Best non-i-pod MP3 player?
 

So what is the best non-apple mp3 player? I need as large an HD as possible, and dont care if its a color screen or any of that. What MP3 players offers the most space for the buck?

Thanks.

iRiver, but what is wrong with the iPod for the price and disk size it is one of the best?

Well both iRiver and Apple are expensive. Dell has a 30gig for $239. Apple and iRiver both charge $299 for only 20 gig.

Anyone know any larger and cheaper than dell?

I personally like the creative zen. It looks so cool, but the iRiver one is nice.

Thanks!

Yeah Creative Zen has a 30 gig for $189. and a 40 gig for $229. That is the best I have seen so far.

I would by a Creative product just because they've been in the audio business for a long time.

Creative also have a Nomad, retails for about $280, 60 GB

That's the largest capacity available right now AFAIK

Yeah I had a very nice Sony MD player I bought in 1999 for $400. It was pretty cool but back then they could not play MP3 disks. That would be nice but I still would not want to mess with the disks even if they can hold a gig of MP3s.

IAudio is supposed to have the best sound of them all..

I always liked my Creative Zen, untill I dropped it on the ground pretty hard so it was destroyed... Got the money back, but used them all on a party-trip to denmark... :P

I was on the European presentation of the new/facelifted Mazda 6 near Pisa and all the journalists got presents. It was an Iriver MP3 player. N10. 256mb.

A cool thingy. My first one. I use it almost every day. Allthough it's a bit short
on the memory part, it's enough fr now.
