"I would have given it a 10 if it wasn't for the stupid software"
Pros: Excellent battery life and sound
Cons: Software, Navigation Menu, Lithium Ion Batteries, Atrac Format
Summary: I use this MP3 when I'm on the bus and it gives me an amazing battery life (I listen to music for around 4 hours a day). The battery usually lasts between 2 or 3 weeks and that is because I only use it when going to school so 4 times a week. However, the software is getting on my nerves because I have to change song titles whenever uploading new songs and the navgation is somewhat weird compared to other MP3 Players. I have been using this MP3 Player for the last 6 months so the navigation is no longer problematic but simply weird. I also hate lithium ion batteries because they take so long to recharge. Finally, I would recommend people to avoid Sony MP3 players in general because they force you to convert your existing formats to Atrac (Sony's own format) which takes forever.
