Need Advice on MP3 player (Portable)

[Akaz1976]

Looking for something that i would be able to carry around at the gym. CD players are too bulky and skip to much with movement and cassette players simply not good enough for changing music selection etc. So i am looking for a small MP3 player with easy to change song selection. Capacity doesnt need to be all that great as long as i am able to add/delete songs with ease. Probably not gonna need more than 20-30 songs at any given time (but if i could have 2/3 directories with 20-30 songs each that would be nice but is not essential)

Thanks for any help!

There are two suggestion for you, both mp3 player are in bestbuy:

1. Samsung - yepp' 128MB mp3player ($110 though but it has twice as much as Memory than the iRiver-64MB mp3player)
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...10986&type=product&productCategoryId=cat01052

2. iRiver - 64MB digital Audio Player ($99.99, suitable for your budget )

If I am you, I wouldda go for the Samsung since the difference is only about 10 dollars.

Enjoy

What do u think about these 2?

MPIO DMK 128MB Personal MP3 Player $150

MPIO FL100 128MB Mini MP3 Player $190

Please note the prices are in C$ so in US$ they would be ~$100 and ~$130

what a bout a George or fred you will have to search around a bit, but if you see that review they're exactly what you're looking for, decent transfer speeds (450 KB/sec for fred) the only disadvantage is that you'll have to hunt after em, I found one on ebay.

I :heart: my iRiver. 128 MB for $139. Convert your mp3's to 96kbps average VBR and you can get 40 songs, and quality's not too bad.
