The iKEY Plus is a superb and logical upgrade from the original iKEY. It's a very cool, addictive toy you can have a ton of fun with and find many uses for. Once you learn how to operate it, which honestly is not difficult at all, you'll be digging into the closet for those albums and tapes you haven't heard in ages and give them a whole new life as MP3 files without having to buy them all over again as CDs or downloads.
