My mate is about to get an mp3-player, and he wants to know
a good one to get, that's easy to use. A choice between
ARCHOS or some GOODMAN machine. Any suggestions? (UK, not
USA)

I think he's going for ARCHOS one, costs about £250 for
20GIGs of mp3 space, a built-in camera, and video watching
capabliities, and a little microphone. Not a bad little
package. Excellent for travelling and recording an audio
journal.

No one mentioned 'Nomad Jukebox Zen'....makes the 'IPod'
look positively bland.
IMO,of course.

However,price and something about the battery expiring after
two years(and non replacable)has delayed my purchase
somewhat.

yeah, i thought the zen's were cool, but they (these aren't
my opinions, only what I've heard) don't sound nowhere near
as good, despite creative's claims about EAX, tend to break
a lot easier, and there was something else too.

there's other offerings out there that have stuff that the
ipod doesn't; thing is, the ipod is a proven product.

I've had enough of my MP3 player. I bought a Rio 800, which
back in the days was the top of the line. It has 128mb.
Damn that's so NOT enough.

So I'm going back to a simple CD player. But a good one,
with a good line-out for my portable amp + Grado headphones.
I personally think they are small enough nowadays.

my mp3 player is junk. maybe they have gotten better since
mine was made, but it only fits like 20-30 songs on the
memory card and the cards are so expensive.

minidisc is the way to go

I?m a minidisc freak myself, mostly because they are rugged
and offers great recording possibilities. The media won?t
crash either - great if you want to save your recordings for
future use...

The best thing with a mp3-player FOR ME is the possibility
of getting a "steady state" player without any moving parts.
You can shake it how much you want! (great for sports and
stuff) The memorycards isn?t that expensive nowadays. But
unfortunatly there isn?t any mp3 flash-based player around
that are made of aluminium and has that "air of quality"
around it that the topnotch sony minidisc has...
