Cretive ZEN review

[tigeroldham]

ur camera isnt that bad

[XXSPIDAPIGX]

you can download the music to windows media player and then to your zen but i need to know were do you go to download it to media player?

[computermaniacdude]

You can download music from CDs or the amazonMP3 store , and walmart.

[xXJD3Xx]

or limewire and drag and drop them

[CLUBPENGUINBOT]

i have the same player but i cant seem to play mp4 videos do u know how to do it or what format must i change it to?

[computermaniacdude]

Make sure the song is in iTunes plus format, most songs bought since jan 25 or so should work. Sorry for spamming your comment I am still trying to figure pit how to click things correctly on a touchscreen. Also I could not undo it

[07671978]

i downloaded a song from Itunes but it wont work on my zen plllllllzzzzzzzzzzz help i have the same zen you have

[nfsmaster360]

how do you hide content on the creative zen?

[WINNIPEGAAAHAWKS]

can u get songs from limewire or do you have to get from itunes or watever

[computermaniacdude]

You can do either, and now that iTunes is all DRM free, almost all of the songs you get from it will play on the zen, but I wouldn't use limewire because it gives you viruses

[IYION3Y]

What do you think is better:The X-Fi, or this?

The only reason I'd get an X-Fi over this is because it has wi-fi. But can you actually browse the internet?

[computermaniacdude]

The x-fi is not worth it. The wifi is useless. Get the zen or the iPod touch that I own if you want to browse the Internet.

[gnr9292]

can it play 640x480 dvix?

[computermaniacdude]

no, only 320x240

[h67jjj]

it fuckin does work with media because i use media and itunes for mine u dumbass

[computermaniacdude]

I said MediaCoder (the transcoder program) and what is "media" anyway, i am guesiing you are not referring to the audio and video content.

[wohcap]

solid job

[zubelerr]

can u save music 2 da memory card and listen 2 it??????????

[DemonTailz]

Yep

[MookieAllen]

im getting one dec.16 my b-day

its awsome

[locnguyen223]

wat zen version is this call?

[computermaniacdude]

just "ZEN"

i dont know why creative named it that way without a suffix.

[locnguyen223]

n do u know why i cant turn it on?

i reset it

i try to charger it

i try mostly everything please reply

[computermaniacdude]

I dont know, my zen wont turn on unless i plug it into the charger and NO, the battery is not dead,and it will stay on after it is plugged in to "jump start" it.

[sabrewulf09]

maybe the plug is damage. sometimes these devices had a damage plug and it wont turn on

if the battery is charge and it wont turn on than it's the plug but if it dosent charge then yours it damage adn need another one if you wanted it back

[megamanlan777]

if you have a portable games console you don't need games on mp3

[GodsFinestOfThemAll]

its wonderful it reminds me of a little tv i love it i cant wait til i get mines

[GRAWNESS]

if that was touch screen that would be the bomb

[GuitrCrzy]

yea that would rock i buying it rite now!!! lol

[benmoonrocks]

YEAH!!!

also have you seen the other zen similar to this one only there is the x-fi built in? yo that would be awsome, and with a touch screen; it would be sold out everywhere everyday

[benmoonrocks]

it barely breaks, and it's exactly like an ipod except it doesnt have any games!!!

2nd best mp3 next to the ipod.

[moneyman154]

i still think it's a tie

[benmoonrocks]

well ipod breaks more easly, but ipod has games and more features.

the price for this mp3 is sooo much better though

[hypertom95]

the zen has more features

[benmoonrocks]

oh yeah... no one plays games on a tiny screen

yeah you are right this IS the best mp3 ever

excellent quality and stuff

[biscuitskillet]

but this has FM radio! ipod doesn't. who seriously plays da games on da ipod anyway.

[JDWilly]

Actually the iPod classic has more than twice the memory and cost cheaper... I think i'll get the classic instead of this. Also i accidentally slammed my iPod nano in my car door and it works fine lololo

[sabrewulf09]

you said it the classic but the new ones honestly i don't like the new ones now thei are more sensitive if you now what I mean I have a zen i just put music more easly then the ipod, i know that that's a mp3 but the ipod shoud do the samething.

[jakass505]

lol

[Evaldas521]

It also reads .m4a :)

[computermaniacdude]

only if you use the itunes encoder

[AnthonyFricker]

nice review man! One question, if I put a big SD card full of music into the player, does the media on the card come up in the normal music browser? or have you to got to remember whats on the card and whats on the zen?

[computermaniacdude]

Sadly, no. BUT! out all your music on your player and play your VIDEOS on the SD card. Hopefully they will add that in a firmware update later though.

[Wouwousoft]

I don't have the thing, but I think you can.

My old Creative Zen Micro has this playlist function, where you can just go to a piece of music, select "Add to selected music" and it'll be added. Can you try that before I buy? :P

[computermaniacdude]

I would but i dont have an SD card. :(

[rudinza1]

dude!Awesome review!And awesome player!

[andr3w92]

great review mate! dunno y it hasn't been commented yet

[computermaniacdude]

thanks dude.

[jettz31]

this is by far the best review i've seen on the zen. thanks dude. one question, do you think it is worth the dough or which mp3 player would you recommend?

[computermaniacdude]

what do you mean?

[mystermy]

I believe he means is the Zen worth the money or do you think there are better MP3 players for the money that you would choose over the Zen.

[computermaniacdude]

oh if thats what he means, then it is the best for the money
