I really want an mp3 player, but I dunno which one to get. I was looking on argos.co.uk, and I saw a half price mp3 player, and it's £109.99p, and it has 20GB. I dunno whether it's meant to say 2GB, but if it's 20GB, it's good for its money, but it's so ugly. Heres the link - http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10001&langId=-1&catalogId=3801&productId=174874&clickfrom=name

I got a creative zen micro. MP3.com said that its the best MP3 player out now, and I agree. There are a bunch of different amounts it can hold, highest being 5000, and no one needs more than that anyway.

Info Here (http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=213&subcategory=214&product=10795)

Basicly, it is the the same price as an Ipod, so there you go. It gets a lot. Like FM radio, and you can record it, you can shuffle playlists, which I hear you cant do on a lot of em. Its a really good size.
Oh and it has a DJ mode. You can shuffle:
Album of the day
Barely heared
Most Popular
playlists
artists
genres

It lights up really well, you kinda have to see it in real life, and youll see, its really cool. It has like neon lights that light up all along the side.

It doesnt have buttons, it has touch. And to turn up volume, and scroll through songs, you slide your thumb down and up on a pad. It takes about an hour to charge it up half way, and 6 to charge it all the way. So if you just need a little bit to get through the day, you just put it in for a little while, and you'll be set for a few hours.

Anyway, check it out.

Yeah, my Zen touch is great..i put all my music on it and i still have lots more room :D

Better value for money than the zen micro. When i checked it was only £15 more for 15gb more space.

I saw that too, but im not sure if it has a few features, it looked a bit big, and I dont need all that space. To be honest, I can fill it to 15000 songs, I just dont see me listening to all of them.

You have access to 15,000 songs? ;o Nice.

The creative zen touch is slightly cheaper than the iPod but it also has a longer battery life; 24hrs. Compared to the measly 12hrs of an average iPod. That's what attracted me. Who cares if it's 1 cm broader or 2g's heavier? It has all the features an iPod has I think.

No, I thought the new touch had 15000. Mine had 1500, which is plenty for me. Could have gotten more, but I dont think I would use it.

I dont think I pods are bad, but I think the zen micro is better. Has all the features (except games which I wouldnt play anyway), and a few more. The one thing I couldnt believe about I pods, was that you could only shuffle through all tracks. On the micro, you can shuffle playlists, albums, genres, played a lot, not played much ect. Plus its smaller and cheaper. I thought why not? I dont really hate I pods and shut everyone who has one down, I just think mine is a little better, and everyone thinks im a rebel for having something different :P They would probably be more popular than I pods if they had their own commercials.
