Looking for an inexpensive but decent mp3 player

[bullion416]

I am looking for an inexpensive mp3 player that is still decent. I am mainly looking to use it when I go running, so that means it should be small in physical size. As far as storage space, I am not reall too concerned....anything 128mb or larger should be fine. What do you guys recommend?

Go to wal-mart and ask to see their cheapest model.

I like my MSI Megaplayer.
But it is not good for cost per meg.

got a cheapy 32 mb jensen on E-Bay (think it was 25 with shipping). It can take up to 128 MB Smart Media. The headphones it comes with are incredibly loud (I think they are worth 25 by themselves). It doesn't play wma's, but so....

it works ok, nothing fancy. Drivers for XP are a bit screwy, but it works.

I was in ur situation about 6 weeks ago. After a lot of research I finally came up with this

It would be great for what you want. Small, lightweight and holds a poopload of songs. I use musicmatch to drag and drop. Right now I have 7 files witha about 200 songs on the player. Battery is a AA and i replace it every morning ( last a little over 10 hours). What really makes this player sing is the fact that I use a pair of shure e3c's with it. You would be hard pressed to get me to go to another player.


Good hunting!!!!!!!!!!!

by the way... i did see this advertised at ZZF about a week ago for $125

Heres something similiar but with line in....same thing cept it is not USB....

ZZF can't seem to keep the MUVO tx fm in stock for very long....
