The big downside of any sony player I ever looked at was it always had to convert my mp3's into some other format to work on the players. This took forever and was a hassle.

Exactly. Beyond even the file format issues, when will Sony finally stop using MemoryStick media.

All Sony players have been playing MP3 since about an year. Their earliest players used a proprietary format. Actually, their current players are really good (particularly in sound quality) though they use a terrible naming scheme for their models.
