OK, but better Enya available
on September 24, 2007
Posted by: dargmarq

This is my least favorite album from Enya. The songs definitely have her signature presence, but the compilation sounds a little monotonous. I cannot tell you what is my favorite track because there is nothing on this CD that drives me to listen to it repeatedly. That being said, it still appears on my MP3 player. Not recommended because there are better albums from her on which to spend your hard-earned money. 2 stars

Lots for your $$$, and good music

This is one of my favorite music purchases. And it is a great bargain. Check the price yourself and realize that you get a CD and a DVD in a great package. It also contains a booklet with lyrics and interesting pictures. The song selection captures the essence of Creed. Favorite tracks are One, My Sacrifice, and With Arms Wide Open. The other tracks do not disappoint. This was my first download into my MP3. A great gift to give any fan of Creed. Highly recommended. 5 stars.

Reliable quality
on September 21, 2007
Posted by: dargmarq

I have never had a problem with these discs. Never made a coaster (or hover craft from my son's science kit). I have used generic ones at work, and about 15% of the time I have a problem. The Verbatims perform well, burn fast, and play reliably in other DVD drives and DVD players. These match well to my external Sony burner (830u). And the +R configuration is better than the -R because of its re-writing capability (but only write once) and improved error handling. I have no complaints, but I will not give 5 stars because I have not yet had a chance to evaluate long term reliability with these. Wait for these to go on sale (under fifteen) and stock up. Highly recommended. 4.25 stars.

OK. Better than reputation.
on September 20, 2007
Posted by: dargmarq

These are OK headphones. One plus is the matching color to iPods. Another plus is the cord has plenty of length. However, there is no noise isolation and the bass does sound a little muddy at times. They also have a tendency to fall out during exercising. If these were being compared to other ear buds supplied with MP3 players, they would be one of the best in that category. Unfortunately, they are grouped into the 'supplied by MP3 manufacturer' category which has a bad reputation. I use these as my spare set when I cannot immediately find my good Fontopias. I do not recommend buying these because they are pricey for their quality. For a little more (or similar) amount of money, one can get very good headphones with reasonable noise isolation and clear bass. 2.5 stars.

Collins better recorded than live
on September 18, 2007
Posted by: dargmarq
from St. Louis, MO
I grew up as a Phil Collins fan through HS, but I do not care for this album. The music quality is not clear and sounds muddy throughout the CD. The audience distractions (e.g. applause) are too frequent and too long to enjoy this album. The song selection is OK. If you're a fan, stick with his recorded & editted albums. Not recommeded. 1.25 stars.

Enjoyable, heart pounding.
on September 16, 2007
Posted by: dargmarq
from St. Louis, MO
This is an excellent compilation of Def Leppard favorites. Given the price and number of tracks (15) you get, this is a great value. A few of my family and friends have this, and they are extremely pleased with it. Makes an excellent gift to those who grew up in this time period. Listening to 'Photograph' and 'Love Bites' always brings back high school memories. Interior sleeve has a couple pics and a listing of previous albums (if you want to pursue a collection), but not a big deal. Buy this for the CD, and Enjoy! Highly recommended. 5 stars.

Immersive, relaxing music
on September 14, 2007
Posted by: dargmarq
from St. Louis, MO
This is one of Enya's first albums, but probably her best overall. Orinoco flow is her most popular song. The remaining songs are unmistakably Enya, but there is enough variety in the tempo and instruments to avoid being monotonous. Storms in Africa I & II are among my favorite tracks. Pop this in your player if relaxation is sought. Also, I recommend increased weighting on the bass and overall volume -- better to create an 'immersive' experience. This music is not for anybody ALL the time, but I would argue that this music style can be enjoyed by almost everyone at least some of the time.

Good, Solid Cell Phone
on September 9, 2007
Posted by: dargmarq
from St. Louis, MO
The c139 is a good phone without any extra features that make most of today's cell phones overly complicated. For the most part, this product functions as ONLY a phone and does a great job of it. Sound quality and coverage area (AT&T) are great. The c139 is also sturdy, as I have dropped it a few times from waist height to concrete and it still functions 100%. My only complaint about this phone is the slow boot-up time of the software. It takes about 70-80 seconds for the phone to be ready to use when first tuning it on, but I must point out that I routinely turn off my phone (I think most people do not). The prepaid plan fits my calling needs perfectly, and it is the cheapest way to own a cell phone. No surprise fees, and you can easily monitor and recharge your account on the internet.
