Re: MP3s / iPods - help needed please!
|
I use a Creative Zen Sleek MP3 player. It's now been superceded by the Zen Vision, IIRC. Excellent player. 20Gb is enough to hold over 350 albums worth of music. You may find a smaller hard drive (5-8Gb) more suitable. The creative software is simple to use and ripping tracks from Cd to the player and a backup on the PC is simple.
Prices for a 4gb Zen player start at about £55 up to about £300 for a top of the range 30Gb Vision that plays HDD video 2.5 inch screen and all the bells and whistles you never knew you needed.

What accessories are essential/desirable?
You may want a case to protect it (I don't bother personaly) or a travel charger possibly. A good set of headphones usually helps the sound reproduction. The supplied ones are usually naff. I use a set of Sennheiser PX100s as recommended on here to me by others. Excellent for the money (about £15 - they were about £30 or more originally). I can't recommend any 'in-ear' phones as I don't like them so don't know what's available.
