I'm thinking about getting an MP3 player so I'll have something to listen to when I run. (When I finish my marathon training program, I'll have to run solo, which makes me very bored.)
Requirements are:
1) Must work with Mac (but no FireWire  )
2) Must play at least three hours worth of music (that's 12 miles)
3) Must be small enough to carry while running (maybe around waist) |

Didn't help much. But I found that if I load just songs, it works fine. If I try to convert a book on CD to MP3 and put those files on the Rio, though, I get error messages. Maybe there's a problem with the books on CD. |

the users manual usually does help |

Got it!  Now I just have to figure out how to make it work.
I have (I think) translated three discs from a Maya Angelou book on CD, which are now in my iTunes library. It's only three hours worth of audio, but for some reason I can't get it to fit on the Rio. I think I'll have to actually open the user's manual. |

Thanks, it looks cool.
Now for an ignorant question. Do you know what it takes to get music from a CD to this little player? (or any one of these little players for that matter?) Do I need to buy some other software? |
