Creative Zen Micro Photo 8 GB MP3 Player (Pink) Review

This is an excellent Mp3 player. I have had mine for 3 years now and it has worked wonderfully the entire time. I have dropped it numerous times, I use it everyday and work out with it. No problems. The reason I only gave the battery 3 stars is because recently (within the last 6 months or so)the battery has not held its charge as long as it used to. That's frustrating. But a new battery is like 15$ so no big deal. I also gave 4 out of 5 stars for sound quality because after so much use and abuse, a short has developed in the internal speakers. This means I have to sort of "tap" on the front of the player to get sound in both ears. But, again, this is a recent development after years of intense daily use. Basically the player still sounds great and works well. I have had no software problems, freezing or related problems of any kind. I would definitely buy another one or another creative product.
