I want a 2-4 GB MP3 player about the size of the Nano, that is "Plays for Sure" compatible. What are the best choices in this area?

Get that sansa thing... Your problem is you purchased music online with DRM, that was your first mistake.

Out of the compatible players, none are as small as the Nanon. The smallest ones are iAudio U3 and Zen Micro.

Looks like the Sandisk Sansa 4GB is the best choice. Buy.com has it for $179 shipped free.
Anyone have any experiences with it?

that depends on if you like to listen to new stuff all the time or not. I, do not. But glad it works for some people. I'm waiting for bittorrented distributed lossless DRM-less files.... so basically, never. Actually, if it's lossless, I'd go for DRM so long as I can burn it to cd w/o any issue.
and yeah, the sandisk is probably the closest if you're looking at the 4GB range. It actually seems pretty nice.

Sansa is nice, so is the Zen Micro.

Yahoo is starting to offer DRM less for 1.99 a song...
How so? All the music you could ever want for a flat fee. I don't care if I don't own it. Some people spend more money in one day on lunch...
Absolutely. I don't care if I own it. Less storage, and carry time. I just want it, when I want it. And, with IP saturation, I can get it in a ton of places on a wide range of gadgets (MP3 players, PDAs, phones, laptops, game consoles, PSPs, desktops etc.)
iRiver Clix. This things is a beauty with a very nice screen. I bought a u10 (predecessor of clix) off of ebay for 90bucks last month and love it.

the Zen V is pretty cool, they have a 2gb for $150. Zen Micro Photo is 4gb for 179.99 and 8gb for 199.99. And as always, those are normal retail prices and if you look around or go fleebay you can prob get at least 10% off.

It means you can use Windows Explorer to drag and drop files onto the music player without installing special drivers.
