General Comments

The Packard Bell OP10 MP3 CD Stereo is okay for kitchen listening and the MP3 function is useful because I record a lot of radio programes in that format, however, it claims to play WMA discs but would not play my WMA disc of "Feet of Clay" by Terry Pratchett.

I've since got a much better one from Maplins for £29 with tape & headphone socket. Check that one instead.

Can't comment on battery life.
