MP3 players

Okay... I need some opinions.

iPod Nano 4GB

Zen Neeon II 4GB

Which is the better product?

At the moment I'm leaning toward the Zen because of its line-in recording and not needing to bother with all the itunes crap.

When buying mp3 players, I have a policy: "Anything but an iPod". The bloody things are more trouble than they're worth, IMO. Besides, Zen models are pretty cool.

Dude , you need to go creative.

I have a zen micro and love it to pieces.

It's so much better. It has radio, recorder, removable disk for storing files, and better sound. It's also build more solidly instead of like a buisness card like the nanos.

Im also against ipod, cause it's to pop. I hate how you have to have an ipod or you suck!

GO with the zen, i promise youl love it!

I can honestly say I couldn't care less wether people think I suck or not. I have a 40 GB ipod and a 60 GB ipod video.

I have never had any trouble with either.

If you are prepared to be a little creative and spend 5 min surfing the web you can work around just about any problems associated with "anti-file sharing features".

Ipods are great, but my policy is if there's a competing item that can do everything the ipod can, then get it. After that warranty is over, Apple's customer support couldn't care less what happens to your ipod, plus ipods are over-priced for their features. if it wasn't for the patent-protected click wheel and apple's outstanding advertisements, ipods wouldn't be at the top of the mp3 player market.

plus, lately there has been a rivalry between zen and ipod, and if you can get over all the hype of owning an ipod, zen wins.
