[splintitan]

thanks

Any one that Rockbox will run on.

That includes iPods.

iAudio players do

I guess if you're going for a HDD player, too, the current Cowon iAudio line-up is fairly good.

How are you planning on sorting them? Perhaps you could just use playlists for your purposes?

 

[splintitan]

my songs are sorted by folders, this way i can also have set "playlists". so iaudio players huh, ill look into it.
are there players that do both?
thanks

I think Creative can do it. On my MuVo, you can browse by folders.

Can you explain how to do that? I have a MuVo TX FM.

You use the creative software to load the songs right? You can create folders on the MuVo using that, then load the songs into the particular folder that you want.

OK, thanks. I'll take a closer look at Creative's software. I really haven't used it much. I just now opened a PDF manual that was installed with the software and I'm seeing some pertinent info on this issue.

I do not use any software with my zen nano plus - it is a mass storage device so there is no need for this. Just drag-&-dropping the folders (albums) into the root folder on the player and they show on this little screen. It was the same with a muvo I had earlier.

 

[splintitan]

ok next question... which players can be used as an external storage device?

thanks!

 

[dderolph]

As far as I know, any of them.

My little Sansa M240 does all of the above, plus it has FM radio, and can be used as a personal recording device. It synchs perfectly in Vista under WMP11 - folders and nested folders and playlists.

My Creative MuVo TX FM can also be used as an external storage device.
