I would want something that fits in my pocket that has a good 10-20 gig on Mp3s on hand.

There's a 10gig Mp3 player for $200 thAt I want. I'd already own one but they still seem to eat a lot more battery power than A MD does...

I have an old portable Sony MZR55 Minidisc recorder and I'm quite happy with it. Sound quality is very good (definitely better than the best mp3s), and I sometimes use it also to record concerts with. (though you need an extra microphone for that)
The worst bit about buying a MD is in the beginning when you only have a couple of discs to play.

I've got a Phillips MP3CDplayer... suited my pocket as I couldn't afford a HD one that had all the features I wanted and the Flash Mem MP3 players are just too limited memory-size wise....
This way I fit around 150 hi-quality MP3s on each disc...I geenrally create one new a week which contains everything I'm likely to listen to over the next week....
Cool to be able to play normal CDs as well...
I'll prob stick with this for another year and then hopefully pukka HD ones like the Ipod etc will be a lot cheaper/mass market...

I was tempted to get a gypo £50 MP3 CD player rather than a HD one, I'm still waiting for the 10/20Gb models to come down a bit before I decide on a HD/CD one.

The only downside with CDMP3 Players is the size, I guess...but I don't find it a problem as it sits pretty happily in my jacket pocket or shoulder bag....
Probably worth spending a little more than £50 tho...think you can get decent ones (Sony, Philips) for just a little bit more; it's little details like Anti-Skipping that gets skimped on with the cheaper models...
I reckon by this time next year, you should be able to get a 10gig HD player for around £130-£150...prices seem to be headed that way....

"I reckon by this time next year, you should be able to get a
10gig HD player for around £130-£150...prices seem to be headed that way.... " That's what I'm waiting for- and one that has the option of a car stereo conversion kit so I can plug the line out into the stereo.

I've got a good old fashioned Sony Discman.
I don't need 40 gigs of songs with me when I'm on the run! One CD-R is more than enough... I'm about to start the perilous walk to work, and I'm taking ''Do You Know Squarepusher?'' with me.

I work at an ambulance facility, I have to make sure all the drugs and supplies and everything are all intact, sometimes wash them, etc... just keep them up to snuff. It's a great summer job...
But it's a JOB... so it sucks. I feel defeated, like some stupid cog in this 9-5 world. Ugh. Kill me. But now I gotta run, kill me later.

Ahh, hairytongue.com ... I've contributed twice to that site :)
I like the fake PSP jamie oliver menu; gaussian malarky, add fake friends, sell soul to supermarket etc.
There's even a CTD parody on it...
