MP3 players
Posted by: jcs_smith on 31 January 2008
I don't think we've had this question for a while. Can anyone recommend an MP3 player, preferably at least 8gb and with an FM radio? I don't want an IPod because I'm not willing to buy anything from Apple.

Ha. Have a look at the Samsung YP-K3. Pretty cool and has an FM radio as requested. I've got the 4gb version since the 8gb was not out at the time...I imagine it's been released in the UK now. A quick google search will give you the answer.
Enjoy,
Ben.
Ps: 4gb is plenty in my opinion, and transferring music to and from any mp3 player is easy enough.

My wife's little Creative Zen 4Gb has an Fm radio built in and takes SDHC cards which are getting very cheap now. I saw a 16Gb card in the States for $75....
We had one hic-cup with it but the latest firmware seems to have that sorted. Plays videos and stores contacts etc too. We paid £80 in Argos. We haven't done a back to back for sound quality with our old 20Gb iPod, but who cares!

I had a Creative Zen V Plus with 8Gb, but it started to fail and I sent it back to Amazon. They could not replace it so I got a refund and bought the 4Gb version. Neither takes memory cards, so I am puzzled by Tony's post. Are we talking about the same product?

Tony,
Mine is quite different. No SD slot and a smaller screen but also a lower price (£60 from Amazon). I have now listened to 3 Creative players and on all of them, the sound quality at 128 kbps WMA is excellent. I suspect that whatever model you choose, you will be pleased.
