MP3 Players

Hey Lyndsey,
I have a creative brand player the kids gave it to me but with no paper work so don't know how to load it etc.
If we could work out something if you had the instructions etc love to hear from you.

Hi Lyndsey,

Same thing happened to me last week ! My Creative Zen died.
I bought an Ipod Nano 8G (5th generation) from JB HiFi. Was so good I bought another one the next day for my wife. Has plenty of storage for songs (up to 2000), up to 7000 photo's, radio, video, audio memo, up to 24 hours playback time etc.
Check out the specs http://support.apple.com/kb/SP569
Cost around the $188 mark.
No affiliation with either the product or the supplier.

Any of the Nano's will do.

If you think access to iTunes is a good reason to buy an iPod.... ah well...;-(

I use Sharepod..

40G would be more than enough. If it is just music you want on there, even 8G will be enough.

Hi Lyndsey,

We have 3 Ipods!

Two are Nano's (4 gb)which my partner and I use for music when travelling (flights/waiting in airports). They still hold a couple of hundred songs and the beauty is that we both have similar but different tastes in music and they're so easy to download music to.

The third is a 120gb which holds my 15,000 songs (our whole CD collection). We use that one in our car for music only on long trips (not for photos). I did have an old MP3 player but I only seem to use that for the radio in it at the Clipsal or footy. I still don't buy music off of Itunes, as I'm old fashioned and still buy the occasional CD. The CD when purchased straight away gets uploaded on to Itunes and then downloaded to the Ipod, and then filed away.

Not sure where you plan to use it, but we put a stereo system in our old MG over Xmas and that stereo came with a spot for a memory stick. So rather than using a CD in that car or attaching the Ipod, I now just download music on to the memory stick, plug it in and away we go. Very simple and user friendly.

Hi, I have had a 40g for over 5 years now and it's just wonderful. Its one of those things that 'just works'. If you are only using it for music, certainly you probably don't need the 40g, but more is always better. I store my son's music under a playlist for his ipod so the one itunes library is great. If you have the room, its great to be able to share your photos and even videos with others too. Couldn't recommend it more. Only problem has ever been that my slow internet connections drive me crazy with getting all the new updates that come through for itunes. Have fun,
Jan
