Digital camera reviews of Creative Zen 16 GB Portable Media Player (Black)

Digital camera Review: Once Loaded, it's loaded!
Summary: 4 Stars

Creative Zen 16 GB Portable Media Player (Black)I'll start with the frustration. This product will lock up while transferring files from your computer, sometimes needs to be reset.
But--once the music is loaded, this MP3 is loaded. Much faster bootup than a hard drive (I bought the first 40B IRiver nearly ten years ago). So I'm used to drag and drop music transfer. This works best using the software provided. Easy to create playlists, awesome visual of album art, photos, videos. The add-on sandisk memory card (I bought a 4GB) is great to separate photos and videos, and will allow expansion as far as the cards will take you. Plus, you can carry all the music you need for about 1oz per card.
The sound is awesome ( I use Shure studio-quality earbuds), it's smaller and more portable than my daughter's MP3 (some popular model made by a fruit company), and the screen is as large and seems clearer.
Very pleased with the overall quality and eventual ease of use. Controls are pretty intuitive.
