4.0 out of 5 stars Satisfied Customer, July 16, 2009

This review is from: Coby 4 GB Video MP3 Player with FM Radio (Red) (Electronics)

This player was exactly what I was looking for - something relatively inexpensive on which I could upload audio books for on-the-go listening. I do not have a lot of sit time but enjoy books. This fit the bill. The greatest pro to me is the fact that each track not only has a timer that counts up the time, but this player counts down as well simultaneously. That way if I want to re-listen to a track, I know how far I've got to go back. Most players just have a counter that counts up the time without letting you know how much time is left on a given track. The biggest con - I bought a candy apple red player. Although it is nice and pretty, the quality of the finish is poor. It scratches easily. Even just a bit of pressure from winding the cord around the player has nicked the finish. Considering the pro, however, it's something I can live with.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT an mp4 player, December 30, 2009

This review is from: Coby 4 GB Video MP3 Player with FM Radio (Red) (Electronics)

I LOVE this little player, BUT . . . 1) it is NOT an mp4 player. it does play mp3. It is NOT useful as a video player unless you can get your files in .mtv format 2) battery life & charging can be a bit odd - it says charge overnight connected to a computer that is on & booted, 3) had to return one of these because the power switch failed, just would not turn on or off 4) price shot up $20 in just one month, I paid $34. 5) iTunes does not see the player, so you have to add files to it just like a thumbdrive, which is fine, but to get the Artist/Album info right, you have to go through a little dance. . . that is, after you have dragged your files to the player (only a couple at a time, or it chokes), then launch iTunes and drag the songs into a new playlist, where you edit the song info. Then dismount the player and shut it off so it can update its library. After you turn it back on, the song/album/artist info will match whatever you had put into iTunes. If you do not edit the info, it will display many as "Unknown Artist" 6) it is very picky about the kind of files, for example, you have to make sure that the pictures you drag into the Pictures Folder are .JPG and never .JPEG. because .JPEG do not play and give a "file error", same as if you drag over .aiff and forget to convert to .mp3. 7) This model MP610 is much much better than the MP600. Maybe read the manual before you buy [...]

4.0 out of 5 stars gets the job done!!, August 10, 2009

Well at first, this whole thing was a bit frustrating because it took a couple weeks to receive but when I am glad that I did. The red is very nice and the sound quality is very good. The built in program is relatively simple and makes music transfer easy. On the negative note I found making playlists difficult. The screen scratches a bit easily. Overall though, its fun and works great!! THANKS!! :)
