Can you scroll through audio with Cowon players. Since I listen to audio books and lectures I don't want a player that simply returns me to each track

Yes you can. There is a 'list' button which helps you navigate between tracks.

It will play then sequentially. I have so many tracks that I still haven't reached the last one. But, if I remember correctly you have the option to loop, shuffle, or stop at the end.

One important clarification - it remembers the file you were on and starts playing it from the beginning, but if you were listening to, say, a lecture which is 1+ hours long, it won't remember where you stopped, so it will start it over from the beginning. You have NO way to fast forward (only skip), which is why I'll be returning mine.

No it does not..you can scroll text files/songs/artist or radio name and song on screen if you set it to..Youtube it for a demo.

This is a very simple player with the exception of having Bluerooth. No it does not bookmark. Nor does it seem to have the ability to advance through an audio piece.

If You use the cowon player, yes. Actually depending on size this can take quite a while. You can use other Android player, yet I felt the original one works best.

Yes you can listen to audio books. I would suggest making it a playlist so you can find it if you have other play lists loaded.

You can't select tracks from a thumb drive. The songs will play in the order they are listed. You can, however, skip over a song.

Actually, I get around this problem by using an Open Source program called "Audiobook cutter" to split very long files into tracks of about 5 minutes in length. That way I can skip from track to track with one click of the 'forward' or 'backward' directional buttons. Here's a link: http://www.audiobookcutter.com/products.htmlI find the free edition perfectly adequate to my purposes, and have used it for several years -- ever since I started downloading audiobooks from our local library system's electronic resources: Library2Go and Overdrive.

I know that some of the older creative players have this feature. My parents have a Zen Micro that makes pretty good recordings. I don't know if the new ones can still make recordings. Also I have a Cowon d2 that can make fm recordings. It's an awesome media player with great sound quality and a ton of features, but it might be a bit pricey if all you are going to use it for is recording radio.

Yes, I bought this player to listen to audiobooks which I borrow from a couple of different public libraries. There is room for 10 bookmarks, so I can keep up with several different books or different sections of the same book.

A little late , but, for what it is worth, I have had a Cowon A2 for 4 or 5 years now and it has worked for me flawlessly and I use it constantly. The first one I received did have a recording quirk, but Cowon quickly replaced it without any problems. For their current models they are constantly tweaking & updating the firmware to improve and enhance the product. The biggest drawback though is their official forum/support page; finding help there can be frustrating. iaudiophile.net is a decent fan page to get answers from other users though.

For me, and by virtue of owning other Cowon mp3 and PMP players it was a snap. Once connected to ones computer it's seen as a hard drive thus allowing one to drag and drop music/photos/documents. There after the setup, and various buttons and overall way it falls to my hand is now second nature. But I will say that I am a novice in some areas that are not germane to what and why I purchase these players, which is just to simply listen to and enjoy music. I'm not concerned with tags, folder art or any of that just seeing my music it's name\artist and hit play. And that it where the bliss for me begins and ends. I hope this helps.

No. I bought it JUST for audiobooks, not music. It shuffles chapters, even though I have it turned to direct play. If you accidentally hit the forward or back button, forget trying to find your original place.

Sorry, but I can't answer that question. I have only used the player to listen to the existing books. I am aware you can add audio books and music but not how to do it. I asked the manufactures of this product several questions and one if them was "Can I add books and Music and delete existing ones and they said YES!. I have not yet pursued that but I did find the people at Library of Classics to be very helpful on 3 occasions that I spoke with them. I suggest you contact them by way of email at--- info@libraryoftheclassics.com for the answer to your question. They are most friendly and easy to correspond with via email.

I don't have an audio book on mine yet, but for a song, there is a play speed option when you hold down the right side of the screen for an extra 2 seconds. It can be set to 0(default), 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Not sure what speeds they correspond to. Since audio books are part of the Music library options, I would guess this option is also available for audio books. I have firm-ware version 2.01US, so you might have to upgrade if your player has an older firmware. I didn't remember seeing the audio books option in the earlier firmware.

Hi Larry - I am also looking for mp3 player for audiobooks from NetLibrary - Do you know if Sansa has bookmarking feature? How did you narrow your choices to Sansa? Thanks for your help. Willow
