"a player squarely aimed at the iPod crowd". What the hell does this mean???? Does anybody know. Wouldn't they be better aiming it at the non-iPod crowd seeing it's not an iPod product. Just seems to make a bit more sense to me. I bought this player (and love it) yet I will never buy an iPod (the anti-iPod crowd). Obviously this player isn't squarely aimed at me! Should I return it?
Additionally congradulations on not referring in any way to the musical ability of this player. Fantastic. Is this where it's squarely aimed at the iPod crowd? The quality of the music is no where near the importance of me fitting in with the rest of the iPod crowd.

MP3 fans will either love or hate the Cowon D2+ design, a player squarely aimed at the iPod crowd - but with more multimedia options that most Apple offerings for the same price.

What do you think? Join the discussion.

Just bought the latest Cowon D2+ as it now has DAB+ digital radio as well as FM.
The sound quality seems a shade better than iPod and it's a damned sight easier to load with music - windows explorer or equivalent is all you need, it appears as an external hard drive.
Small point, but they also give the software updates, whereas iTunes charge for correcting something they missed, or stuffed up in the first place.
Early days, I know, but so far I'm very pleased with the Cowon.

Gedday Denis, on the review page there's a tab for user reviews, Why not click it and do a bit more of a review

Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.

Ask questions. There's no such thing as a stupid one, just stupid answers. (mostly)

That's a review? You're joking right? You honestly couldn't be bothered using it for more than 30 seconds to write a tad bit more?

Heck, I wrote a review on this same player (yes, it's the same player minus the firmware update) on this very site!
