Best MP3 Player for modest budget

[Deskstar]

OK, you guys must have these music players and actually use them. I don't. So, what model do you like best for less than $200.

Creative Muvo NX 256mb.

Sony Minidisc.

With Flash memory players you have to transfer all the songs to the player everytime you want to change them, which is a pain in the ass. With minidisk players you can have several disks and when you want to change your tunes, just change the disk, though of course you still have to transfer from your comp when you want new tunes. Also minidisks players have way longer battery life, since most flash memory players use AAA batteries.

No you dont. A flash memory player acts like a normal HD player. You can add/remove what you want without having to transfer them all.

Yet again, wrong.
Mini disk players have both motors and lasers in them, that consume alot of power. Flash memory players, have no moving parts and no parts that use alot of power, and so the battery life is significantly longer.
