Philips EXP2561 Portable Touchscreen MP3/ CD Player

I purchased two of these. One for myself and also one for my Aunt, who does not have a computer.I'd wanted to send her some audio books I burned from Librivox ( Public Domain ). But all the MP3 players have tiny little cards. She's over 70, under 90 yrs old. This is perfect!! The sounds is beautiful! Clear, crisp. Ear phones are comfortable. The player is not heavy, but is well made. It's easy to use. I was able to fit 6 books on one CD.The music sounds lovely! My only complaint is that it doesn't come with a power or car adapter.Or an adapter to hook up to another system that doesn't play MP3's. But I'm looking around to remedy those little oversights :0)I intend to purchase one for another Aunt.

I purchased this item for my teenager who is totally estactic with the way this item operates. I have always felt that Phillips was a good brand, but the way that they designed this player makes it easy for just about anyone to be able to understand how to use it's features. This player has a number volume level, so you can tell what sound level you are on. When you put this player on pause, it has a great feature that it will beep at you to remind you that you have put it on pause, and not turned off the player. This player has todays great technology at yesterdays prices.The ONLY thing that my teenager wishes that this player had is a radio. It does have a radio. Other than that, this is an excellent item to purchase and my teenager has been very satisfied!
