If your battery dies, so does your music. That's why Sony developed the NW-HD1 Hard Drive Digital Music Player. It features up to 30 hours playback with built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery2. The other guys give you 12 hours, and that's not cool. But what about capacity? The NW-HD1 can store up to 13,000 tracks4 at 48kbps when using Sony's ATRAC3plus™ audio format. Plus, it fits comfortably into the palm of your hand, and is easily carried in a pocket or purse. It comes with a USB cradle for PC connection and recharging, and includes accessories like headphones, carrying pouch and AC power adaptor.
