Pros: Affordable, user friendly, nice shape/attractive Cons: Must use realjukebox, casing is a little flimsy
I decided to buy the RCA Lyra for a few reasons. It looked the most affordable, for only about $199, and it was the most common one in stores, so it had high availability. I was very pleased when I went to Circuit City and saw it on sale for only $169....

Pros: upgradeable, reliable, easy to use Cons: no radio, small compact flash card
This player is although large, very useful. It Does not have a radio or a permanent storage compartment. It is able to be upgraded for the future. A 32MB card comes with the player but you are able to buy up to a 320MB storage for it. This is not...

Pros: wow, a new digital audio format! Cons: won't play low sample rate streams
I've already rated this device, but I wanted to chirp up again and mention that the Lyra now plays Microsoft WMA files! This advancement brings the Lyra out of the realm of ordinary MP3 player (of course, it played Real G2 files, already) and make it a...

Pros: User-adjustable equalizer. Won't skip when running. Sound is good. Rewrites music quickly and easily. Expandable. Cons: 48 minutes of music? Add'l Flash Cards Too Expensive. The screen could be smaller. Have to use Real Jukebox.
EVER SINCE I FINALLY got Napster working on my new laptop, I've spent far too much time downloading mp3s. Now, as cool as downloading music on one's computer is, there's the minor problem of: how do I listen to this while I am, for example, riding on the...

Pros: Decent interface, car accessories were a nice touch Cons: Parallel connection and file conversion time made transfer too slow - Not worth the money
From the time I purchased this player until the time I returned it, the performance was lackluster and it’s design is mediocre at best.
I purchased the Lyra because my digital camera uses CompactFlash(CF) Memory cards, and thought it would...

Pros: Slick, handsome, and completely unskippable. Cons: Battery drain, no radio, no text wrap.
I decided to buy an MP3 player the same day I discovered a friendly little program called Napster. And first of all, let me put in a plug for Ebay here, because I bought the Lyra on Ebay brand new for over $100 less than retail. I now go there first for...

Pros: A Great New Way to Listen To Music Cons: Pretty Expensive
This RCA Lyra Mp3 player is one of the best investments that you could make. This is what everyone a couple of years from now will be listening too. A downside to this is that is pretty expensive right now, but the price for it will be going down in the...

Pros: Has 64 mb of memory Cons: none
The LYRa it's simply the best all-over package at the moment. It's capable of playing MP3 files up to 120kb and (!) G2 (realplayer) files up to 96kb. Don't matter about the MPX or copy protection stuff it really doesn't matter - copying of 60mb to memory...

Pros: It has great labling abilities Cons: The memery packs are expensive
The RCA Lyra has many quilities that the other MP3 players do not have. One of the best qualities is that you can lable songs. This quality is what made the mini disc players beter. Now I think i will sell my mini disc player and get the RCA Lyra. The...

Pros: Large LCD Cons: Size, Flimsyness, No Base Memory
The RCA/Thompson Lyra isn't the best choice for your money. It's bigger than most MP3 Players, from the RIO500 (my personal favoriate) to the IJAM (which you should REALLY stay away from). It also feels a lot weaker. Just physical touch, picking it...

Pros: The light , the equalizers, long battery life (no moving parts) Cons: no time display, but that's what a watch is for
-I bought this mp3 player because it looked cool and because they were one of the first mp3 players and the first is always the best... copies are cheap
-I have had it for a while now and it has given me absolutely no problems
-I...

Pros: Powerful clear sound, skip free, a very fun tool to use. Impressive indeed. Cons: It comes in a box.
RCAs' Lyra portable MP3 player whips out more power than you would expect from such a compact and lightweight system. The sound it produces is phenomenally crisp, like biting into a cool apple it replenishes your desire to experience......music. If...

This is the greatest mp3 portable player due to...

Pros: Small; good sound; great battery life Cons: Mine broke; downloading music to the player is a real pain
I had a bad experience with this product. Ninety-three days after I bought it, the Fast-Forward/Next Track button stuck down. I have no idea why -- it wasn't dropped or anything, and I don't ever recall pressing this button.
Sadly, the...
