 palyer you can get. i've had no problems and its lcd screen is very good and plain. i read other reviews that said they had problems with the quality after recording the mp3 format, not mine. one draw back is you run thru batteries like mad, oh well.

Summary: An inexpensive lot of music to travel by car
Review: My family is very happy with the new travelling portable discotheque. CD and mp3 player sound are very good. We assign 4 stars because the car power connector disconects continously during car skipping.

Summary: Died after only 5 months
Review: It was a pretty good player. A little slow on the loading, and skips from time to time. But the whole thing completely STOPPED WORKING AFTER ONLY 5 MONTHS. It won't start up at all. It wasn't dropped, jarred, jostled, submerged, etc. I called the customer service line who said, sorry your 90-day warranty is up. So I'm out [$$$]. Please spend your money on a better name brand (even though I thought I could trust memorex). I replaced it with a Koss, which I'll probably bring back. Very disappointing!!!

Summary: Keep Looking...
Review: I know the price looks attractive, but keep looking. The Memorex MP3 Player worked for about 10 minutes, then gave up. It would not recognize any disks (Audio CD's, CR-R's or MP3 CD). Also, I noticed that during the brief time that it did work, the display was diffcult to read, and the loading time inbetween songs was SLOW. It's on it's way back to Amazon now. Spend a little more money and get something that will not break down as soon as you open the box.

Summary: Worst of the worst
Review: Honestly, this is the worst of the worst. It's 45sec. anti-skip [stinks] the most. It doesn't work at all ... and that's walking a normal pace! If you want to give your money away ... still don't choose this one to do it on!

Summary: Don't get [pulled] in by the sale price -- it's no good!
Review: I bought mine so I could listen to music while walking. Bad move -- one false move and the thing skips, pops, moves to the next song then back again -- pauses for 45 seconds while it figures out what it should do next. Pretty much everything except play music. It is rare to get through a whole song without having to check its pulse. I even bought an expensive pack to put it i while I walk thinking that it needed to be more stable. It skips in the car while hooked up to the car adaptor. It skips while I'm sitting dead still. I thought my CD's were ALL dirty, but in fact it skips with BRAND NEW CD's. I would not recommend this at all. The only pro: Excellent headphones -- and when it *is* actually playing music, the sound quality is good. By a Sony -- they work. Wish I had.
