before asking for the zen xtra specifically for christmas i researched many different mp3 players but finally decided on this one , and now that i have it i could n 't be happier and i 'm convinced it 's the best one out there . | 1 | positive |
many people have written about the software being its one downfall , personally i have n 't had a single problem with the software , i 'm running windows me . | 1 | positive |
the cd ripping to mp3 is so easy , and you can even rip the cd directly to the mp3 player , so it wo n 't take up space on your pc hard drive . | 1 | positive |
the controls on the player are very simple , no need for a manual . | 1 | positive |
the player is fast and sounds great , it also has many options like slowing or speeding up the music , or making it sound like you 're hearing the music in a huge auditorium . | 1 | positive |
the battery lasts very long when playing music , but writing files to the player drains the battery fast , so you need to have it plugged into an outlet when sending files . | 1 | positive |
playlists can be made on the fly , without aid of a computer , and you can use play modes like shuffle and repeat for your ' now playing ' selections or playlists . | 1 | positive |

also , you can store data on it , which is a plus . for all you people who want to buy an ipod just to say you have an ipod , do n 't bother , this is a much better buy . | 1 | positive |
first i 'll start off by saying that this players hardware is pretty good . . . | 1 | positive |

a lot of people complain about the creative software , but i actually find creative mediasource organizer to have some strengths over itunes . | 1 | positive |
first , the zen lets you sync to more than one computer . | 1 | positive |
the zen is an outstanding way to shuttle music between sources , you can 't do this on the ipod ( except for a cumbersome work-around using the ipod as a hard drive instead of a player ) . | 1 | positive |
second , the `` automatic `` sync on creative lets you review the songs before it begins its transfer . | 1 | positive |
the zen serves as a back-up device as well as a player . | 1 | positive |
third , creative software allows you to keep two windows open to look at both the content on the player and the computer . | 1 | positive |
for those of us that like to tinker , i think creative offers some advantages . | 1 | positive |
it also lets you remove songs from the play order . | 1 | positive |
if you bring up an album , but absolutely hate some of the tracks , the zen will allow you to delete that from the playing order . | 1 | positive |

this did n 't bother me too much because it 's still a decent size . | 1 | positive |
extremely convenient . | 1 | positive |

now he res the stuff you should know starting with the good things : the screen is really big and the blue light in the back is perfect , fast as hell in music transfer , controls are easy to use after mastering the scroll button , great sound and ive heard many mp3 players , a ton of different equalizer type deals on here . | 1 | positive |

* price and capacity | 1 | positive |

despite its being slightly larger than the ipod , i must say i was surprised to see how small it was when i unwrapped the box ! . | 1 | positive |
i am ripping my cd collection into 160 kbps wma files ; . this gives an average of around 60-65 mb per cd , good for about 900 cds in the ~ 57 , 000 mb of free memory available to me . | 1 | positive |
file transfers are fast , nearly a song per second via usb 2 . 0 . | 1 | positive |
to my ears , a 160 kbps wma file sounds just as good as the source cd , and the zen xtra sounds just as good as a portable cd player . | 1 | positive |
i have been ripping songs into it for the past few weeks , and the ease of use is wonderful . | 1 | positive |
the memory will hold an amazing amount of songs , my entire collection of cd 's will all fit on this great little tiny piece of digital fun . | 1 | positive |
plusses are the easy to remove battery and the terrific sound produced by the nomad . | 1 | positive |
ripping the songs , even with my 1 . 1 usb connection is still very quick , and the quality is very good . | 1 | positive |
considering the price and specs , this might be the best buy out there for a large memory mp3 player . | 1 | positive |
it 's really a shame , because otherwise , creative mp3 players are very good , and have the best sound quality of any players on the market . | 1 | positive |
after some consideration i chose the 40gb nomad zen xtra from creative , and i have not been disappointed . | 1 | positive |
first , the battery is replacable by the user , because creative intended it to be - unlike apple with the ipod . | 1 | positive |
it was easy enough to remove the front plate , and there was only one way the battery could be inserted . | 1 | positive |
the new organizer software that ships with the nomad zen xtra could n 't be easier to use . | 1 | positive |

and with usb 2 . 0 , transferring music to your player is incredibly easy . | 1 | positive |
the sound is great , and the volume is more than satisfactory for commutes and shutting out external noise . | 1 | positive |
they could be more comfortable , but no complaints in the sound department . | 1 | positive |
i 've played around with the equalizer settings and am satisfied at the range of choices i have there too . | 1 | positive |
1 . i achieved my basic objective ; . my entire cd collection is on a portable device with lots of room to store more . | 1 | positive |
the zen has minimal stoppage between tracks ; . when listening to music that continues from one track to the next the gap is just a hesitation - a slightly audible click ; . if i am not listening for the progress from one track to the next i do n 't even notice the click . | 1 | positive |
given that i already have the zen the only reason i am happy with it is because of the notmad software . | 1 | positive |
now that i own it , however , i can 't imagine being without it ! . | 1 | positive |
i have stored around 60 cd 's ( at 160kbps ) on this and have barely touched the available memory . | 1 | positive |
the sound quality is fantastic ( cd quality ) and it is really great to carry this around instead of stacks of cd 's or tapes ! . | 1 | positive |
it is exceedingly simple to navigate around in this device . | 1 | positive |
one other plus is that napster now supports this device via their software . | 1 | positive |
+ i had no problem using musicmatch software already on my computer to load songs and albums onto this unit | 1 | positive |
+ / - sound quality was good but it was going to take some tweaking with settings to try to make it great . | 1 | positive |

i love this player and am extremely happy with my decision . | 1 | positive |
the price / performance looked just right . | 1 | positive |
i did buy the notmad software a week ago and found that a vast improvement . | 1 | positive |
1 ) great sound ( > 98db signal-to-noise ratio beats ipod 's `` unspecified `` ratio ) and good power output allow the zen xtra to drive large head-phones as well as external speakers . | 1 | positive |
with my sennheiser 497 headphones , the volume is loud enough at 12 ( max is 20 ) . | 1 | positive |
2 ) the player user interface ( ui ) is intuitive to use , and allows easy navigation of a large or small collection . | 1 | positive |
3 ) the nomad explorer ( winxp style interface ) works well to transfer files back and forth to use the nomad as an external although the tech support web-site states that the primary intended purpose of the player is as a player . | 1 | positive |
the nomad explorer provide most of the functionality offered by 3rd party programs like notmad . | 1 | positive |
4 ) usb 2 . 0 means fast data transfers ( 1 song / sec ! . ) . | 1 | positive |

6 ) excellent battery life - 14 hours beats ipod 's . | 1 | positive |
7 ) chic look and good build - the player comes in a compact form with a metal face plate . | 1 | positive |
i use it primarily in the provided protective case although i have dropped it about 3 feet from my desk ( by accident ) as well as have played it outdoors in - 30 fahrenheit weather ( by design ) and it has continued to work fine . | 1 | positive |
b . fast mediasource cd ripping - takes about 40 seconds for a cd on my pentium 4 pc ( 2 . 4 hz with 1gb ram ) with 52x drive . | 1 | positive |
c . i do love audio sync which allows a one-click synchronization between the player and the music collection on the computer . | 1 | positive |
9 ) wake-up feature that allows you to set up the player to wake up and play selected music at a specified time . | 1 | positive |
7 ) some people have problems with the flip switch on the bottom that releases the player cover - has not been an issue for me and is immaterial if you use the case as the case covers the switch . | 1 | positive |
can 't beat carrying 500-cd collection with me wherever i go . | 1 | positive |
