Great, thanks so much for your help and advice. fuz

Version 2.1, from the CD supplied with the player - there is an update on the sony site, I know, but Sony refused to give me technical assistance if I upgraded. Do you suggest an upgrade? fuz

Looks like the decision is made! As for the 192kbps option....there just isn't one when I'm setting the options in Sonic Stage. On A3+ I have the choice of 256, 64, or 48kbps. I can't imagine the lower two would be any use quality-wise, but reckon 192 would be a nice compromise between space and quality.... fuz

Thanks...in the absence of 192kbps, would you suggest 256k A3+ or 132k A3? fuz

Hello all, I was lucky enough to be given a Vaio VGF-AP1L fo rmy birthday (hooray!) and want to put as much of my rather large music collection onto the little lovely. I'm trying to decide between Atrac3 132kbps or Atrac3plus at 256kbps or 64kbps. Not sure what differences will be rendered... I'm a music lecturer, so it's quite important to me to get hte right balance between quantity (being able to play anything anytime to my students) and quality (being able to play a decent quality track...) Thanks in advance for your thoughts, fuz
