The comment that "the media share feature requires an annual subscription" is not correct. Media sharing either across DLNA compliant devices, uploading to Facebook accounts or creating albums and sharing files with friends etc. comes standard when you buy the product.

After further investigation this entry has been updated.

Thank you for the comment, we like to try and stay as accurate and impartial as is possible. Comments always prompt us to further investigate and correct specific issues submitted by users.

 

It would be helpful to myself and other consumers if you registered with a "verbatim.com" email address to verify your account and select an appropriate username reflecting you company affiliation.

If you wish to send other info that would be helpful to myself and other consumers (firmware updates, fixes etc) you can e-mail me directly via the contact form.

The above statement claims "Media sharing either across DLNA compliant devices", is true for the first month (aprox). I Purchased this devise and loaded media into it but after about a month (aprox), my PS3 devices did not find the media share server any longer. I contacted Verbatim about the issue but did not get any answers. It has been 2 months and still no answer by the Verbatim support team.

Note: This comment is being left by a disappointed consumer.

Which formats does this play? I have yet to find ANY info on this subject. To me this is probably the most important pre-purchase question.
