If you're using 2000/XP you should be able to recognize the device as another storage drive after you plug it in. Then just upen it up from "My Computer" and drag and drop.

I'm using WinXP, and I don't see my Rio 600 show up as another storage drive in Windows Explorer. How do you do it?

I just installed Sveta Portable Audio.

It lets you use Windows Explorer to browse your music files, right-click on a file, convert it to a different format (e.g MP3 192Kb to WMP 64Kb), and transfer it to your Rio 600. $19.00 to register it after 30 day free trial.

Still not quite as simple as just "drag 'n' drop" files. <sigh>
