Re: mp3 player and headphones
I was more lookin for the bigger kind of headphones, like sennheiser HD555 or similar. whats this about closed and open phones anyway?
Will a pair of HD555 eat the battery of my mp3player in an instant?

Re: mp3 player and headphones
i would buy the hd 555. i <3 sennheiser. i use modded hd-580s out of an amp with my ipod. when im too lazy to bring my amp i just use my akg k26p. sealed headphones are the nuts when youre going portably. while the 555s sound really really good and i enjoy them quite a bit, i would say you should get something like the sennheiser hd 25-1s like you see all the sportscasters wearing. they are closed, 100 dollar headphones that sound spectacular. and they are fairly low impedance so they run fine unamped. hope that helps.

Re: mp3 player and headphones
like what? cool skins? then do winamp. i like their skins. i just like the way playlists on foobar work, plus the features stated earlier. and i dont mind that my music player is just a full screen list of songs with a couple small buttons at the top.

Useful improvements. Better playlists or other organization or something. I don't know.
