Not sure what to get but I'm thinking of going with a Zune. But then some people tell me Zune sucks, but then again, they're iFags. Creative makes good mp3 players too, right?

I bought a creative mp3 in januery and it sucked balls. iPod is solid, go with that.

The iPod is solid, and nothing beats apple care .

iPod. anyone who says "oh fuck the iPod" is on some anti-for-the-sake-of-being-anti shit and has probably never used one.

I've had other types of DAPs and the iPod is the fucking best. Creative Zen Video is probably the second best.

Ipods are nice but they don't have a Halo 3 edition MP3 player do they?!?!?

Didn't think so.

i would dearly love to express how i feel about the ZUNE but instead i implore each and every one of you to purchase Microsoft Vista (tm) Ultimate Edition (tm), the Operating System from the Future Now

FlameOfCallandor · « **Reply #8 on:** July 31, 2007, 01:38:48 PM »

If you bought a Zune, you will be one of only 10 people since launch to own one.

bullshit

I've used them before

BUT

I don't like how it has to sync with iTunes everytime I hook it up to my pc

I don't want some shitty aac files cluttering up my music

Creative lets me use mp3s with drag and drop and plays divx/xvid videos without converting.

Even my old Creative player was better because you could replace the battery yourself!

What's the name of mp3 player you posted and how much does it cost?

Himu · « **Reply #14 on:** July 31, 2007, 06:07:19 PM »

Is 8 gigs really enough? I am liking what I am reading about the Zen but 8 gigs is the highest it goes?

edit: nevermind. There's so many models I got confused. Found a 60 gig.

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #15 on:** July 31, 2007, 06:21:56 PM »

Yeah, get a Creative Zen Himumu DRAG AND DROP FTW

Himu · « **Reply #16 on:** July 31, 2007, 06:23:47 PM »

Zen Vision:M

Glescoes · « **Reply #17 on:** July 31, 2007, 06:24:04 PM »

Creative Zen Vision:M is the one pictured above.

I have it, it is perfection.

Himu · « **Reply #18 on:** July 31, 2007, 06:31:25 PM »

I'd like an mp3 player before I leave for Florida. I am looking at the prices. I don't want to spend more than 150 on a player.

Amazon lists the Zen Vision:M 30 GB for $194.88. That's not so bad.

Like wise, for around the same price, I can get....a 4gb ipod! Yay, 4gigs!

exactly

I bought my 30 gig for $270 last summer and my 60 gig for $290 last winter
(yeah I have 2)

I have so much music and movies I watch on the go that 1 couldn't hold them all.

If you pi-rat movies, you don't need to convert them either.

the only thing I hate is that you have to have the adapter to charge your player.

it doesn't. turn it off when you connect it.

neither of these things I can argue with. I hate the conversion process to get shit to QT on the iPod. but I do like being able to send that shit to a TV via video out - can the Creative do that?

Himu · « **Reply #21 on:** July 31, 2007, 11:13:27 PM »

Yeah you can put video on the tv.
