Great player September 22, 2008 After many reviews of different players (nearly bought the Sony), I opted for the Zen for its core features + the SD drive and the radio. I've had it over a month now - also bought the leather case - and it's an excellent player, esp with some decent in-ear headphones which really bring out the player's detail and bass. No problems at all (touchwood!) - have used MS mediaplayer to download my music rather than the Zen s/w, which work well. Haven't been able to create playlists on the Zen (used mediaplayer instead) and there is a limited amount of peripherals v ipod, so overall have rated it a 4 stars (it's really a 4.5 but couldn't score that). But great value for the price. Recommended.

Be very careful when you use this product as failure is very easy and recovery very difficult. It's rather like an insurance policy, what really matters is what do they do when things go wrong. In the case of these ZEN products they are very difficult (impossible) to contact directly and do not respond to email enquiries in a way which makes any real sense. They do not appear even to read the email and the reply seems to be automatically generated. When such things work they are very good. But when they fail it's very expensive and hugely dissapointing.
I'm unconvinced.... September 12, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Firstly, this is a great product if you're looking for something with the same kind of features as an iPod but has twice the memory at half the price. But before you buy one you should consider this: if you've downloaded a lot of music from iTunes you should be aware that quite a lot of it might not play on the Creative MP3 player. Much of the music you download from iTunes is copy protected and will only play on an iPod. When you try to import it using the management software that comes with it you don't even get an error message. And the 'customer support' is worse than useless. It takes a full working day to get an answer - it took me 4 days and 4 emails for them just to read my message right. (The short answer to my question was that, no, you can't play these copy protected files on this MP3 player).
I thought I'd got a bargain but now I'm not so sure.
What no case, the case is how much and still no good. September 10, 2008 My 8GB ZEN works fine, the software for loading the music etc could be better, the Sandisk 8GB card I purchased, works fine and is easy to load with music if you remove it from the player and load it directly from your computer. The Radio works fine, a few to many pre sets but ok.
The Big Problem with this player is how easy it marks, do not think about using it without buying a case.
I purchase a clear plastic case for 12.31 inc postage, the case marks just as easy as the zen player, remove the ring when its in your pocket, it rubs on the case. After a little use you may need glasses to try and read the screen through the case, its expensive for what it is, should have been included with the Zen.
With a better included case or a mark resitant screen I would give it five stars.
Death has taken my MP3................... September 1, 2008 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
what can i say this mp3 has just disappointed me so much. i bought the creative Zen 8GB about late July on amazon as it was cheap and i thought it be greate to have a different Mp3 after my ipod shuffle kinda broke. on the 1st of september the mp3 died and just after converting clips off my computer and transverting on to it. but JUST as i was about to turn it on, it just won't turn on and never again! I don't know if it broke because of the brand or because i ordered it from amazon but if any customers on the amazon that are planning to buy this Crap..... then i SUGGEST NOT TO BUY IT.
