It costs $150 because it's worth it.  It's a serious recorder with a great
sound, and capable of 90, 120, and 180 degree separation for L-R recording.
Heck, you can even record quad if you want.

I'm using it a lot for my podcasts now.  I even use it as my "desk" mike for
voiceovers/intros/outros, because it'll go "live" over the USB link and look
like a mike to the OS.

However, the default setting is trivial, and works.  Flip it on, hit the
record button twice.  Hit the stop button when you're done.
