as much as i love music, i have to be surrounded by it at all times. with that said im looking to buy an mp3 player or whatever music player. i was looking into the Sony HD3- 20gigs and like 30 hrs of battery life. but this thing is old now and i figured something better is out. i despise ipods- measely, what 8hrs of batter life, not to mention how sensitive it is.

anyone have any good options?

i'm into the iriver.

i had been rocking the h320 for awhile...but now i've gone retro and use the h120.


check out ebay, and you can cop an iriver for under $200.


the great thing about it is that it's got a line-in, where you can record from any source. so, if you record mixes from decks or what not, you can convert directly into mp3. it's also got an fm tuner.

30gig ipod? hmm...

has anyone come across the Zune or the Creative?

2nd generation nano is 24 hours battery life..
And its solid state - I take it to the gym.. works awesome..
Looks into Sansa E280 if u r really anti-apple..
Sandisk Sansa are cheaper (Sandisk is the memory maker) and their models are great sounding and have record/FM radio..
Iriver used to be one of the best, but they havent designed anything new and really good for a while..

I wouldnt suggest getting a sansa i had a sansa e260. It was great the first few months. Everyone always complemented me on it. The sound was awesome and the battery life rocked ( Even though i played many tracks in 320kbps ). I bought it in July and by august i started seeing weird problems like tracks whihch i had deleted still appeared in my playlist. Or songs would play and then switch to the middle of a different set. Nothing major but just weird things. i turned on my sansa hoping ot finally listen to TATW 144 only to discover that all my tracks magically dissapeared. I turned it off, and then turned it ack on. WHen i turned it back on it would never go passed the loading screen. its been frozen at that loading screan for a week now !
