Just had a Scorching Deals e-mail from Richer Sounds. They have got a Philips KEY011 128Mb MP3 Player for £19.95 - max 1 per customer. Looks decent for the price.

    Brilliant spot, £60 on Argos website.

    Telephoned my local Richer and they said it's £19.99 if you want one. If you want two or more you have to pay £24.99

    And Curry's are doing a Philips 512MB player for £59 - this is the price you'd normally play for 128MB, it's a good little machine, and recharges from your USB port :-)

    Thanks for the tip off!! :)
    Picked one up earlier today from the Chester branch (They still have quite a few left from what I could see!!)
    Although it's only a 128mb player,it'll do me for running/going to the gym and for £20 you really can't go wrong!

    Cheers :)

    The blurb says its stores up to 4 hrs of music. I have put 5 albums worth of songs on it. This is at the lowest quality but tbh i cant tell the difference. It can also store data files.

    IMO its well worth the £20 price.

    You can also store loads of data files like word documents etc
    (as these take much less memory that music files)

    As well as about 40-50 which is about 2-3 albums.

    Just make a new folder inside your mp3 drive when connected to the computer, call it what u want and put what u want in there.

    Very good for £20, aso has remote.
    Teso and argos selling this player for £60 so has to be a real bargain for £20

    Just bought 2

    for decent quality of bit rate you generally are looking at 1MB being about 1 minute of music

    Convert them to WMA format and you'll get double the amount on.
