RE: Creative zen 16GB drive
I just bought the 4 gb model of this player for my wife. All I had to do was plug it in and wait for the thing to be recognised. When it's recognised, and you open the drive in explorer, you'll find a folder called storage or something like that. Open that folder and you'll find Music, Recordings, Pictures, etc. Open the one you want and then copy and past contents into the folder. I haven't tried adding things on an external memory card though. Does it use, standard sd or mini or micro sd cards? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim Martin Sent: Saturday, August 09, 2008 12:47 PM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: Creative zen 16GB drive Hi all, Has anyone gotten any experience using the zen 16gb drive? If so, is there a way to copy files without using WMP? I want to copy some audio files to the player, but really would like to use Windows Explorer to copy the files. Any assistance will be appreciated.

RE: The quality of books from audible.com
Another source for some of the same and other material is http://www.audiobookstand.com It's encoded in drm wmp. You can also buy books on cd or tape. They don't offer the same kind of reader plans, but the prices aren't too bad and there's always lots of stuff on sale. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dane Trethowan Sent: Friday, August 08, 2008 8:59 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: The quality of books from audible.com Ok, well I'll check to be sure but I take your point about some of the older books and that may be the reason why, I note that some of my books in my library are at a lower format than others. Anyway its a good service an because of what you've pointed, out I'll find out what format level each book is available up to, I've also made a point of purchasing more books on CD.

If you use one of the lower formats such as 2 or 3 the audio isn't very good. It could also be that you're downloading an old book and sometimes they're only available in the lower formats (bit rates). - Original Message - From: Dane Trethowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, August 08, 2008 8:27 PM Subject: The quality of books from audible.com Hi! What to users of http://www.audible.com think of the quality of audio books on the site? I have to admit to being a little disappointed that the quality was as low as it was, I've written to Audible about this and I hope that perhaps they may make higher quality encoded material available at some stage, I for one wouldn't mind paying a little more. I cancelled my membership but I still have my account on the site as the service itself is a great one and I'm hoping that it will get even better over time. * Dane Trethowan From Melton Victoria Australia mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PHONE: +613 8732 9237 Fax: +613 9743 7954 mobile: +61 418 773 5532 MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: callto:grtdane12 ** Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] * Dane Trethowan From Melton Victoria Australia mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PHONE: +613 8732 9237 Fax: +613 9743 7954 mobile: +61 418 773 5532 MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: callto:grtdane12 ** Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Creative zen 16GB drive
Hi Clifford, It doesn't work quite like that on this drive. I'm still working on it, and will post to the list how I got it to work. I wish it was as easy as you said, but for some strange reason they made this one a little more complex as far as how the computer works with it.
