Query: bye bye Sony

It is very user unfriendly thingy. You have to use the Sonic Stage that comes with it. I bought it in 2004 to avoid iPod. I put up with it for a while. The player itself is fine. Very flat and sleeky, stylish looking. Only the software is stupid.The audio out jack stopped working in 2007. so no more music for me. It cost me a lot of money when I bought it in Europe.Now I went iPod. Great accessorizing opportunities unlike Sony. iPod works great with many car audio. Alpine that I have let me press menu of the iPod on the reciever. iPod stays in the Glove box. Nothing like that happens with Sony Walkman (not that I know of).Byt he way, I now use it as an external hard drive. :-)
