GOOD ENOUGH TO BE THE BEST

(4 out of 5) by aeronflux on Feb 26, 2001 (INDIA)
At 650MB or more, an inexpensive CD can hold a lot of MP3 music. Unfortunately,till date most of the portable MP3 CD players haven't performed well. If you've got a CD burner and don't mind the size of the Sonicblue Rio Volt, then this might just be the MP3 CD player you've been waiting for. It is available for ...

Thanks Boston guy

(3 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Apr 18, 2001
Thanks, Boston guy... I liked your in-depth review better :) Your review was good. It's making me think twice about getting a Rio Volt, due to the skipness factor. This is what makes MP3-memory players so advantageous albeit the awful prices we have to pay for the unit, and the extra RAM. Hmm, maybe I'll wait for the TDK Mojo.

Billy Bob's Review

(4 out of 5) by Billy Bob on Jun 18, 2001 (Montgomery, Alabama, USA)
I got me this player for my boy's birthday and he says he can play some pee three's on it that he got of the internet. I say how can you get pee three's on the internet, and he tell me there's this napsta program that run on my windows computer so I try it and he was right. I got me some good ol country music about some hilly billies. Then he put these songs on the cd for me through some computer burning device he got which he says uses some laser to burn the cd. I think it is pretty decent since i can now listen to my songs in my truck. I give it four stars.

Disappointing

(1 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Jun 11, 2002
The RioVolt plays wmas -- but the manual included is lacking and weak in terms of providing reaonable direction on how to create, save, and put wmas and playlists on a cd. Attempts to follow-up with customer support with SonicBlue have also been lackluster.

If you are looking a simple cd player, then the RioVolt would fit the bill. If you are looking for something that would play wmas and playlists on the cd, then look elsewehere. It is simply a disappointment.
