So, I have had two players die in the last 3 weeks. One was a 30gb Zune and the other a Creative Vision M. Both I loved dearly.
I have been reading reviews like a madman and cannot make a good decision regarding a new mp3 player.
I want something with a bunch of memory, good sound quality, decent battery life. It would be great if it can work with Linux, but I guess that isn't a must.
Right now I'm down to four players:
1. 120gb Zune
2. 120gb iPod Classic
3. 80gb Archos 605 WiFi
4. 16gb Cowon D2
I like all of these players but I just cannot decide.
Any help would be much appreciated.
