If you're looking for a well built CD player that plays MP3's and has a AM/FM radio in it, look no further than Sony's D-NF400. This player is well built, has a radio that isn't deaf and isn't made in China. This little gem can be had at my local Wal-Mart for $68. I bought mine at Amazon for $76 shipped before I realized I could've bought it cheaper. The player also receives audio from TV channels 2-13 and NOAA weather radio. My experience has been that it doesn't hear very well on those two bands, but that could be because I live in a fringe area that's quite hilly and unfavorable to radio signals in general. In a highly populated area, I think you'd have no problems picking up stations.
I find that the MP3's I play on this unit sound identical to CD's. There are a number of DSP audio presets to choose from, or you can customize the frequency response with a primitive equalizer built into the dot-matrix display. One feature that I love is the sleep timer, since I love listening to music in the quiet of night. There are many other cool little tricks the player will do. Consult the manual for more details about this marvel of modern audio technology.
