I've always wanted an iPod or an iPod mini (in silver, of course). Having said that, the iriver looks pretty good, too. In any event, I may have to encode songs using the usual MP3 format instead of Apple Lossless (I have iTunes on my PC)

iriver often makes good and awesome mp3.wethter you like the colorful screen,you can opt some moderate cost series not very high.umm,iriver do not care for the storage pity as a shortcoming thought.

I have always used and I will always use Winamp... In my opinion any other can compares with it... I know winamp is kind heavy right now but it used to be very light and it's features are cool... I'm used to it, so I don't intend to change it, at least for a long time. I just use it to play so for me there is no difference... Why would I install a new one if I would have to learn a few things that I use...

wth... i was going to say the iPod but when i saw that post of the super video-cam/mp3 i was like

how does it cost...

well by pricesm i think each one that has like 40 gb of space cost around $300-$400 dlls leaving behind the marks and those marketing things. i got one of 64 mb and it cost me $60 dlls

i have the black and white u2 ipod, im in love with it. but ipods are over hyped in my opinion, the iriver is pretty good too.

I am the owner of an 3rd-gen iPod and am very pleased with it. Although I do agree with demongaara that iPods are slightly over-hyped, I do believe that they are one of the best out there. If you were to get an iPod, I would recommend getting the 30gb iPod Photo for $349.99. The iPod mini is okay, but it's slightly over-priced for the amount of storage that you get on it.

I unfortunately do not have an MP3 player, but I have heard from alot of people that the Ipod is the way to go.

iPods don't every week. They only slow down while your in -degrees weather and thats just that the clickwheel slows down.

For a long time, I thought that the ipod was the best. However, once my friends kept telling me not to get one because it froze about once a week, I was stumped. I didn't know which one I should get. I'm thinking of getting an iRiver or a Samsung yepp with, obviously, high capacities, like 20 -40 gigs. I was, on the other hand, considering getting a Hi-Md minidisc, but i never really got around to it. When i finally decided to get one the store discontinued the model i wanted and now i'm stuck without music.

I stayed away from the Ipods and I rivers and all of that garbage. I went with a plain Samsung. The samsung is very very small ita about the size of a triple A battery. Mine has 1 GB on it and holds an amazing amount of songs. It fits in my pocket really well and holds all of the songs i need. And on the bright side i didnt spend 500 on a crappy ipod. I spent 200 on a quality player. The Samsung also has nice sound features where you can set exactly how you want to hear your music. The only bad thing is that it eats through batteries fairly quickly, but as long as you get some rechargable batteries your are fine. I strongly recommend the samsung.
