First of all, this is a fine music player. The “WOW” and bass enhancements add to inherently good sound quality. There’s even a 5-band equalizer. If that’s your main use for the unit, though, Olympus WS-300M Recorder might be better to spend a little more money on the WS-320M with four times as much memory. Loading music into the unit couldn’t be simpler. Just plug it into a USB port and copy your MP3 and WMA files to its Music folder. The tiny display shows all the song titles, so you can select what you want to hear–or choose to play everything or just the contents of one folder. It will hold any type of file, not just those it understands, so you can use it to transfer data from one PC to another. For recording, there are several choices of quality. At the lowest quality setting, it will hold 68 hours, so the memory capacity is quite sufficient. Also you can select whether to record at full sensitivity or to cut it back and talk close to the mic for noise reduction. At maximum sensitivity I have gotten excellent recordings of bird calls, even with birds more than 100 feet away. The recording are stored in WMA format. They can be reviewed on the unit itself or copied to a PC for editing and enhancementIt does not come with a carrying case. I found a leather glasses case with padding inside, a velcro flap, and a sturdy pocket clip. This has proved to be an ideal case. If you wear glasses, you probably have one of these lying around. The WS-300M is so small that the case will hold the earphones, too, and a couple of extra batteries, probably even a small external microphone.
