I'm sure it's going to allow that as good as any other regular storage device (after all Winamp is responsible for playing the files .. not the MD player). To the player the files are just going to be regular data. This is a sad day. I actually thought the guys at Sony could've changed their minds .. thinking more about their customer's demands than their own. Pathetic.

And of course _the_ question: Are you able to playback MP3s that you transfered to the player without SonicStage? (i.e. by having the player recognized as a regular USB storage device)

I'm sorry that this is rolling in late .. and I apologize if these two questions have been written down earlier or answered in another thread (please point me to the right location if they already have). I'm only curious about the new MZ-RH10/910 .. so the following questions apply to those: Am I going to be able to listen to MP3s that I transfered onto the player's Hi-MD (by using the player as a storage device) without having to have SonicStage installed? Is the player going to work with linux (i.e. am I going to be able to mount it as a regular USB storage device)? Thank you! Moe
