The Bottom Line: I think this is a good investment. I haven't had ANY problems with it so far and I'm rough on my stuff. I really recommend this CD player.

When I bought this CD Player 4 or 5 months it was priced at $90 and it was worth it. This is the only CD player I have been able to jog or move around a lot and still not have it skip. (This is was while using an MP3 CD.) The battery life is awesome. You can actually SEE the CD stop spinning to save battery life when you use an MP3 or ATRAC3 Plus CD. Not only can you play MP3 and ATRAC3 CD's, which let you put hundreds of songs on 1 CD, you can also burn your music onto CD-RW's. This is a really nice feature because my music tastes change and there is no need to use a new CD, I just erase my old one and re-record the songs I want. Also, the CD player reads the CD text on the cd so it will display the name and author of the song. (YOU have to type the information when the song is on your computer, just to clarify.) The only negative thing I can think of is the fact that the headphones are lacking in the quality department (but when was the last time you received GOOD headphones with a similar product?). I get excellent sound quality out of a pair of sound dampening headphones I picked up at Radio Shack. If your looking for a good CD Player that plays MP3's AND CD-RW's you can't beat the price on this one. Just pick up a pair of better headphones and your set.
