    mp3 Player

    Yo. I wanna get an mp3 player, and I've been looking at the iRiver 20GB, which is £199 (Amazon), and the Creative Zen Touch 20GB, which is £153 (MircoDirect).

    What makes the iRiver more expensive, and is it worth the extra 50 quid? Which mp3 player would you people suggest?

    Thanks in advance.

    considering i saw the iriver 120 for £144.95 at currys, but not in stock I got rather annoyed as it was the one I was after too but not at the £200 price! :d

    the iriver is probably a better device, but if your just after mp3 playing, the zen touch is gr8, i owned one and the sound quality is very good.

    In the bargain section there is the Zen something 60GB for ~£185 if you want tons of space.

    Otherwise the iPod is good if you're a bit of a simpleton and just want a decent player that looks good. I dont think i can recommend anything other since i'm still waiting for a good 20GB player to come out.

    Ive recently bought the iRiver H140, and its everything it could be - superb bit of kit.

    But as the others have already said, if you want just a mp3 player, the Zen ive heard is very good.
