  1. from Greywolf from San Francisco, Ca., www.circuitcity.com
    5.0 Stars sound quality: great, love the large screen (for an mp3), and my computer recognized it straight off (but then, i own a sony vaio computer).
  2. from RB from Johns, www.circuitcity.com
    5.0 Stars if my creative zen player ever dies i'll be buying a sony to replace it!
  3. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars this is the third sony mp3 i've tried, and it's the best so far.
  4. from www.amazon.com
    4.0 Stars this mp3 is very user friendly but when it comes to features it seems sony was a little lazy...
  5. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars also, unlike past sony mp3 players that require you to use sonicstage, you don't have to use it for this.

MP3 Players for Audiobook


Avid audiobook listeners demand a lot from their mp3 players. Audiobooks are large files, so you'll need an mp3 player with as much space as you can possibly afford. A minimum storage of 10GB is usually a good rule of thumb. This is one case where more is always better.

You should also look for an MP3 player that uses changeable batteries as well as a built-in battery. You might find yourself in the middle of a riveting chapter when your built-in battery dies. If you don't have changeable batteries, you'll have to recharge before you can continue your book. The suspense might kill you.

Make sure the mp3 player you purchase is compatible with the audiobook service you want to use -- if you want to download audiobooks from iTunes, for example, you'll need an iPod. Choose wisely, and you'll be rewarded with the ability to curl up with a good audiobook for hours at a time.
