This is hands-down the worst Mp3 player I've ever owned. While in the store (Target) I found it on clearance and really liked the idea of expandable memory. I bought mine in early October and at first it seemed alright at best. I still haven't figured out where the shuffle option is (there isn't one) and there isn't an option for continuous play. Which means if you're like me, and you use it while riding a motorcycle, once your playlist ends, it won't automatically start over again so you ride in silence until you find somewhere to pull over and hit "play" again. While the hum of the bike is soothing in and of itself, it is a major inconvenience just to have your tunes die unexpectedly. I found that in order to "shuffle" my tracks, I had to edit the titles and number them - again, a major inconvenience.
But wait there's more: Suddenly the Mp3 player display stopped working. The 'power' switch refused to turn the player off and I was stuck waiting with the player perpetually 'on' which is draining to the battery, of course. I couldn't do anything with it, and now it is officially useless. The battery is fully charged and at best when you turn it on the display flickers before losing life again altogether.
I can't complain about the cover or the casing. I usually keep mine in my pocket so it didn't get too scratched and I even thought it was kinda cool looking. The sound quality definitely sucks though. Get more detail about Memorex MMP9008 8GB USB 2.0 MP4/MP3/ FM/Voice w/2.4" LCD (Black).
