MP3 Players...
 

So, after three years faithful service to an abusive master, my trusty 5th gen ipod has one to the big white shop in the sky... and i'm looking for a new player. Fancy something different to the iPod, which i'll probably be taking apart and converting to flash memory to serve as the player for my car stereo.

Must:
- Be big capacity, by big i mean 80-100GB+ my 60GB 5th gen didn't have enough space for all my music, let along all the films etc i'd want to load when i go away with it...
- Have video playback, and a half decent screen
- Sync easily with a PC, any that sync with iTunes would be awesome but i doubt any of them do, drag and drop would be best...

That's about it really, price not an issue but value is - please no iPod recommendations this time, been there, done that, fancy a change.

What you got? Any good?:cool:

Also, which MP3 player is the loudest so it has half a chance of drowning out my exhaust?

You just need good earphones.

I have that thread running already, just wondered if there was much difference in the players.

Sony Archos

Wait until next year when the MS Zune is launched in the UK. Meant to be a credible ipod alternative and a 120Gig model has just been released in the states. Could always source one from over the pond if you cant wait :D

well, i tried to convert my old ipod to flash to save a bit of cash, but it looks like it wasn't only the HDD that was dead...

so i now have a 120GB Zune syncing on my desk next to me, nuts to apple, now i just need an old ipod mini to convert to flash to use in the car;)

Never used a Zune, being an apple fanboy :p

Just curious, how much of your library do you actually listen to?
I've got 40 odd GB on my iTunes, and the stuff I listen to happily goes onto my iPhone. Also, now you're not on itunes, you don't get the excellent genius feature :p
