I own a Cowon D2 and it works fine with Rhapsody To Go. I believe you need to make sure that the USB Connection is set to MTP. You can access this through Settings, System.

I think Amazon probably has the best collection of MP3 files which work on pretty much any player out there, so I would go with them. I don't think any of the subscription services work with the d2 (Rhapsody to go, and similar) so it will be a buy every song affair. I think Amazon has some of the best prices too.

Sheldon, can you please define this better? I cannot get my D2 to work with Rhapsody, so which settings do you adjust to MTP? on the cowan, computer, rhapsody???Thanks

I'm going to ask you one more question if you don't mind. If I just want the best player I can find to listen to music and don't care about lists, album art, interfaces or anything else. I just want to put my songs on the player and listen to them in the order they come up, which do you recommend? (Can you tell I'm an old lady and just love to listen to music? LOL!) All that matters to me is good sound, ease of putting songs on the player, number of songs I can add to the player and how long it will play music on one charge. Even the Cowan 160 GB player sounds interesting to me.

The song loading time is actually quite good, even when switching to different artists. The only slow part, is when you initially select USB as the input. It takes close to 10 seconds to actually load my 8gb flash drive. But after that it's fairly fast. I have not yet played any videos from the USB input, but I wouldn't expect it to be any different from songs.

Pretty easy. I use Media Monkey and have autosynch set up. Or, you can just drag and drop files - it shows up as drive on your comuter when plugged in via the USB. The Cowon interface takes a little getting used to. More folders-based than Apple or Android products. That said, I don't mind it and the better sound quality and file compatability makes it worth it. BTW, Cowon is being responsive to my warranty claim. Not impressed with the build quality on this device. Much preferred the earlier generation and the S9. But I don't see many other complaints, so perhaps I just had an aberration.

Hey guys, so alexander miller was actually right. You can upgrade to version 10 for free you just need to follow the instructions alex gave above. I hastily returned it though without realizing. Yes, this is a good deal but I ended up getting just the mbox 3 without the full version of pro tools since I've yet to even open pro tools lol. (Still doing everything in ableton live)

Hey Deanna, I purchased this item on Sept 9th, and I am still using it. I am happy to share with you my experiences thru which you will find the answers to your questions. Firstly, I would care to let you know why I purchased this item. I love to listen to my favorites musics on the go. I had used transmitters of the other so-called brands, and ended up using a tape adapter, but I was not satisfied because they died earlier. So, I purchased this device. Secondly, I tell you the good things about it. Whatever channel you choose, the transmission is 100% clear with no intercession with the others. The transmission goes widely to a point that another car can stick on your musics with no interruption. It reads everything mentioned, and even a flash drive. It plays alphabetically, so you can choose what music must be played first by naming the music with an A...or a number 1..2..3... I can't tell about the MP4, because I don't have any file in that format. Overall, I would just suggest that you give it try...and then...tell me whether or not my answer was reasonable to you. Thanks!

Is there an updated link or answer to this question? I love the music but the music box attachment broke.

I'm waiting for a 128gb flash player that SOUNDS good, and can be loaded with a standard usb cable, and not requiring some proprietary software (read itunes). I test drove a 64gb ipod touch when it first came out, because my 16gb cowon iaudio7 is too small, but it sounded terrible, admittedly it was a stock set of tunes ripped at a low bit rate, but when I wanted to load up my own max bit rate tunes to it, the geniuses at the apple store couldn't fathom why someone would want to listen to tunes they'd ripped themselves, or how to make it happen. Hopefully someone raises the bar on storage space and sound quality, neither of which should be hard at this point. I wish someone would swing for the fences and do a flash 256gb player. I have to admit, I'm anachronistic, in that I don't want internet access, apps, videos, etc. just a gigantic music player that's not disk based (use it on a motorcycle, drop it constantly on the commute), that sounds fantastic and has great battery life. The more things a device does, the performance of each of those things suffers.

Hi Phil It works with wmp, but not with iTunes in the same way. You could make and name a folder on the desktop, then drag a playlist into the folder then copy it to the Cowon, but dropping it into the cowon's music folder. Incidently the Cowon recognises 64gig SD cards and I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't recognise the new 128gb micro sd cards

Thanks to all of you on this thread! Like Karen B. and the others, I've been going nuts trying to get my Sansa C250 to show up on my home PC. No problem on the one at work. (You wouldn't believe how 'creative' I had to get to download an audiobook at home.) I downloaded the Firmware Updater and followed the instructions and I can FINALLY 'drag and drop' at home.

If I had to pick one, it'll be the D2 because of sound quality and how the SD card integrates into the library. Checkout "anythingbutipod" website for reviews on wide variety of MP3 players.

I am having trouble with the software downloading. I loaded a free audacity on my computer but I haven't tried it yet.

I only needed it on one devise. In the past I've called Amazon and gotten help with multiple music and book downloads. Contact Amazons Help & customer service department, they can probably help.

I still haven't figured out how to make the playlist. but to install songs are very simple. I just use the random function to play songs now. the controls is a bit weird at first but a day of using it you should be fine

You're welcome, Rick! Yeah, it's good for mp3s too, lol, and even though that's the main reason I bought it, plus video, I have hardly listened to any music or vids. :)
