iRiver ChromeX iMP-150 CD/MP3 Player with 120-Second Anti-Skip and Upgradeable Firmware description
The innovative iMP-150 (also available as the iMP-150CK, with car kit) comes stacked to the gills with features like broad format compatibility, prebuffering, antiskip protection, firmware upgradability, graphic LCD with multilanguage display, and packet-write format readability so the player can double as a hard drive extension (using data CD-RWs).

The ChromeX supports music CDs and homemade CD-Rs and CD-RWs with MP3, WMA, and Microsoft's Advanced Systems Format (ASF). New formats such as AAC and mp3PRO can be supported in the future through a simple firmware upgrade. The iMP-150CK also supports Winamp playlists as long as they use the .m3u file extension (a maximum of 20 lists).

The player provides 40 seconds of skip protection for conventional audio CDs, 120 seconds for MP3 (44.1 kHz, 128 Kbps standard), and 240 seconds for WMA (44.1 kHz, 64 Kbps). By applying iRiver's own special algorithm, the iMP-150CK provides better performance against shock than standard antiskip algorithms. At the same time, iRiver maximizes protection at the beginning of songs through prebuffering.

The iMP-150CK comes with a graphic LCD that supports multiple languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, and other alphabet-oriented fonts; Korean; Japanese (katakana, hiragana, and kanji); and others--a total of 35 languages. With MP3 (128 Kbps) files, the iMP-150 can play for 16 hours on two AA batteries (not included).

♥♥♥♥♥ A wonderful MP3 CD player.
I have two MP3 CD players - one by Jensen and this one by IRiver. This one was definitely worth the extra money. I love the firmware upgrade feature. I have done it several times over the last year. The in-line remote is very handy. My flash MP3 player is better for jogging than this CD player, but this one is great in the car and attached to the home stereo.

We also use it like a boombox with external speakers in my daughter's room to play MP3 versions of her favorite music sometimes.

I really like this CD player.
