Great idea with one minor flaw.

Pros: "Love a Recording" feature. Ability to find and record amazing music daily!
Cons: Satellite headphones, doesn't support MACs.
The Bottom Line:
Buy this product if you have or intend to subscribe to Sirius.
Would be a "5" star product if it wasn't for the antenna headphones.
If you are not already a subscriber to Sirius radio than this product is not for you! It's use as an mp3 player alone does not justify the purchase of this product.
BUT
If you are already a Sirius radio subscriber or intend to be - this product is a MUST HAVE.

The Stiletto 2 allows you to listen to Sirius radio while on the move. You can even plug into wi-fi networks and grab their internet feeds. The one major flaw I have encountered while engaging Sirius' satellite network is that 99% of the time you must be wearing their included Altec Lansing headphones (which double as an antenna.) The headphones are "OK" but I personally prefer to have the option of using my own phones, which you can do, but then you basically kill your "antenna" and your satellite feed is unreliable/never works.

Enough about the bad - what makes this product an incredible buy and a MUST for music lovers is the "Love a Recording" feature. There's a button on the front of the unit with a heart on it - this is your "Love a Recording" button - gateway to a land of musical freedom.
So you're listening to your favorite Sirius radio channel and all of a sudden this stellar track comes on. Maybe you know it - maybe you don't. REGARDLESS, you quickly hit the "Love a Recording" heart button and it records the entire track, regardless if you tuned in half way through; You still get the ENTIRE track saved to your library (aka hard drive.)
THEN, you head home. Maybe you live in your parents basement and don't have a Sirius satellite signal...
Irrelevant! You scroll to your library and BAM - there's all the music you "love" available for your listening pleasure, 24/7, full length, for as long as you'd like.
WOW.
