MP3 Players
Hey...

With Christmas being today, the money from relatives rolled in for me.

I've decided on one thing to do with some of the money: buy an MP3 player. I only have 2 gigs of music right now (all legal, of course ), and I didn't want to spend over $150.

You have a lot of options these days. You should look at the features and determine what best works for how you plan to use it. I have an iRiver 40GB player (> $150) that lets me organize my songs as files in folders so I built my own navigation system. All I use are ripped CDs I own also, so I don't really care about iTune or Napster or WalTunes or whatever connectivity. But some users need that sort of download and go. Different players for different folks. I don't know what iRiver is making these days (my player is 2 years old by now I think) but I've been pleased. Could be louder.

Thanks for your suggestion. I was leaning toward iRiver, actually.

I'm not a big music service user... I don't at all...

I was looking at Dell's Pocket DJ. I like it for the most part, except no stop button... -_- Who makes a MP3 player without a stop button, madness I tell you...

I think the most stylish players are made by MPIO. I think I could go for a FY500.

I don't think it's a good idea to get players with rechargeable power supplies, otherwise it wont last long if you take it on holiday with you. But ordinary AA or AAA batteries are available anywhere.
