Thanks for the replies guys but Westone has nothing like this anymore and that L-plug from Amazon looks like I could get it at Radio Shack. I'm looking for something tough and high quality. 

OK guys, here's my problem:   I have the Panasonic Cubic Zirconia IEMs and I love them except they have a straight plug. I'd like it to have a high quality L-plug so I'm looking for a good extension for it.    1) I'd like it to be short so I don't have to deal with too much extra cable. ...

Just wondering if anybody has gotten their hands on one yet and can compare it to other iPods.

The right channel on mine just died too. I ordered it a less than a year ago as well. I'm filing a return request.

Great! I was thinking about buying a pair for the GF and since she doesn't have an iPhone, the NE-6 is the answer. Thanks.

Realistically I can see 3-4 Android based PMP's hitting the market in a year or two.

Ramos is terrible...

I love my NE-7M but the worst part of it is the stiff plug. If it bends, it breaks, and I had to return mine and reinforce its replacement with some epoxy in order to avoid the same issue. Has Nuforce improved the durability of the plug in the NE-6 or is it just the same exact plug?

A Cowon device with Android is not only possible but probable. Anybody hear about Teclast rolling out a Wifi Android PMP? Teclast T58, New Android Based PMP From Taiwan : Akihabara News .com

If Cowon could somehow port the Android platform to their next device along with a capable Wifi and Bluetooth chip, making a "Cowon S10 with Android" of sorts with all the strengths of the Cowon S9 but with updated hardware and an Android OS, I would buy it in an instant. Now that would be...

More players should be like this.

Yikes, I'd rather buy a decent laptop next year. I'm not that big an audiophile. :P

You gotta go with MP3 or AAC if you want to future-proof your encodes. Ogg won't play everywhere. I'd choose mp3.

Sansa Fuze if you don't want to spend too much. Amp3 if you want the best quality sound.

Wow, you ripped all that? What format did you rip to?

Ew, Zune. How did you amass such a collection?

Extropian, marketing music on an mp3 player is not a feature. It's just a marketing tool. It's a way to interact with you in a way that keeps you on the Zune Pass. It's not exploitative by any means, but it's not a real feature anymore than you'd call Microsoft putting links to buy its other...

I want your entire collection.
