Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: Small, but very good quality sound

Weakness: Initial trouble figuring out why wma files wouldn't play

Bought 3 of these in Nov 2004. One for me, 2 for kids. It took me quite a while to figure out why certain or most wma files wouldn't play. Copyright protection. If you pull files straight off a retail CD using WMP or straight from a CD using Media Source (the software that comes w/MuVo) the files will not play on the device. Various ways to get around that problem. But because of that problem, I...

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: Light Weight

Weakness: No Random Play

I like it and would buy it again at around 120.00. Works great for working out. The no random play is a hassle but it does go fast forward and reverse fast. I had troulbe using it on XP without using the software that came with the product.

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: It's light?

Weakness: Files tranfer horribly

Songs do not transfer from hard drive to player with ease. Even after formatting the player multiple times (using the manufacturers software) songs will often play with samples from other songs I deleted days ago! They other day it was playing 7 different songs all jumbled into one. I get errors all the time when ejecting the player. This happens on all of my office computers and home computer....

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: Simple, Light, USB port convenience

Weakness: TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE: Battery Cover falls off

It's too bad that this great player is rendered worthless by the problem with the battery cover. It's almost a $200 item, but the battery cover is a flimsy piece of plastic that does not stay on. Mine has fallen off a bunch of times, and I lost it once (creative did not have any spare covers for sale at any price) but by a miracle someone turned it in at my gym to lost and found. Now I tape it...

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: small, light, high capacity

Weakness: spartan

I have used four mp3 players for music while snowboarding and running three times a week for the last three years. They succeeded years of portable CD player. The Muvo 128 holds about 39 songs. Sound quality is good. Supplied earbuds are better than average quality for an mp3 player. Battery life is shorter than I would like and I recommend buying rechargeable (NiMh) batteries immediately. The...

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: small, usb drive, sound qality good while works

Weakness: not durable, static noises when battery level is low, eats batteries in 4-5 hours not 12 as advertised.

Woow, so out of specification. Nothing is right about this product. Yes, the sound quality is good but ony when the battery is full, otherwise you usually get static noise nothing else. THe only advantage of it is being small and ability to be used as a usb drive. I'd only recomend you to think twice, nope ten times buying before this product, it smells trouble it is trouble. A good example of a...

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: NONE

Weakness: EVERYTHING

Since I have recieved this product I have used it about .5 hours and been on the phone with customer service for about 4. This product is horrible, my songs always cut off at the same point unless I hook it up to powered speakers. The little AAA battery can't power my unit. I sugest to everybody that they nevery buy this product or any other creative product due to their rudeness on customer...

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: Size, weight, holds 25-30 songs

Weakness: No Display, But not a big deal since it is in my pocket most of the time.

Have looked and played with many mp3 players. If samll size and weight is what you are looking for you found it. I have a mac so I love the drag and drop of my music files into the player. The usb plug plugs right into my key board usb port. Love it would recommend to all.

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: Small size, Wonderful sound quality, Very light, and 100% Compatible for Mac

Weakness: No LED. Must copy the songs in the order you want them played (not really that big of a deal). No expandable memory

I bought this because I was tired of carrying around a CD player while walking to class or working out. This thing is so small (a little bigger than a Bic lighter) letting you slip it in your pocket or let it hang from your neck on the included strap. At 128 MB of memory you can easily hold 30 songs. Just plug it into your USB port and XP immediatly sees it as an external hard drive. All thats...

Creative NOMAD MuVo MP3 Player

Strengths: Simple to use, GREAT AWESOME SOUND QUALITY, nice drag and drop feature for windows 2000 and Xp Pro(not sure about home), fairly durable as far as electronics go, and decent battery life

Weakness: No random function

Upon recieving it I noticed that the earbuds were defective in that when they split for right and left the left was considerably shorter than the right. Not to big of a deal though, creative took care of it nice and fast. I would recomend getting a different head set...On a good Jensen or Sony set you'll notice a massive difference for only $15-$20 spent on them. People this is good for: Anyone...
