The Sansa e200R Rhapsody  is made to use every aspect of Rhapsody.  Drag and drop tracks and albums from the Music Guide, playlists from Playlist Central, and even Rhapsody Channels to your player. With the appropriate membership, it's all yours to transfer and take with you, for no additional charge.*

Your  Sansa e200R Rhapsody comes pre-loaded with a variety of playlists and Channels for you to try. If you like the songs, you can choose to add them to your device library and even purchase them. Don't like a track? Give it the ban rating ( ) and you'll never hear it again. When you connect your device to your computer while you're signed in to your Rhapsody account, the tracks in your Rhapsody Channels will be refreshed, your ratings will transfer to My Library, and anything you want to purchase will be added to your Purchase Bin ( ) in the Sources area.

Every Rhapsody track you add to your player comes with the album art and Music Info that you see in the Music Info area of the Rhapsody Player Controls. Access this and other information by pressing the Select button (the large round button in the middle of the thumbwheel) on your player while the track is playing.

The Sansa e200R Rhapsody  lets you know when you need to reconnect to Rhapsody to refresh your licenses for the downloaded tracks you've transferred. Look for the colored dot beside the battery indicator at the bottom of your player's screen. You can also see your full subscription status information anytime by selecting Settings > Account on your device.

*Not all the music on Rhapsody is available for download and transfer. Some tracks may need to be purchased before they can be transferred.

A Sansa e200R Rhapsody comes with a variety of Rhapsody Channels and playlists, ready to play out of the box. Every time you connect your device to your computer while signed in to your Rhapsody account, your old Channel tracks are replaced with new ones.

The pre-loaded tracks take up space on your player just like other tracks. You can use Rhapsody to delete any Channels you don't like, or add more tracks to your device.

All of these tracks are "subscription" tracks--you must renew the track licenses for them at least once in any 30-day period. To renew track licenses, just connect your device to your Rhapsody account. If you do not connect your device to your account at least once per 30-day period, the tracks will eventually expire. (Expired track listings appear gray in color on your device. Expired tracks will not play until their licenses are renewed.)

When you transfer a Rhapsody Channel to your Sansa e200R Rhapsody, you are transferring over three hours of music from that Channel's normal song list. Channels on your device play just like they do on Rhapsody - you can skip forward, but not back. Like the song you're hearing? You can add it to your device library or On the Go List, or even add it to your Purchase Bin ( ) in the Rhapsody Sources area.

Tip: You can add a song to your device library, purchase, or rate with just one button push. On your player, go to Settings>Press and Hold to choose what happens when you press and hold the Select button.

 Every time you connect to Rhapsody, you get a fresh selection of tracks for each Channel, programmed by our talented editors. You can add any Rhapsody Channel to your device, including Artist Channels, Custom Channels, and My Rhapsody Channel.

You cannot add live, streaming radio stations to your Sansa e200R Rhapsody.

Note: See your Rhapsody e200R documentation for more information about your device, the device library, and the On the Go list.

Absolutely. It's simple to delete Channels from your player:

1. Connect your player to your computer while you are signed in to your Rhapsody account.
2. Click your player name in the Sources area to view its contents in the Display area.
3. Click the Rhapsody Channels tab in the Display area.
4. Select any Channel you wish to delete.
5. Press [DELETE] on your keyboard.

Your Sansa e200R Rhapsody will warn you when your subscription tracks(downloaded Rhapsody tracks that have been transferred to a portable player or device) (including Rhapsody Channels and Dynamic playlists) need to be renewed. (To renew your subscription tracks, simply connect your player to your computer while you are signed in to your Rhapsody account.)

There are two places on your player to check your subscription track status:

• The status bar at the bottom of your player display.

A green dot will appear next to your battery icon after you have renewed your subscription tracks. If you do not connect your player to your Rhapsody account during the next thirty days, the dot will gradually change from green to red. When the dot is entirely red, your subscription tracks have expired, and you must connect your device or you will not be able to play them.

 

 

 

 

• The Account screen in your player's Settings menu.

Select Settings>Account on your player to view the Account screen.

The Rhapsody Account screen will display:

• The date you last renewed
• The date your subscription tracks are due to expire
• How many days you have left before you must reconnect your device to your Rhapsody account

Note: See your Rhapsody e200R documentation for more information about your device menus.
