iPod or Alternative?
Now that a buddy at work has 20GB of killer metal on his machine, I gotta get an MP3 player. Curious if anyone here has a 20GB iPod alternative like the Creative Labs products, and what they think of it.
How about the iPod people? Do you think folks are crazy for considering anything else? I don't have an Apple at home or work, if that matters, and I will never pay for iTunes. I just want to get all his music, bring it home to my machine and be able to listen to it when I am on the go. Thanks. KJS |

The question I have about the iAudio is, do you have to go through any gay interface software to get your music onto the thing or can you just put it on there in mp3 form. I know with the iPod you have to like send all the songs at once and they get transformed from standard mp3s or something along the way.

Plug it in, drag and drop. Done. It plays any audio format you'd care to listen to, including MP3, OGG, WMA, ASF, WAV, and maybe best of all lossless FLAC, you can use it like a hard drive, it has line out, an FM tuner, mic, upgradable firmware, everything. It's available in 20GB and 40GB and with battery life of 14 hours or an optional 35 hours. I'm sure there's more I've not listed. |
