Sweet looking device, but now its just another pos.
So sad...]]>Jul 9th 2007 2:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/
I almost dislike Real as much as I dislike Sony. ALMOST!]]>Jul 9th 2007 2:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/Jul 10th 2007 10:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/'Subscription service': if you dont use it, you loose it.
'PlaysForSure - Compatible players': Speaks for itself.
'expiration date': If I purchase anything other than food, it damn sure better not expire, untill im done with it.
And to add insult to injury, as you say it doesnt work with all PlaysForSure devices. So really its a hit and miss situation. But you dont have to worry if they dont work on your player because they'll just expire and self destruct like a lemming anyways.
Feel screwed, much ?]]>Jul 10th 2007 3:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/Jul 9th 2007 2:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/
What I did not find on their website: If I signed up for their service and I loaded a shitload of tracks for 15/month and then cancelled the service, do I still have the (DRMed) MP3s? Or better yet, can I somehow convert them to the real deal (just MP3)? Anyone have any experience with Rhapsody?]]>Jul 9th 2007 3:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/Jul 9th 2007 3:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/
But this time it only plays movies and music.

It's not even Touchscreen! Nor is it supposed to be a competitor to the iPhone...
Hell, the First Generation Clix has been out since something like ...2 or 3 years ago.

I hate people that look at a DAP device and if it's a screen with a Black/White edge, and automatically say "Its a Apple Rip-off"]]>Jul 9th 2007 7:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/Jul 9th 2007 10:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/Jul 10th 2007 2:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/09/iriver-and-real-team-up-for-clix-rhapsody/Jul 11th 2007 12:47AM
