In the market for a new DAP and found a thread on this topic... but it's 3 years old! Lots of new equipment has hit the market since then. Is there a forum consensus for easiest to manage UI or at least a short list of contenders? What's your favorite? Which are the buggiest?

Looking for a DAP that is: - Significantly expandable -- I mostly listen to my own music rather than stream - Easy, logical UI / management - Wifi / bluetooth would be great but not absolutely mandatory - All my music currently is ALAC and don't plan to get too exotic with formats going forward...

I’ve resisted upgrading from my iPod Classic as nothing could match the 300GB capacity. But it’s clearly on its last legs and the alternatives have improved dramatically, so I need to upgrade both it and ditch iTunes while I’m at it. I mostly play music that I ripped (ALAC) from my own CDs...
