We bought this for our 19 year old daughter who decided she wanted to buy a few albums.  It was perfect for her as it wasn't too much money and she doesn't listen to them very often.  Four stars is only because the sound is good but not great.  Case is cute, but I don't know that I would trust it to be carried by the handle.  Price was really good compared to other sites and stores.  We haven't tried downloading album songs to the computer so can't say how well that works but if it does, it's a nice feature to have.
