I hate Ipod and want something else for MP3\'s
my ipod froze, my songs got effed up on my old computer, and now apple wants $30 for shipping to fix it, AND its not compatible with napster's new unlimited songs for $15/mth.
so....i am getting a new MP3 player, but dont know much else about other brands. I want one that is small, has a very usable interface, and it doesnt have to be able to hold 10k songs, 1500 or more should be fine. batt. life is important too. i saw the smaller rio at circuit city and it looked nice, but i know little about it other than that. any help would be great. thanks fsuplayer |

I don't use Napster, and I don't know how tech savvy you are, but I would imagine there's a way to get it to work. |

Re: I hate Ipod and want something else for MP3\'s
I'm wondering the same thing. my ipod has broken THREE times in the last 9 months and I don't understand how anyone's continues to function.
I don't really know a good answer to your question, but if anyone knows some good ones, I would like suggestions on 10 GB+ units as well. |

yeah, compatible if you want to burn all the DL'd songs to a CD, then import them to itunes.

My wife has one of the Mini's, and I thought the iTunes software converted everything to a usable format. Personally, I got an older iRiver--extremely happy with it. Only holds about 150 songs, but has built-in FM tuner. I like the product line they have, so you might want to check out some of the larger versions. My recommendation would be to look at CNET.com for reviews. That's where I looked. |

Re: I hate Ipod and want something else for MP3\'s
Why not check out a couple of the techno hardware review sites, or the Amazon.Com store reviews for the various models which interest you.
This would seem to be a more direct path to a prompt answer for you. |
