Napster v. Itunes,
October 25, 2003 Andy Smith (Seatlle WA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Samsung YP-910GS USB 2.0 20 GB Hard Drive and Digital Audio Player (Electronics)
I am an early adopter of gadgets. I own an Ipod and now the Samsung player. For starters they are the same price for the 20GB model.
The major difference is the Samsung player integrates with the more feature laden Napster service. The Samsung player also has an FM tuner.
Both gagets play well but you might want to purchase the Sony sport headphones if you are taking the player jogging. I find that ear buds are uncomfortable and often fall out.
The Samsung player integrates nicely into what I think is a superior Napster service.
You can't go wrong with either player, yet if you want to use the more comprehensive Napster service (one that has the larger catalog, allows unlimited streaming and downloading and the ability to plan entire songs without first having to buy them-on iTUnes you can only hear 30 sec clips if you don't buy), Napster is it and the Samsung player would be your choice.

What a Player!,

Got my Napster player today at Best Buy (sorry Amazon!)
Been playing around with it and its great-I am still learning all the features and spending time on the Napster site. I am transfering my entire collection of MP3 files and getting some new ones from Napster which are not mp3 but handled nicely by the player.
I am going to take my car out for a spin soon and see how the player perform in the auto environment.
So far this is by far the best player I have owned.

Good performance overall,

I bought this a month ago from Amazon and I enjoy it so far.
My general rating of 4 stars out of 5 is based on the following:Reliability in use: 5/5 -so far... (absolutely no glitches)Feel and look: 4/5 (I don't like the white carrying case and wish it came with an armband. The aluminum/plastic hardcase of the player is a good protection against "accidents".)Battery life: 5/5 -I get at least 10 hrs. (never waited to drain it completely-maybe you get more)Built-in controls: 4/5 -solid feel, they do their job, but not a perfect layoutSound: 5/5 but after using a set of good earphones. The ones that come with it are average quality. "Remote" control: 3/5. I wish it had more features and I'm afraid the plastic might break in time. I haven't used it much, though.Charger and USB cable: no problems here. A charging cradle would have been nice....Audio formats: MP3 and WMA. Two formats are better than one....Napster interface for music...Read more
