    Default MP3s for me!

    Well Im thinking about buying one of these but before I blow all my stocking money on one piece of electronics I wanna know if its worth it. I really like the Ipod touch but its got a lil price tag on it. My brother has a zune and I dont like the interface....so any suggestions?

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    IMO, the iPod touch is just basically an iPhone except without the phone part and all of the really important stuff that you would want an iPhone for.

    I think just an iPod classic or nano would be fine and they're I think somewhat cheaper than the touch

    The Touch is weak and easily broken. A friend of mine has (or had) one. Dropped it once and the screen broke. The Classic on the other hand is a bit more sturdy, plus cheaper, plus more space.

    I'm a fan of the iPod nano. Relatively cheap, no moving parts, almost impossible to damage. I've got one in the car and one on the stereo, and it doesn't even matter if the kids grab one. They can't break them.

    -edit-

    Stay away from the Zune if you value your sanity.

    Or look outside the narrow view that most people have of MP3 players, i.e beyond Apple.

    Creative make some pretty nifty stuff. I've got two players from them, for different uses. A small 1GB one, which combined with the rubbercase it came with is near indestructible, and perfect for when you're out and about, and a larger 60GB one which has my entire music collection on, a bunch of films and the first series of Daria, very useful for long journeys and when i'm on break at work. Not as indestructible, but still very resilient.

    I'm also looking for one. Big HDD, Wi-Fi, and that's about it really. Looking at the Zune.
