I have just found out why i cannot use my sonicstage software to change music etc on my mp3 player, as Sony in their wisdom have binned it, as they cannot make it compatable with windows 7 and 8? So what was a good purchase and an expensive one at the time is now well lets say fit for the bin! All i can say to Sony is I am not buying another Sony product out of pure spite, as you obviously don't care about customers who have your products as long as you can update new products and to dam with anyone who has an older device!! I was looking for a new one for the car and it won't be Sony!
