So my iPod finally died after 3 years. It was an older gen 30GB color photo, so now i’m back out there looking. I know of the usual iPod/Touch, but what other ones are good on the market. I would like a large one (i keep my 30GB filled and usually have more than that), but i may consider a smaller one if the price is decent for the product. thanks ---

zune seems to be the main option otherwise…I know a few people with them and they love them. Talk to skunkmonkey and see. I like the iRiver stuff as well The only nice thing about the iPod is the amount of 3rd party crap that you can buy for it ---

If you can still find a first gen zune they are usually pretty cheap. I got mine for $89. Its the 30 gig model and the latest updates gave me all the bells and whistles that the new zunes got (new menus and wirelss sync). The screeen looks great for videos and the software is really simple. ---

I have a Zen and it’s meh not that great. My roommate had a Zune and loved it. The only thing was it seemed a little bulky but other than that it was easy to use etc. ---

I just bought dlatones 8gb sansa. Looks good to me, especially for the price. Ill get back to ya though, with some type of “review” when I get it. From what I can tell its much like the nano, just alot cheaper. Oh yea…no itunes needed either. If it doesnt use itunes, its automatically better than an ipod imo. ---
