i have a 20 gb 4th Gen. It's nice and all that, but the battery time sucks. who the hell listens to 15 hours of music straight without changing song?? 8-10 hours is about right.

yea i had a 60gb creative zen and it broke (the bloody headphones socket problem), fixed it repeatedly until i fucked up the motherboard by putting too much solder on.
these things, like mobile phones, seem to be a perfect example of throw-away culture.. they're manufactured to be disposable items, even though they're so fucking expensive. it's a cunt.

I really dislike the £35 headphones that come with it, they're really bad and break too easily. For someone who listens to music at the loudest volume they break too often and the volume on ipods is too low anyway.
I don't like the wheel on the front either, it's not easy to use. Whatever was wrong with just buttons? :S

the battery in my ipod died in less than a year and it never came close to those 15 hours. it was more like 5 hours tops (and that with me not skipping tracks that often).
i've been thinking about getting a new battery. it's kinda hard getting by with out a portable player if you've had one for long.

is there no way to fix a headphones socket problem?
I have a similar thing wrong with my discman, if I turn the headphone plus around at all whilst its plugged in the sound changes and I hear different layers of sound...its really weird and I've kept it because it's interesting when listening to some music and finding backing beats that you could never hear clearly before. Also it works great as a karaoke player however the problem if that as soon as I move around with it the layers change so much its impossible to listen to it. Keep it still on an office desk and its ok though.
I might by a Zen micro

Yes, there is. Do a google search for "Zen headphone problem" or "Creative Zen solder headphone" or something.
I asked on a creative mp3 player forum and they sent me to a page with full hi-res pictures taking you through the process. I ended up fucking up my mp3 player the third time i fixed it though.
However, the new zens don't suffer from this problem, so it's unneccessary.

Sorry man -
I thought you were connecting your "is there any way to fix the headphones problem" to your considering buying a zen micro.
It is exactly the same problem. you may as well see if you can get your discman open (since it's already fucked) and try re-soldering the connections for the socket...

hmm it's a good idea but for the effort and trouble I'd have to go to to open it all, solder it and fix it again it's probably cheaper to just buy a new one - you can find discmans/men ? for budget prices now.
I'm just in two minds as to whether I will get a replacement or upgrade to an mp3 player... it seems like such a waste of all the CDs I've bought and I admit I still like the way you buy a new disc and keep it in your portable CD player for weeks until you rinse it out. I hate to think that by having all my music disposably at my fingertips it might end up devaluating it all :/

I used my gf's ipd at the weekend.
I've used them briefly before and never been impressed- In short, for me, they sum up exactly what I dislike about macs: The users are zealots who are prepared to overlook significant failings and pay over the odds, just because it looks pretty and has a bohemian/alternative attitude pushed by the (admittedly very clever) marketing bods.
However, I didn't hate them until now... I found much to my dismay you couldn't copy tracks from the ipod to a PC using itunes and instead have to use some third party s/w to do it. How bent is that? Ok, if you're billy no mates it's not a problem, but most people share tracks with friends. Yes, I know that's technically piracy, but apple ought to get of their high horse- the ipod's popularity is built on the back of piracy (you reckon most people with full 40gb ones legally own every track?)

I still use my Shockwave tape player. The bass boast kind of drains the batteries but what the hey?
I was thinking of burning some mix cds today though. I`m kind of in 1992 right now sorry.
