| 510085 | 2006-12-27 09:50:00 | The PSP is too big for me. I like a small MP3 player that still has a large enough display to show the information I want. I have a Creative Rhomba NX 512mb, which would be really good if it allowed you to use sub-folders. |

| 510086 | 2006-12-27 09:51:00 | With the ipod the only way without hacks is to get music on via the hellish program that is itunes. With the vision:m, you can use standard explorer, the supplied creative software or any other program really that allows you to sync with a portable device (WMP10/11, Winamp,Media Monkey). Audio Codecs of Vision:M - MP3, WMA (inc MS PD DRM), WAV Video Codecs - DivX™ 4 & 55, XviD5, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG4-SP, WMV9, Motion-JPEG (YAY OMG DIVX, IPOD cant touch that with there crapping codec). Other advantages of the vision:M Fm Radio + Recording Better screen, 262k colours as opposed to 65k colours Custom EQ Better video battery life 60gig model has Otg usb host I have one, and im very pleased with it, sorry if i sound like a crazed creative fan boy but its way better imo. |

| 510089 | 2006-12-27 10:12:00 | Yeah i would love a Zen, but id have to find an extra $100 on top of what i am saving.. i guess it would be worth it though. Thing is.. i like iTunes :P i have it setup to scan my music dir and update the library every 30 mins. i love it :p EDIT: oh and i should have mentioned, i dont care in the slightest if it can play video, i just want a nice big, MUSIC player, nothing else. If i can watch the occasional TV episode, thats a bonus, but i prefer a pc screen anyway. |

| 510092 | 2006-12-27 20:01:00 | $554 isnt bad If you decide you want one just PM me. I have the 30GB and will probably look at flicking it off soon to upgrade to the 60Gb model. |

| 510093 | 2006-12-27 20:19:00 | Reading through some of the comparisons, the Zen seems to be favoured for videos, and battery life for MP3's is about 5 hours less than the IPod. All im looking for is a MP3 Player, so the IPod (at $100 cheaper) might be the way for me to go. |
