Hardly ever skips with ESP off, never with it on, great sound, great looks, supplied earphones surprisingly good, really good features, good battery life

lid and battery lid slightly loose

This is a great buy, it looks great works great, has good features. I said pretty much everything in the strengths, I hope it lasts for me.

Seems to not skip while running. Good features. Looks nice.

I am writing another review of this discman, because I have had it for a couple months now and I haven't much of anything wrong with it. I was using it taking my dog for a walk the other day and for about an hour i was just walking around and i was about a half hour away from my house and it was already dark so i started running while listening to my music and it was even more shaky for the discman because my dog was yanking me all over the place and i was holding it at my side while i ran and it did not skip even after running for about half a minute, and Sonys only have 10 seconds ESP so it shows Sony has done something right with this discman. i only heard it skip once the whole time and it was in my pocket and my stupid dog was pulling me all over the place and its not a very tight pocket so the cd player bounces around a lot. but its the only cd player i can use while walking with it in my pocket.

Good sound, durable, doesn't skip easily even without ESP on, decent battery life

Bulky compared to new players

Lots of people are going for MP3 or minidisc now but good old cd still sounds a lot better. Sure this cd players not so good for putting in all pockets but I still prefer it. It's lasted almost 3 years so far.
