What is a good music player
« on: January 17, 2013, 09:07:11 pm »
Hey all,

Given my borderline technophobia I have never gotten an MP-3 player or I-Pod or such thing but I want to get one now, mainly to listen to while I exercise, go to work etc.

Can anyone recomend a good one which is:

small and light (can be carried easily or strapped to arm or in pocket etc)
carries lots of music
Good
picks up radio as well
Has a good dock (so it can be turned into a stereo) - together with recomendations for any particular type of dock.
well priced

Cheers

There is light and darkness in the world, to be sure.  However, there's no harm to be had in walking in the shade or shadows.

I have a midget who walks around with me and hums.  He won't be able to  pick up radio until he gets some more fillings.

I am an old man, and I've seen many problems, most of which never happened.

Thanks Priestling that was pretty helpful.

And if that doesn't work out I might just borrow your midget Old Viking.

While I don't believe they're made anymore, I've been rather satisfied with Zunes. If you don't mind something 2nd hand, you might be able to get a decent price on one with a docking system. The one I have now holds 8GB, though there are some that go up to 200GB IIRC.

If you're looking for new stuff though, Walkman and Creative make some decent mp3 players, and iPods are always popular (though I despise Apple products personally).
Her3tik, you have groupies.

There are a number of ways, though my favourite is simply to take them by surprise. They're just walking down the street, minding their own business when suddenly, WHACK! Penis to the face.
