Wide Format Support
SPINN has you covered on the audio and video front for quite a few formats. It supports several popular audio formats: MP3, ASF, WMA, APE, OGG, and FLAC. You can dial in the sound to your liking using a 7-band custom EQ.

As for video, you can enjoy Xvid SP, MPEG-4 SP, and WMV9 SP formats. Convert your collection and take it with you wherever you might go.

The SPINN also allows you to share your favorite JPG, BMP, PNG, and GIF photos, individually or in a slideshow. You can view text files for on-the-go reading.

3 out of 5 stars good, but not very good   March 6, 2010
Xifeng Su
some type of music listed , which I cannot play, like ape and flac files.


5 out of 5 stars Overall a good player   February 18, 2010
Rajesh Kumar (Torrance, CA USA)
First of all I must say that the looks itself will make you buy this item. The Spinn feature is really attractive and easy to use for navigation and selection. Touchscreen is not that intuitive but works well. FM recording is also a good feature to look at. The sound quality is great. The video quality on 3.3 inch OLED screen is awesome. It is very light and portable. Overall a good player under $100.


2 out of 5 stars Poor customer support   September 1, 2009

This is a nice product with decent features, good sound, etc. However, ours is defective and iriver has refused to fix it.

When the battery on the SPINN runs dow, the date resets to sometime in 2005. Not a huge problem in and of itself, but it has the side effect of confusing Rhapsody, so that none of the licensed content will play. It was very difficult to figure out how to fix this problem: relicensing certainly didnt help. nor did formatting from windows or Rhapsody. iriver support happily blamed Rhapsody for this problem and was no help. Eventually I figured out how to use the SPINN reformat capability (which I found is a VERY unintuitive place) to format the drive. A couple hours later, after all the songs were reloaded, we were good to go - for a few days, when it happened again.

I contacted iriver, who admitted that this was not normal operation, but explained that if I charged it enough I could live with it. I asked to have the SPINN repaired, and after verifying that I was under warrantee, they sent me an RMA. I mailed the SPINN in, waited two weeks, and got it back with a note that they had changed the settings to change the discharge rate! When the battery dies - and it has - I still need to reformat the SPINN.

Two weeks later, iriver has yet to answer any of three emails I have sent them asking them to honor their warrantee.

Stay away!!!



2 out of 5 stars Problem...   June 14, 2009

Ok. So my mom has one and we always have a problem with this. Every time the battery dies out or is completely drained it will not turn back on. Like we tried charging it and everything, but it doesn't even recognize the charger or whatsoever. It just will not work once the battery is completely drained. This is not the first time either,we've sent it twice to the manufacturer because of this problem and today it happened again. Although my mom should just charge more often instead of letting it die like that. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. Plus i don't like their service either, they take forever and asked us the same question over and over again. I don't know if this has happened to others, but it has happened to us many times..


4 out of 5 stars Very Good MP3 Player   June 2, 2009
This is a great mp3 player. It has many different options and functions that the user can tailor to their needs. Extremely flexible. Supports many different types of files. One complaint is that the iriver software is a bit slow and funky, but it's certainly better than iTunes. The touch screen works well. If I were to nit-pick, I'd say that playing music/video while using a bluetooth headset makes the interface a bit slow and sluggish, but it's certainly not anything to really complain about. Great overall product and way better than anything comparative from iPod.
