MP3 Players

I was given an ipod at Christmas, which surprised me no end, because I had never had a desire for such a thing, but I absolutely LOVE it. I haven't tried transferring CDs yet, but am going to do that soon.

I have a pretty enormous CD collection I eventually want to put onto an mp3 player. Thank goodness for fair-use rules! It's not illegal to copy your own media for yourself. I'm hunting around for an mp3 player, too.

if it's a Nano you just plug it into the USB port of your computer and it will charge it

I LOVE the iPod Nano that we have!! We even have a car kit that uses the car's cassette player to play songs from the iPod over your car speakers... I don't know how the other iPod's charge but I would imagine that they also charge using the USB cable

Thats one thing I like about the zen, it uses a triple a battery. My other daughter has an ipod and it must be charged on the pc.

Yeah that kinda sucks if you're out somewhere with it

If you're out with your car you can purchase a car charger for it that plugs into the cigarette lighter.

Yeah, there are a lot of extras that the ipod gets you for.

For lots of extra money

hehe. I did go with the iPod though. It's very nifty looking. It's still charging though. Gonna have to see how to put my own music on it. do I NEED itunes to put music on it? Like do I need to upload my music onto itunes then to my ipod?

I have a Creative Zen Nano Plus and it's awesome! You can get them in any colour you like (mine's red), and they have up to 1 GB of memory, which is about 500 songs. There's a michropone to record yourself, and you can get any radio channel on the radio setting. Here's a picture of mine:
