i thought i would poll my technologically oriented friends and find out their opinions.
i want an ipod.
i cannot, at the moment, or in the near future, afford an ipod.
is there another less expensive mp3 player that people would recommend?
i would kinda like to be able to store my music library on it, so it needs a sizeable amount of space.
any

i guess at the moment i just want to know what other options are out there that are worth it and what they cost. if nothing'll really fit the bill for much less, i may just decide to either skip it, or save up for it...
as for space, i think i have about 7-8 gigs at the moment, although that's not my entire library. so again, i don't know exactly how much i'd need. more than 10, but less than 40. (i know, i'm less than helpful...)

So you're going to want one with at least 20GB of space if putting all of your library is what you want. There is Iriver and creative which both have 20GB players for around $240, but if you really wanted an ipod, the ipod 30GB can be found for around $280, and if you still have student status you can get educational discount from apple.
I'd just pay the extra $40 and get the ipod.
