Rio 600 (32 MB) MP3 Player

Pros: small, lightweight, excellent sound, doesn't skip
Cons: none

My husband got this for me for Xmas thinking I said I wanted one...really it was he who said he wanted it. I was unsure about having an mp3 player since it seemed like an expensive gadget and there are other things I could do with the money. Before...

Pros: Small, good controls, huge sound, CHEAP, and updatable
Cons: Expensive memory upgrades, must convert to WMA for max songs, newer better stuff available now.

I got this little lovely off of Craigslist for $35 with nice headphones (which cost $20 alone) and I use it plenty. It does everything that you could want and there are firmware updates available. You should convert your files to WMA as it use about ha ...

Pros: small and lightweight, expandable,easy to use
Cons: breaks easily,stops working,software messy,

I got this player for christmas and it was my first mp3 player. When i got the software it didnt w ...

Pros: Uh, it plays MP3s.
Cons: See review. Avoid all Rio products.

My 600 recently fell- oh, 3 feet. Once you take this thing apart, you will truly realize what little goes into these players. It can't be fixed- why? the connector on one of the PCBs lines up just so...if you're off, it's dead. I've got less than 50 ...

Pros: Good sound quality. Fun to use.
Cons: Not enough disk space. Battery guzzler.

I love the Rio 600! It has a fun to use OS system and great sound quality. It also looks really slick. Only bad thing, it has a very small hard drive and it uses a battery very quickly. Another cool feature of the Rio is that it has changeable...

Pros: looks good, great sound, nice display
Cons: very little storage space

Well for starters, I got it for free. It runs about $150 as of late 2001. The memory can be expanded from the standard 32MB to an astounding 340MB and still remain in your pocket. If your worried about using up lots if batteries, dont worry. I have...

Pros: Portable and convenient.
Cons: It wont Last for more than a year.

I've bought the Rio 600....twice as a matter of fact. The first time I bought it, I was thrilled with it. It was my first MP3 player, and a step up from my CD player. I like it because it was portable and compact. With memory upgrades, it could...

Pros: size, sound, price, easy interface
Cons: memory, very bad headphones

i was looking around for a cheap mp3 player, because i dont have much money. i saw a couple at best buy, but they looked kind of crappy. so i spent a month or two researching mp3 players on the net, and wasnt that surprised with the rio 600. it...

Pros: This unit is small. Pretty good sound quality.
Cons: Durability, small capacity.

Pros:
I bought this for running. CD players skipped too much. When I first purchased this device I loved it. I took it just about everywhere with me. The sound was nice and loud to keep me motivated.
Cons:
Absolutely did not hold up!...

Pros: Nice to look at, small, light
Cons: Very poor customer service, poor quality product

My husband bought a Rio 600 about 2 years ago and I loved it. It was the first MP3 Player I had ever used. He seemed pleased with it as well. I gradually took his Rio over, so he had to buy another one for himself. Well, the Rio has a cool backpack...

Pros: Small, easy to use, easy to hook up to the computer!
Cons: Not enough memory for more than 12-15 songs.

I recieved this from my husband for a birthday present earlier this year (2003). I have been looking for a portable playing device to use at work. I work for the US Postal Service and when I am getting my route ready in the morning I like to listen to...

Pros: Great while it worked.
Cons: Play and FF buttons stopped working after three months.

Beware any Rio or Sonic Blue product. I won't buy from them again. My player stopped working after only 3 months. I'd like nothing more than to tell you that Sonic Blue Customer support replaced my defective player to keep a happy customer, but I...

Pros: Small, Doesn't Skip, Great Tech Support
Cons: Expensive.

I am a self proclaimed Napster guru. I have downloaded thousands of songs and wanted to be able to listen to them in the car and at the gym. So what did I do? Lug around a computer at the gym? NO! I bought an mp3 player. (You really thought I carried...

Pros: Rechargeable battery, easy to use.
Cons: Only 32mb, and memory isn't standard.

The Rio600 has 32mb memory, I purchased an additional 64mb ($80). I like the rechargable battery, it's a standard AA battery so if it goes bad, it's cheap and easy to replace. It has USB interface and downloads pretty quickly. I don't like that the...

Pros: Looks good, can operate without looking at, good sound quality, good customer service
Cons: Likes batteries, breaks a lot, costs a lot, memory is expensive

The Rio 600 is an ok product. When you first get it you will notice the nice blue color and sound quality. I personally believe that this Rio has the best sound quality and colors.

I run and this is the perfect companion. I can put it in my...
