If so, how is the sound quality? Does the slim have improved sound?

Well I use mine quite a bit at the gym. I don't know if the sound is better on the the slim as I never owned a fat one. It might be the cheap ear buds I bought but the sound is a little quite sometimes. Other than that I think it's great.

I find that there are both the same, but i also think that the headphones you buy makes the difference

If you use it as a mp3 player make sure that you have a good set of buds.

Like what the others said, the earphones make a whole lot of difference. With a really good pair of earphones, the PSP is a great MP3 player, albeit larger one as compared to most MP3 players.

I use my PSP for an MP3 player with a 4gb memory stick. Its plenty of music, but the volume doesn't hit very loud. I have some base boost headphones though, and they really do add a lot of volume, making the volume actually too loud. Get a great pair of headphones and you'll be fine.

I used to use it for music, but I found it was a bit unwieldy to carry around while travelling. Unless I'm watching a movie.

Since I've owned my PSP(last august) I've only played it at home.... and i'm barely home, I been using it for a MP3 player since the day i got it... I loved my PSP pouch and would just put it in my front jeans pocket and only take it out to switch songs, then i found out about how you can create folders and put songs into groups. Now that good games are coming out and more people I know are getting PSP's i'm using it as a gaming system again, but i still love my PSP for it's music/video capabilities.

Well, I use it as an mp3 player. If you have some good, loud headphones you can really enjoy your music and although the psp is a bit too fat to move (I haven't got the slim one) I like it cause you have that peripheral to put on and change songs, turn the volume up or down and pause/play. It's a really nice feat.

It just depends on your headphones. I have really nice sound-cancelling ones that I got at Hastings for $15. I use it at school all the time and if you have a big enough memory stick and nice headphones it works as a great mp3 player and a sweet gaming machine when you get bored of the music. :)

yeah i use it as an mp3 player. i got the older version but the sound quality is great, then again it depends on the headset. the one's the camewith it are great.

as for the the slim one, on the other hand, doesn't include anything like that.i assume the quality is the same, but you're gonna have to choose between the 2000 headsets from sony or other ones.

I also used it as a MP3 player it worked fine...it wasnt as good as an ipod. I stopped using it as an MP3 player on August 12th becaus i got my Ipod video for my birthday. If you are just planning on using it as an MP3 player get an Ipod Video it does videos and flash games. I reccomend you use your psp for all its uses not just music because thats kind of pointless but back to the topic it works well as an MP3 player just a bbit big to carry.
