Top 10 MP3 to buy

Hey guys!

 

I'm thinking of getting new Mp3's but I can't really decide since there's so much to choose from.

I was just wondering what would be your Top 10 MP3 to buy in futureshop.

 

Thanks guys~

Re: Top 10 MP3 to buy

I don't think most people think in terms of their personal "top 10 MP3 players" list - most have one clear favorite (which is likely the one they are currently using) or perhaps at most a couple of favorites. Another significant factor that affects your purchasing decision is the question "how much do you want to spend" - a "top ten list" of MP3 players that are all beyond your budget won't be of much help to you. My personal favorite for an MP3 player - the Apple iPod Touch.

Re: Top 10 MP3 to buy

Depends what you want in an mp3 player, usually everyone just goes straight to iPods as it seems to be the "ultimate music player" nowadays. Pressing buttons on a tiny screen isn't enough for people anymore.

 

Do some research on mp3 players currently on the market, find out all their features and narrow it down to what matters most to you.

 

I remember some years back I would always be browsing mp3 player and headphone products, even though I had no plans to ever buy one. I'd be checking for battery life, storage space, expandable memory (if that still applies anymore) and unique features. Pictures and videos?

 

I have no top mp3 players on my list, and never had one for at least a year. I got bored of them, quite frankly listening to music on the go is more boring than not listening. any music I like to listen to I do at home, the only thing i've been doing with my mp3 players i still have now are listening to the radio.

I'm thinking of getting Zune HD but I'm not really sure if futureshop has it. If you guys don't please let me know where I can buy one in canada through online.

Although there was an indication several months ago that the Zune HD would be released in Canada in early February, there is currently no confirmed release date for this device in Canada.

I heard that Sansa Clip is a pretty good device if you just want music and it also provide Micro SD which is really nice.

 

How much do you think is a 16gb Micro SD?

The Duracell one is $70, doubt its really reliable though, not compared to a kingston or sandisk
