do any walkman's play cd-rw?

[hconnorjr]

seems like a great way to deal with mp3's. burn 'em into a cdrw. when you want a new lineup just reburn. surely someone is selling this. help!

 

[sohcrates]

My roomate has a Rio Volt that reads mp3's right off cd-rw (in raw form, mind you, you don't have to convert to .wav files)

it's pretty cool

edit: they run about 100-150 at circuit city or you can find them on the 'net

 

[hconnorjr]

sounds like exactly what i'm looking for. thanks!

My Sony Diskman plays them, it can be had for about $50 at Best Buy, Circuit City, etc.

i'm not a fan of the sony discman technology. it's been an invention seeking an application for years. besides it doesn't have the huge storage of a cd-rw. but thanks anyway.

next year: dvd music walkman. talk about storage!

what are you talking about? are you really trying to say that a cd player has been seeking an application for years? say what?

or are you talking about minidisc? but then, they still have 74-80 minutes of audio storage....

 

[hconnorjr]

sorry, seems i've got my terms mixed up. i'm referrng to the sony minidisc that's been around for so long looking for a use. didn't realize the discman was a cd-r and cd-rw.

Diskman is just a plain old portable CD player, and again yes mine will read CDR media.

I think he mean's "plays mp3 CD-R's". In that case you should get the Rio Volt. Any CD player plays cd-r's, only some play mp3's.

Do you have any more onfo. about the Rio Volt sohcrates? Sounds like a preaty good little CD/Mp3 player. I would love to have one of those... I have been looking at getting one of those Creative nomad jukeboxes... but this sounds better and a hell of alot cheaper!

The site!

I found this site... this little thing is amazing! There are 2 models of this, the SP90 and the SP250. I have to say that the SP90 is very well priced. I am hoping to find someone in Australia who is importing these.

Does anyone know of any resellers of Rio products in Australia?

 

[DaiShan]

guys he means cd-rw as in rewritable, not minidisc not plain cd-r but re writable discs! (deeeeep breath breath in breath out)

??????????
Did you look at the sites I posted? If you read about the Rio Volt you will seee that it plays CDR's and CDRW's in wave and Mp3 and WMA and any other type of audio format as it is flash upgradeable. So... I think we answered this guys questions.

To quote the product description....
