Amazon.co.uk Review
Combining a high-quality 128 MB MP3 player with a compact USB hard drive, Creative Labs has created MuVo, a logical step in hybrid portable devices. MuVo is compact (about the size of a cigarette lighter) and lightweight, and it stores images, Web pages, and other documents, in addition to your MP3 files. Installation is a breeze. Simply plug the MuVo into a spare USB port and your PC recognizes it as a mass storage device. No drivers are needed, although the unit does ship with some drivers and a special formatting tool. Transferring files to the unit is as easy as the installation: Just drag and drop files into the player and you're set to go. Once you've transferred data or MP3 files, remove the MuVo from your computer and slide it onto the battery pack. One AAA battery will net you up to 12 hours of power. One problem we found was that because the unit doesn't ship with a cradle or USB port extension cable, we had to go around to the back of our computer every time we wanted to insert or remove the device. This isn't a problem if you have a USB hub or are using the MuVo on a laptop. Although slightly more expensive than a mass storage device of comparable size, the MuVo is ideal for those wanting a compact, versatile MP3 player. --Martin Snelling, Amazon.co.uk

 Bought one of these for each of my teens April 30, 2008
My children are 15 and 12 who received this as a gift. I was not interested in buying a high end device for either of them because they tend to leave their things lying around to get stepped on or stolen by the dog. It was perfect for them because they not only download music but also use the flash drive capability to store their homemade videos, illustrator images and even school assignments which they upload at the school computer labs. It is very durable and while it may not have state of the art audio output it is fine for listening to tunes on the school bus, in the car or while walking the dog. Awesome unit for the price.
This is very good, durable product. August 5, 2007
I bought this 64MB Muvo from WalMart, like 4 years ago, when I was in college. It's still working properly. It can take high temparature. I keep this machine in my car and I live in Florida. It's very hot in sunny day in Florida. But this machine is working fine. I dropped this machine many time on the concrete floor, and it's working fine as like nothing happended.
Only problem is its memory size. It's 64MB. Actuall memory we can use is like 54 MB. It provide drag and drop transfer, which is very convinient. I know some MP3 player requires convert format of files when we transfer into machine. I can store like 10 songs in this machine. But I can re-loaded song when I got tired of songs. Someday, I will get new larger memory MP3 player. But I am okay with this product right now.
I think current MP3 player manufactures do not know what customers want. They just put many un-neccesary features like Text view, photo view, and Video view, Voice recording and etc, which most of cunsumers will never use.
What I want from MP3 player is
1. Durability like this machine and
2. Easy Inteface(Easy Usability) like Ipod.
3. Quality sounds like Samsung mp3 players.
If you want simple - buy this one. May 23, 2007
I purchased this for my little neffew. This is his first MP3 player. This player is very simple, and non-frustrating for a first-timer. It does what it does quite well, and it is about the size of a pack of gum. However, if you can still find this one (it has been discontinued by the manufacturer), and you want simple, buy it!
 Was great, but is now very much out of date January 4, 2007

This player is too old and not worth the money. Spend a few more bucks and get a player with Gb's of storage space and way better audio output.
Worked OK for first year or so March 22, 2006
When this device worked, it was great. Small, could go running with it, and I remember excellent audio clarity. But every once in a while it wouldn't work. And I could never figure out why. 80% of the time worked great. 20% of time it really pissed me off. A year later it seems to have completely stopped working. Would probably have given a 5 if the player was more solid and tech difficulties/bugs had been worked out.
