The sound quality is CD grade. I would say though that I wish there was more control over it in that having to create 5 playlists is a bit of a pain. If I want to listen to a particular album or artist, I can't do it directly. I wind up usually just leaving it on Playlist 6 (CD 6) which plays the entire iPod's library. I would also like ID3 tags. Oh well. It was the best solution at the time and it works well even given the limitations.
