It's nice to be able to get everything from one source
and not need jump to several different web sites

creative zen:m

ipod is for communists
zune sucks

you can use itunes with creative. with ipod you have to use itunes, also cant use napster...
check out consumers reports.com creative is top, then ipod. mostly because it is more versitle and better screen resolution

I'm not saying Ipods don't have a downside list,
but the list isn't as long as most people think

I recommend pods, they grow really fast and the smaller fish love them, I have never see any of the zune in any of my tanks,




Never heard of the ZUNE, kids love the ipods

In case you are still looking.....I agree with the Sansa. Can expand memory through microSD cards and plays just about every file out there. I actually have an episode of Seinfield and about 350 songs on my 4gb model and still have plenty of room.

Plays FM radio too

Neither also

I just got a cool radio for my truck that will take usb input. I got a 4gb flash driver for $35 and can hold tons of songs more then i know i am sure.Then i can plug it into my radio and play it while driving. Then i have a MP3 player that takes usb thumb flash drives so i can plug it into there and listen to music on the go.
Also can put documents for work and school on this drive and still have my music.

Another vote for the sansa, by sandisk. Picked up a Sansa View 8gb for my daughter, and it cost the same as a 4gb ipod.... very versatile, shows up as a drive in windows (drag & drop)..... simple interface, and a larger screen..... oh, also, as mentioned above.... upgradeable with a memory card insert.....!

If I didn't carry tunes with me on my Sony Ericsson phone, I'd get one of these for myself also.........
