Not a fan of this product. I understand how it is trying to be such as a radio, but the way the demographic of 13-21 year olds listens to music is a lot of repetition. I do like the station organization but I feel they will be missing out on a lot of sales due to the fact that there is no way to repeat songs.

While I agree with most posts about the SlotRadio unit being a “waste of time” compared to other MP3’s, what it DOES afford the SR user is TIME. No need to plug the cords into the computer, sit and surf the internet for songs, download the songs to your computer, then to your other MP3 player. Its nice to just turn it on and play…done!

Oh, Annie… Yes you can download your own music onto a blank microSD card and put it in the player as well. You can’t use both cards at the same time though. Only one card fits into the player at a time. So you’d have to choose between your own music or the card with the pre-loaded music.

This is the best and most accurate review of the slotRadio that I’ve read so far! Honest and to the point.

It’s not an MP3 player, but it’s handy and portable so I think it’s great for busy moms that don’t want to hassle with cords and computer programs.

Hey Folks,
I’m looking to buy one of these things, So does this all mean you can’t have someone download (Your Music) onto a microSD card and use it along with buying the preloaded ones too??? As I have dial-up ..No high speed…So Help..

Thanks,
Annie

This thing ACTUALLY DOES play mp3s, you’re free to download any song you want to any microSD card and play it through the player.

I had a look at one of these today.

It makes as much sense as a power cord on a brick.

It uses insanely wasteful amounts of cardboard packaging on the micro SD cards, the limitations on playback pay no attention AT ALL to how kids actually listen to music (over and over and over and over the same 12 favorite songs). As an MP3 player it’s useless and over-priced.

I would think that only someone with a severe head injury and money to spend would ever consider this product, and only then if they were goaded into buying it by some sales rep from Sansa.

Save your money.

better off just getting a Slacker Radio. Ya can get a 8GB G1 for well under $99, and does the “Radio” idea much better. Ya can also add your own music/playlists.
