    im not going to spend so much money on a mp3 player.. i rather just get a sony ericsson walkman phone.. that would be what i consider instead of mp3s now... i already have a sony ericsson w810i.. but the new w580i sounds way better >.< and refurbished mp3 is mainly the same... no difference..

    Well I'm sick of living without an MP3 player. So any suggestions on a new one? My preferences are:
    Size: 8GB or higher
    Price Reasonable for what I'm getting. But preferable below or close to $200 CDN
    Video: Preferable yes, but not needed
    Phone: No
    Wireless/Bluetooth: Not needed
    Memory Type: Either Hard drive or flash
    Brands to avoid: Sony
    Battery Life: Preferably 20 hours or more.

    I'm thinking about the Nano, but I would just like to get more info before I buy one.

    Sansa View comeon!! someone buy it!! it has one of the best battery life.. 8gb is $149 USD... lol so think about it!! its definately worth it!! slim, probably just a bit heavier than the ipod.. not sure.. my old sansa e200 is same weight as the new nano.. yea kinda stupid... sansa view features mp4 playback, mp3, wma, etc. 2.4" screen, expandable memory by micro sd.. up to 8gb or so.. not sure..

    The 8GB sansa is $229.99 CDN and the Nano is $199.99 CDN. Its even lighter to. I don't really think the sansa is worth my extrar $30

    Idk I might wait until boxing day, but I really need a new MP3. I've gone almost 1 year without one ><

    ooo.. i see.. nano 8gb.. at The Source By CC is $199.99.. since its on sale..
    edit: hmm.. also see it at Bestbuy.. but seems like it is on sale also.. since it says limit 1 per household or something like that... lol

    edit: again!!! http://cgi.ebay.ca/SANDISK-SDMX10R-...yZ114632QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem
    do you buy stuff on ebay though? only $146.68 CDN.. but dont know how much is shipping.. since its from Arizona US... you have to ask yourself..

    edit... hmm.. do you consider getting an old Sandisk Sansa e200 series? its only $150 CDN for 8gb at Future Shop.. on sale atm... model number is E280..

    Nah its 199.99 in Best Buy over here. Apple store is just more expensive for some reason....

    And just wondering, but why do you hate apple so much?

    not intrested in apple.. bad function.. it only looks nice.. but its stupid.. your locked on itunes.. and only reason why apple sells it more expensive is probably that you can put some text on the back on the aluminum case.. but still apple ipod are stupid!!! who the hell like ipod anyway????

    itunes really isn't that bad compared to other software bundled MP3 players. And I don't see how iPods are bad quality. Most of the reviews I've heard are positive.

    Right now I'm really leaning to that Nano.

    of course it has a postive review!!!! wth is your problem then:D lol everyone has an ipod and they would say they love it no matter what.. unless when they brought it, it is defective or something.. but still.. most of the other mp3 player and just drag and drop function unlike ipod.. and i hate ipod designs:) lol

    I meant reviews from sites. Overall they've been very positive. Customers have also been giving it positive reviews. But I guess that isn't enough to convince an Apple hater :\

    Still leaning towards the Nano

    I still don't get why you don't like Apple. At least my hate for Sony is justified :p

    iPod is a quality MP3. I sort of disliked the old generation I got, because of some problems I had with it, but the new ones seem much better and much more reliable.

    You still haven't told me why you dislike it so much :\

    and Creative is expensive (for the sizes i want anyways). ipod is cheaper and can store more.
