Rio ce2100 (2.5GB) review
Reviews Sure, it boasts the same stylish design, commendable support for MP3, DRM WMA and Audible files, and stellar battery life. While it supports DRM-protected song downloads from services such as BuyMusic and Napster, however, it doesn't yet work with...

Reviews Music lovers who want the iPod's style but would rather stick to something compatible with Windows Media Player and Windows Media DRM 10 should give some consideration to Philips' GoGear HDD6320 Jukebox, a sexy black portable that offers 30GB of...

Oregon Scientific MP210 (256MB) review
Reviews The unit has a respectable feature set, including an FM tuner, support for DRM-protected WMA files and voice-recording capability, but the display's hit-and-miss legibility and tiny controls are significant drawbacks.

Slim Devices Squeezebox 3 review
Reviews But the inability to stream WMA DRM (PlaysForSure) files is less forgivable, seeing as it's widely available in many competing products, including the Roku SoundBridge. Only the Squeezebox's relatively high price of £200 and its absence of support...

Cowon iAudio U3 (2GB) review
Reviews Plus, it doesn't yet support DRM-protected music, a major shortcoming. However, the key omission here is DRM WMA -- the iAudio U3 won't play songs purchased from online services such as Napster. Fortunately, a forthcoming firmware update (due in...

Transcend T.sonic 610 (1GB) review
Reviews It's a shame that the overall performance was only mediocre and that Transcend overlooked DRM support, a feature we've come to expect in modern MP3 players. Unfortunately, it does not support purchased music with DRM protection.

Archos Gmini XS200 review
Reviews Although it has storage to spare and a few nice amenities, the Gmini delivers only average battery life, a decidedly unsexy design, and a few annoying usability issues: not the least of which is its failure to support DRM-protected WMAs, meaning...

Sonos ZP80 review
Reviews There is, however, one flaw in the Sonos system, and that's the ZP80 and ZP100's inability to play DRM-protected tracks. It's up to you whether you want to blame Sonos for this problem, or the record companies who insist on DRM.

iRiver Clix 2 review
Reviews If you're part of the online music store crowd, you'll be glad to know your favourite DRM'd downloads from Yahoo and Napster, among others, are fully supported by the Clix. The Clix will play MP3, WMA, OGG and WMA DRM-format music.

Oakley Thump 2 (1GB) review
Reviews It works with WMA DRM content but not AAC DRM (that is, songs from the iTunes Music Store). That's because the Thump 2 cleverly builds a flash-based player into the frame of a pair of sunglasses for cordless on-the-go listening.

Creative MuVo Micro N200 (1GB) review
Reviews As is becoming the standard nowadays, the player supports DRM-protected WMAs. Media DRM 10.0 (for subscription-based tunes), but hopefully we'll start seeing this in flash players soon. We understand that a simple MP3 player with no extra...

mobiBLU DAH-1500i (1GB) review
Reviews Drag-and-drop takes care of most transfers, while Windows Media Player -- a standard on all Windows machines -- is necessary for moving DRM-protected files to the device. The player supports MP3 and WMA (including DRM) files, packs in an FM tuner...

Oregon Scientific MP120 (128MB) review
Reviews However, before you start dancing with the fishes, be prepared for awkward controls, a lack of DRM WMA support and poor sound from the included earbuds. FeaturesThe MP120 supports MP3 and WMA files but not DRM WMA -- don't plan on using it to play...
