The Creative MuVo Slim 256MB MP3 Player is one of the thinnest MP3 players I have seen in a long time. It has a nice sleek look and is very small and easily portable. This MP3 player also features some of the best sound quality on the market today. At the size of a credit card and weighing just over 1.5 ounces, it is one of the smallest MP3 players available. At 256 MB, it can hold over 4 hours of music and has a relatively long battery life of over 15 hours. A handy feature available in the MuVo Slim is the FM Radio tuner and recorder. Some people just prefer to record their favorite songs or talk shows of the radio and save them. This way they can listen to all of there favorite tunes and news programs without paying for them or downloading them illegally. The radio is also a great alternative when it gets boring listening to the same set of songs over and over again. The radio sound quality is good although the sound quality may be slightly altered in recorded files. The MuVo Slim also allows you to record your own voice and save these files directly onto your MP3 player.
