I went to Argos this afternoon and the £7.97 player does not play MP3. The £14.97 one does but has no return so each time you turn the player off it goes back to the beginning of the disc. I have this problem with a much dearer machine and it is so irritating. Consequently I didn't buy either machine and will trawl the net to see if I can find what I'm looking for at a similar affordable price.
