Buying an MP3 player

Which one should I buy? I am thinking about an iPod something, but can you guys suggest any better ones?

If I posted this in the wrong section, could a mod please move it? ^.^

 

I have this samsung mp3 that i got for like..150..its 2 gigs but you can compress so it holds just as much as lets say and 8 gig ipod. plus has speakers which for the size of the mp3 player is great. if interested message me and ill find link for it

 

iTouch. 16GB+

Zune is cool and all, but it's thick, and iPod Touch rapes Zune in every single feature.

Hahahaha. Come on man, don't say stuff like that..

 

Just buy an ipod. Problem solved.

 

I don't really need to much space on it, I just need it to have a low price tag and be pretty reliable. ^.^

 

i prefer zune.

80gb

 

You can.. the mp3 itself is 2gig. compressed can hold same as 8gig ipod

 

Well if you don't need much space, try a four gig nano.
I have one, it cost $170 and it was totally worth it.

 

Yeah, iPods are always a safe bet, just get a nano, you won't be disappointed.

 

buy a cheap brand off of ebay for like a quarter of the price, they work just as good, as a matter of fact its more durable.

 

zune if ure friends got a zune so you can send songs around.

itouch if u like wifi and shit.

ipod classic if u need a lot of room

ipod nano if u wanna just throw it in ure pocket and go

 

What format do you make it? MP3's don't get compressed into MP3's...

 

you have flaws in that statement. The MP3 format is the most compressed format you can get I am pretty sure. And the only thing you can do now is reduce quality to make each file be less in size. But the quality loss is not worth it.

Also in your statement you say you can compress to fit the same as an 8 gig ipod. Well then you can compress songs on the 8 gig supposedly and fit 32 gigs of music on it. Its bs and you have no idea what your talking about.

I would suggest an ipod video 80 gig. I got one for 180 usd on Craigslist and its great. Holds lots of songs, long battery life, and great use as a portable hard drive to back up my files on.

 

Fuck Apple. I wouldn't suggest getting an mp3 player which uses a third party application such as iTunes to store your music. Gets fucked up when you attempt to access it with a different pc, etc. I just tried restoring my iPod Mini yesterday, and it failed to restore; it basically killed all my songs, and isn't being recognized anymore because I was charging it on my new computer.

 

I have the iphone....but i would say the touch. My friend has one and it was pretty much indestructible.

 

I strongly recommend the Microsoft Zune over the iPod. It's better in pretty much every way.

The iPod Touch is a rip-off. Double the price of the Zune and less than half the storage capacity.

 

I have a 4 gig nano and I have only used half of its space. I works great and I haven't had a problem yet.

 

I have a stupid question, can you put songs from LimeWire onto the Zune?

 

Meh dont know what a zune is , never heard of it, but enyway get an ipod There the best =P Well in my opinion

 

buy an iphone, if you can, if not buy the ipod touch, those things can do almost at much as an old labtop trust me spend the money on it, do best buy and get the 3 year warnti for the ipod touch, for the iphone apple has one buy it's a little bit more, i have an iphone by the way
