Who is this anamoly we call Jumpman? How is he able to do what he does and still survive after years of torment? It seems he feeds on the hate, growing with an intense passion to put unassuming members in their place.

ipod battery isnt insanely bad. I go like a week..and whenever im sitting by my computer i just plug it in to the usb like i would with my cell phone charger so its no big deal.

but im not a fanboy of either..i just got an ipod for the student discount. My brother has a creative one http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=213&subcategory=216&product=13805 that he likes (i think thats the one). Not sure of the gb, but hes the kind of person that does research when he buys stuff..

30 gb for an mp3 player is ridiculous... If I\'m in one place that long, its my computer, and that plays mp3\'s just fine... aside from that, I\'ll use my 500MB mp3 player while working out and I\'m happy with my 120 songs.

Your options are simple:

1) Creative Zen Touch 40GB ($259.99)

2) iPod Photo 30GB ($325.99)

Unfortunately iRiver doesn\'t make a 30gb+ player.  iPod batteries used to be crap pre-photo, but after personal experience it\'s safe to say it\'s decent now.

My advice:

- Go to CompUsa, they should have all players they sell on the shelf for you to play around with.

- Download iTunes and see if you like that software.  Not sure if Creative let\'s you download their music software unless you purchase their product.

noone needs to carry thier entire mp3 collection around in a device the size of a brick, or immediately needs access to 1000 hours of music
:rolleyes:

5-6GB is all you need at the most

I can see what you\'re saying, but i just want to be able to listen to whatever I want whenever i want. Have an hour commute to uni there and back every day, sick of wanting some AC/DC and only having a Nirvana MD, it\'s Hi-MD but thats still not enough storage. I\'ll check these ones out cheers guys.
