There's a reason EVERYONE has one and it's NOT advertising.

*edit*

You need to provide a valid excuse as to why you won't get one... frankly even then I don't know ANYONE who's looked at the others and gotten anything but an Ipod.

My brother and a good friend of mine both didn't want to get an Ipod and BOTH got one... and BOTH WORSHIP it now.

Yeah...the reason everyone has them is because somehow they became chic and people decided it was ok to piss away $400 for glitchy software, problematic batteries, and a somehwhat flawed interface. iPods fucking blow, plain and simple. If you can live without all of your friends ooh'ing and aww'ing over the Apple logo, buy something else and save money and sanity.

For video capable MP3 players, I like the RCA 20GB RD2780 or the iRiver 20GB PMC-120. Both are nice and both can be had for around $200 (give or take...I think the cheapest I've seen the iRiver was like $238, but damn dowes it look nice). The Sandisk one looks good, too. I've only used their SD memory cards and TransFlash cards, but no problems whatsoever. Honestly, I don't like MP3 players. They're just the Discmans of the 21st century. Hell...my digital camera has an MP3 function. Guess how many times I've used it. When did it become mandatory for every single second of your life to filled with sound?
