iPod, an inferior product with better marketing.

Some companies know what's important.

Personally have owned:

iRiver HP140
Creative "Brick" Zen
iPod Mini
iPod 20GB

Out of the above 4, the iRiver rocks and has a lot more in the way of features and file support, but styled too much like an old skool remote control. It's heavy, bulky and the UI on it is aweful.

Anything made by creative is aweful. The build qulity is crap and it all feels unfinished ans plasticy.

The iPod is a clever piece of marketing, but then it was the worlds first HDD based music player and Apple hav had 4 years to refine it. Indeed it is over priced, but we're talking Apple here, it comes with the territory. Besides all of that, it's a well designed piece of kit. The UI is flawless and very well thought out, the build quality is perfect and the software rocks.

My only complaint is the nightmre installing one on a PC for the first time, especially due to windows being crap at assigning drive letters to it. (long story)

Smaller flash based players are pointless. You can pay up to £200 just for a 512MB! Why when you can pay about the same for 20GB?

iPod definalty does it for me. I've probably got more iPods per head in my house than any other place in the UK.

Only other MP3 player worth concidering is the iAudio M3 20GB, if you can find one.

Brilliant! As usual the careful and intuitive production that Freeola puts into everything it sets out to do, I am delighted.
Wonderful...
