Which high capacity MP3 player? (Video not required.)
I know that everyone asks this kind of question, so apologies in advance! But there are a few specific features I would like, so would appreciate any advice.
(1) I'm happy to spend up to £200 or so, and want 60GB+ capacity. (2) I have no interest in watching videos on it, so don't care about that capacity. (3) Ideally it would have FM or DAB radio capacity. (4) I already have 30GB of music ripped in WMA format (variable bit rate), so would rather not have to convert it to MP3 or AAC format if at all possible. (5) Obviously I'd like something with decent battery life and reliability. I can't find anything at all that fulfills the above. The closest I've seen is either an iPod classic, but that doesn't have radio and requires all my music to be converted, or else the Creative Zen Vision:M, which has radio but seems to be almost completely unavailable now (and apparently has reliability problems). Does anyone have any suggestions?! |

I think Cowon do a 60gb version of the X5. iPod sort of size, good battery life, built in radio, plays WMA, excellent sound quality.
Might be hard pushed to find one though .... don't seem to be on sale any more. |

Creative Zen Vision:M 60GB is the ticket, they are a discontinued model so grab your hands on it fast if you can, the prices fluctuate wildly - you will need to look around but you could nab a bargain as sellers look to clear old stock.
Alternative is an 80GB Zune 2. Much improved on the old Zune (I'm sure it has FM radio though can't guarantee this). |
