Choosing a MP3 Player

Hello all,

I wonder if you could give me some guidence please, and a apologise now for any silly question as I sort of know what I want but am not really clear on what is available.

I've previously bought cheap MP3 players but it has always been a battery issue. They don't stay charged for as long as I need.
  • I would like a battery to last between 6-8 hours on one charge.
  • Be able to listern to audiobooks
  • Have a radio
  • Play music.
  • Play podcasts
I'm not fussed about WiFi, although I guess I would use it if I'd got it.
Nor am I fussed about watching movies. Even if I could the battery won't be used for watching movies. I intend to use it mostly at work.

I've been looking at iPods but I don't want to buy the cheapest and it not be suitable and thus a waste of cash.

I've looked at audiobooks (on itunes) and see that there are certain system requirements for audiobooks. I don't want to end up buying a cheaper version and it not be suitable.

Any help greatfully received. :)
