Fappar this is probably more than you bargained for but one thing I'd point out that no one else has.
You've got a number of people (Tina, Gloco, Mystyler, myself) arguing that MD is superior. TMC is the only person willing to argue that a flash player is better.
Go with the opinion of one person or many?
I would concede that HDD mp3 players have their advantages over MD units, but not flash players. Perhaps the only advantage would be really hard core mountain biking where only a flash player could withstand the big hits.
Something else that I don't like about mp3 files. I like live sets and electronica/trance music. MP3's have a gap at the end of each song so it's really annoying when you record a live set Pink Floyd's Pulse for example and to hear the pop in between each track. MD has gapless playback and no pop.
I really wish that portables would support OGG, that would be really nice. If the iPod supported OGG, that might be the enticement I need to add one to my collection of hardware.
