And the title will be something like "X brand Y model 1Gb Flash player" and in the reviews for the cons someone will put...'only 1GB'

:disgust:

I have almost 200 gigs of music in mp3 format.......I think I would prefer a larger sample of my music if I wanted a portable player.

Agreed those should have been in "other thoughts" still better than in cons IMO.

They struggle to find something truly wrong with it, so they use the advertised size as a con...yeah, I see what you mean.

I have all my music backed up onto my computer, and I could fit it on that 1GB player. Not a con for me at all.

it definately is waste of space to put stuff about it's size when that time would better be spent on pointing out that the mp3 player does not taste like chocolate and that it lacks a beard trimmer.

What I do not understand is why these stupid small players are suddenly the only ones being sold.

1GB?
What happened to 40GB players!!

Definitely a con if there are 50 1GB players to chose from and 2 20GB!!

Yes, but if you knowily buy a 1GB player, you can't put that as a Con in your review. You knew it was 1GB when you purchased it - if 1GB is bad, then why did you even get it?!

so you're saying... in the description it reads that it's a 1 Gigabit player, and in the cons they say it's only 1 Gigabyte? you're right, they're retards.

yeah but they're two different products. I might as well put 'doesnt play cds' as a con if Im gonna compare two totally different music players.
