--> Well, im finally updating my aged 1gig no name mp3 player. There is so much good music here, and music that I have bought off Bleep and so on. I want to be able to carry around gigs of it all. Really helps when im painting too, to be able to just listen to music and not have to worry about the player.

So the ipod is out for me, dont like how its works and audio quality. Its between the Zen Vision M and the Zune. I hate being stuck to software to manage my music, and the zune is stuck, but its a nice player and the big screen is great.

Anyone have the Zen Vision M, or Zune and have any insights to how much these players suck or not. Im not worried about video, I just want pic ability and music.

My mp3 player has 32mb, has an on LED instead of a display, and is about the size of a pack of cigarettes. so screw all those shitty ipods.

Well after checking out some mp3 players,well media player or whatever they call them.

So im gonna get the Ipod 30gig, and once it shows up im installing Rockbox on it. Seems pretty cool, I wont need any software to use it, and I can change the way it looks and add other features to it. The guy at CompUSA today was arguing with me that you have to use itunes and thats it, no alternatives. Well I guess he doesnt know about Rockbox, or just hates it.
