 The best mp3 out there! July 10, 2008
The best MP3 player I've owned. Easy to use, good integration with Rhapsody good interface and great sound. I was in a hotel that had WiFi and was able to get all the benefits of Rhapsody as I do at home. Strongly recommend Ibiza Rhapsody!
The Rhapsody Service makes all the difference June 28, 2008
This product can be a little slow to jump between functions, but the Rhapsody to-go service is unparalleled in terms of value. For something like $28/month, you have the ability to download 4.5 million songs with no 'price per song or album' as with Apple's competing iTunes service. While all the media is still DRM protected by REALPLAYER's HELIX DRM solution, the simple fact that you can fill up a 30G Ibiza with all the album's you can't afford, and do it LEGALLY is simply amazing.
The only drawbacks I've seen with the Ibiza is that it doesn't have any aftermarket components like th iPod, and there is not software equalizer or listening modes (e.g. Concert, Classical, etc...)
I gave this product a 5 star rating because it performs as advertised, and I was influenced by REALPLAYER's Rhapsody service.
Oh, another cool thing is the 802.11g wireless connection which allows you to leapfrog across genres and artists directly through your wireless router.
If you use Rhapsody, this is your type of player June 27, 2008
I was extremely surprised by how much I enjoy this MP3 player!
It sounds and looks great, and the wifi is an amazing feature! It is so much easier adding music to my player through with the wifi (through Rhapsody) rather than syncing it up to my computer. I was a bit amazed at how quick it can download music!
I've found that the battery life is a bit shorter than I'd like, but if you turn off the wifi and bluetooth capabilities while at work or the gym it does helps. Also, I just invested some money in a charging dock and car charger (Ibiza brand too, which I found it at Target), so it's not that big of a deal any more. The ear buds it comes with aren't very good at all, but I already had my own before I bought the player.
There are only two things that have bothered me a bit with this player... 1. The touch pad can be a bit tricky to work, especially if you're trying to change tracks in the car, but maybe I just need some more practice... and 2. It sorts soundtracks and compilation albums stupidly by breaking it up into separate albums for each artist featured. For example, my Darjeeling Limited album is listed as about 17 different album, each album featuring music from a specific artist on the soundtrack... very lame if you like listening to soundtracks. You can create an album playlist and add all the "broken" albums onto it in order to piece it all together, but it is a pain... but even with these problems, I still give it five stars.
Overall though, this player is definitely awesome if you are a Rhapsody subscriber (especially Rhapsody To Go). For me, the unlimited uploads are worth the $15 monthly fees... I'm always adding music to my MP3 player (around 200 songs a month), which comes out to a little under 8 cents a song, a lot cheaper than iTunes (and you can't even listen to the whole song before you buy it!). With Rhapsody's newest bombardment of advertisements, this new player could even be a great rival for the iPod (but not many companies can stand up against Apple's obnoxiously amazing marketing).
If you aren't a Rhapsody member, you definitely will not get as much joy out of this player.
 Very functional June 24, 2008
The menus are easy to use! Sound is great when plugged in to a car stereo! I had another MP3 Player (Bean Walkman from Sony), and it sounded like crap in the car. Even though there isn't an equalizer, this device doesn't need one. I love driving with this plugged in. My only complaint is the one that I have with all portable devices - the battery doesn't last near long enough! I am always charging the thing. Also, the Wifi part is a bit confusing. But I am not that wifi savvy yet. So that may be my fault. I was determined to stay away from the IPOD (Rhapsody's subscription for music is so much cheaper!No 99cents per song crap for me!), so this is a good alternative choice.
ibiza is a hit! June 14, 2008
This player combined with the to go subscription to Rhapsody is what I've always looked for in a music player. I don't have to do anything (who has the time?) other than find music on Rhapsody and drag it to the player.
Not only that, it gets updated for new features at no cost!
