Great Product for Nearly Any Audiophile

I searched and searched for a product to replace my iPod. I was so fed up with feeling like I forced to get Apple products, because they were the only digital music players (that I had known of, at the time) that were of any decent quality, but I can't...

Slim, durable, easy to use, great features

Would like to see a model with more space. Needs more accessories

Hoped to replace by iPod, bad decision

I rarely give items low ratings, especially to ones that come so close to having everything I want. First, the good: The sound quality is great - better than my iPod. I also love the Walkman's size, shape and audio options. But it has some very...

Good sound, physical buttons instead of virtual controls

Won't play M4Ps from iTunes, frustrating device navigation, MediaGo software deletes all songs every time I synch

Surprised by its quality

Really good sounding player and very small with excellent ear buds. Get it iTunes compatible and Apple compatible. It will improve its appeal and ease of use. B.Gates' software is still junk.

thin, great sound, easy operation

Software is poor; Not iTunes compatible; hard to load tunes except by drag and drop

Downgrade From Last Year's Model

The new E475 is very similar to last year's E465. Except that Sony slashed battery life to make it slightly thinner and slightly lighter.

Thinner, Lighter

Worsened Battery Life

Great sounding little player

I was a Cowon user for years until my C2 had to be returned at my expense and then the replacement was also defective. Still fighting with Cowon to get 2nd unit replaced. I loved Cowon for the sound quality but I find my new Sony sounds just as good...

Sound quality, user interface, No touch screen

Easy to turn on by mistake
