What brand is your MP3 player? - bit-tech.net Forums

So... who is responsible for playing your tunes when you're on the move?

capnPedro · 29th Sep 2007, 13:31

SanDisk Sansa e280

An absolute steal for £75!
The interface isn't as slick as an iPod's, but the sound quality is better, has a nicer screen and is less than half the price.

No MS option? Edit:tarly rtt
Will probably get a Zune when the new ones come out in October, unless they're really crap, in which case it'll be a 16GB Zen.

Tim S · 29th Sep 2007, 13:42

koola · 29th Sep 2007, 13:43

iPod here, wouldn't be anything else

z3rb · 29th Sep 2007, 13:52

Apple

I feel like a whore. A dirty, dirty whore.

cpemma · 29th Sep 2007, 14:02

A Sony 2Gb picked up for £18 in a Play offer. Stuff paying a fortune to Apple for a fashion item. I like unkempt.

5th gen ipod vid, i "may" upgrade to a 160gig unit.

but i saw those new fatty nano's in the flesh and they remind me of these biscuits which are made out of chocolate, wonderful bit of kit.

specofdust · 29th Sep 2007, 14:31

3rd gen 20GB ipod. I too am considering upgrading to a 160GB unit, but only when the Itunes and firmware issues are fixed, and only if the decreased sound quality rumours turn out to be false.

g3n3tiX · 29th Sep 2007, 14:33

PSP (should I put sony ?) But I don't use it much for music. I might grab a mp3 player someday.

Mother-Goose · 29th Sep 2007, 14:38

Sony NW-S706F 4gb.

steveo_mcg · 29th Sep 2007, 14:52

Old iriver 120 is my main going away player, but my SE 800 does most of my music work these days.
I had an 1st gen 5gb iPod before they were cool!

ElZog · 29th Sep 2007, 14:55

iPod I got almost 4 years ago still running strong, replaced battery last chrimbo myself (cost a fiver off ebay), no problems so far.

I hear the new iPod classic has worse sound quality (to audiophiles at least) than the other iPods due to Apple deciding not to use Wolfson Microelectronics components as they have done for years.

DarkReaper · 29th Sep 2007, 15:00

60Gb iPod, coloured alpine green by Colorware. Mainly used for in-car entertainment and parties since there's no hope in hell of me cycling on the road with earphones in.

Duste · 29th Sep 2007, 15:02

Olympus - m:robe MR-500i.

./^\.Ace./^\. · 29th Sep 2007, 15:02

iRiver iFP-995 512MB Music player and picture viewer...
But in about a week from now I'm getting the new iPod Touch, not sure if I'm going for 8GB or 16GB yet...

proxess · 29th Sep 2007, 15:09

5th gen iPod Video 60gb

I play my music on my Nintendo DS with a Supercard Ds one.
