| grick6968's Full Review: Samsung Yepp YP-E64 (64 MB) MP3 Player |
A view small things you should know before considering purchasing this product:
1.) YOU CANNOT TURN IT OFF. If you want to turn it off you have to take out the 1 AAA battery which you will be doing a lot anyways since the battery burns out after about 1.5 hours of play. (Including SONY, Duracell and Energizer's best batteries.)
2.) The software that is ships with only lets you rip (convert to MP3) a limited number of songs and THEN YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR AN "UPGRADE" to convert any more of your own CDs. But don't worry about that if you have a MAC because the Mac software doesn't let you convert any of your CDs at all.
3.) DID I MENTION HOW IT GOES THROUGH BATTERIES? This thing could have 6 GB of memory and it wouldn't matter because you are only going to get about 1.5 hours at a time (that's if you take the battery out when you are not using it)
...Not only was I told that this thing lasted for hours (note more than 1) but they neglected to mention the "upgrade" you needed to use their (unusable) software or the fact that you will burn out your batteries because YOU CAN"T TURN IT OFF.
I bought this expecting not a lot of memory but consistent performance and basic functionality. Instead I will end up spending more in batteries than I probably would have with a better player.
