i know pal, i used to have a hi-md, the only problem is, it's too big, but the battery life was great 72hrs!!

Originally posted by JakeC I have the 1gb version of the tiesto mp3 player (minus the tiesto stuff) and it blows alot of mp3 players out the water.

Same here I have the non-Tiestoed version of the muvo micro n200 1GB player and it makes all 1GB portable mp3 players I know look silly. It's a bit scary that Creative's going this far in trying to attract more people like us to get their product. In all honesty, I purchased their product months ago because I know they're good, not because some DJ has their name on it *especially Tiesto* (sorry don't mean to be a prick to those who do like his music; my personal opinion is that he's now the feared case where a DJ for a genre has gone too mainstream for their and the genre's own good. Look at Darude: he's DJing it up like mad at small/medium clubs and keeps it simple and his music hasn't suffered. Yes, he hasn't produced much lately in terms of releases but heck if it means he takes more time and less arrogance in producing stuff then so be it)

Originally posted by skip i've got an iaudio u2, which isn't exactly a god's gift either, but at least it's better than an ipod! then only thing ipod is better in than its competitors is its looks as apple really does know how to make sexy looking stuff IMO.

I highly doubt it, The Ipod has consistently beaten the competition in regards to sound quality, taking examples of reviews in Which? magazine and What MP3 player magazine, and others such as Stuff etc....face it, what you are against is the popularity of the ipod, no harm going with the crowd if you are buying the best

That's just a skin though, not a complete MP3 player. Never the less it is slightly rediculous.

iriver ftw!

Creative all the way ^_^

all i could say when I saw this was:

"you've got to be fcuking kidding me"

Tiesto such a sellout now adays and to think I used to worship him

Uhm, why exactly is it sad ?

I dont see what can be wrong about being successfull,you people amaze me

Originally posted by pvdclubber well if you check the web, then you will find that the ipod shuffle has some of the best audio characteristics available in a portable mp3-player. plus pvd didn't print his name on the ipod, so he didn't sell out like tiesto, his logo is printed on a skin that can be purchased separately for little money. by the way i've got the Sony_NW_E_407 which i am very happy with, what's your superb player then?

You are a retard, they both did the same thing, only in Tiesto's logo he has his name in it, and you call it selling out, you people will look for the slightest things to bitch about

Grow up

If one day, people hate me as much as they do Tiesto, then Ill know I made it

being this "successful" runs the risk that his music production quality can decrease and it's not so much about the music but more for idolizing the DJ due to the marketing nad less on the music

lol, Just cause he has more money doesnt mean hes gonna stop trying with his producing or DJ sets, its his bred and butter.

People Idolize Sammy and scooter and whoever the fuck else , Britney Spears is cosidered a singer, 50 is a rapper...


Tiesto did nothing but capitalize on his success, you dont see him remixing shit mainstream artists like many others do, he still does what he did 6 years ago, except with more merchandise now

Some of you have a hardon for him because he was # 1 for so long, even now that PvD is # 1 Tiesto will still take more heat becuase hes way bigger then PvD will ever be


Get over it people

Quoted for hilarity...

Does this mp3 player start to trainwreck when you switch tracks?

what do you mean by trainwreck? I had an issue a while back where if i tried to switch tracks the player would shut off. I just did a firmware upgrade and that fixed the problem immediately

i think he was referring to the fact that tiesto keeps trainwrecking in his sets, hence the player should trainwreck

That's the most original joke I've ever heard on these forums.

You're on the right track

..unlike tiesto's mixing... ok sorry that one was an open goal

there's being successful and there's whoring yourself. i think it's kinda sad tiesto can't take the backseat sometimes and be happy with the fans he has instead of increasingly trying to get more mainstream & dominate the whole scene, since he's probably already made for life and can outsell just about any other dj on the planet

You know you're a tech nerd when.... lol thanks for the clarification

tiesto the fragrance would smell like vick's and old spice and sweat, that nasty smell that festers in a club that is way overcrowded.

I have an older 128 MB creative player. It holds about as much music as a cd but in mp3 format. I don't have any complaints about it, I don't need a player with a color screen or programs that organize my collection for me and I'm a broke ass college student who can't afford high end stuff anyway. I listen to it while I'm walking between classes, it holds enough music to keep me entertained for a day then I can go home and switch it out for different stuff sitting on the computer.

Having said that I don't know anybody that would see the tiesto logo as added value and buy this thing, I have a hard time figuring out who would want this besides mp3 collectors who are tiesto fans, and there aren't many of those left anymore, at least in the sections of the internet that I visit I rarely meet them anymore.

If I had the money I would get the neuros 2, it isn't out yet but it looks like a video ipod equivalent except more open to user tinkering and stuff. I collect alot of ameteur music these days and so much of it comes in ogg vorb that I would really like a player that can work with oggs and is not fettered with DRM.
