I disagree completely with that advice. The v2beta s/w is WAY faster for loading tunes onto the player, and is ALL that I have used on 3/4 players here. No issues.

The fourth (4/4) player I have was populated with tunes using 1.03. When I later upgraded it to v2beta, it reported all sorts of database errors and got very confused. So I nuked it (disk builder), and redid everything from the beginning, except using v2beta software instead.

Works great. Highly recommended, provided one also installs Hijack before downloading tunes (to fix the Jiffies bug).
