20GB mp3 player

edwardmluk

I'm looking for a 20gb mp3 player. I want it to have a good lengthy battery life and cost around £150 (or cheaper). I've tried finding comparison sites etc...but they all just deal with brand new video/picture/mp3/mp4 players that I don't require...or are out of date pages from 2005.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I don't quite know how to say it but everything has gone video. its crap if I wanted a video player while I'm out I have a PSP, nice big screen to messing about with the ipod tiny screens. I have a Sony HD3 its a 20B mp3/atrac3 player and its fantastic, Ive just replaced the battery as it was failing no longer holding the charge longer than a few hours rather than buying anything new and the battery life is again 30+ hours. the problem is now Sony only make up to 8GB players what is that about??? I like to carry a huge selection of music with me and 8GB isnt a lot. especially now as they can store video as well even less space for music.

I did get my sister a sony A3000 a year or so ago that was the last 20GB mp3 player sony did. there are a few ebay sellers selling HD3, HD5 and the A3000 maybe you could look at those?

failing that I would buy a creative zen vision or an archos, leave the ipods to the sheep.

For just over 150 quid, you can buy an 80gb Ipod Classic. You can call us sheep, but it's got the most storage for the least cash. I use to love creative till they ditched the HD portables market.

I would not swap my Classic for the world. Buy anything else and you are wasting your money, as you will not get as much storage or facilities for the money.

If you are flying anywhere soon, you can pick them up for 135 at Dixons Tax free (airport shop)

Failing that, find an old Archos 204 : http://www.archos.com/products/audio/archos_204/index.html?country=global&lang=en
