I am looking into buying my first mp3 player in the next couple weeks before school starts.
It seems like a lot of players out there are very similar, and what is different is the software with which they are designed to run. (Correct me if I am totally wrong here. I do know that it is possible to make ipods or whatever run with non-itunes programs, but it is more complicated, right?)
The two main things I want is a decent media player with the ability to have 'now playing' cues, so I can just click something when I am on the computer to have 'this song play next.' (like what Real Player has, or had)
And in terms of the actual mp3 player itself, I want something small, lightweight, and with 20GB to 80GB. Thin is more important that small, I think.
One player that looks cool so far is the Creative Zen V plus 16GB. 16GB could store a lot of my music, and the player looks tiny. Is it as good as it looks?
Budget is not really an issue, so make with the recommendations! Thanks.
