slagish's Full Review: RCA Lyra RD1090 (256 MB) MP3 Player
This is a pretty nice little MP3 player.

I needed three things:

* upgradeable memory
* ability to store files other than music files
* no silly software necessary to just transfer an MP3

The Lyra does all this.

The sound quality is quite good, overall. I wish earbud earphones were supplied rather than the silly clip-it-right-to-your-ear ones provided, as good-sounding as they are. The sound volume is fairly loud, not ear-splitting but loud enough to be uncomfortable for some songs.

I don't like:

* no belt clip (RCA are you listening?)
* no album skip -- you have to push Next as many times as it takes to get you through an album to another, and it is slow doing this
* the headphones
