Mp3 Player Shopping: Sony Or Creative

I'M LOOKING INTO BUY A HARD DRIVE MP3 PORTAIBLE...AND THESE ARE THE TWO I'M CHOOSING FROM..WHICH DO YOU KNOW IS BETTER?

Sony VAIO Pocket Digital Music Player - VGF-AP1L
OR
Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra (60GB)

 

sony uses a real shitty format that sucks,
buy creative labs all the way

 

Yes I've Been Reading The Reviews And Everyone Says The Software On Sony Sucksass...the Only Thing About The Creative Is They Say The Case Pops Open? What Do Yo Know About This?

 

I have a zen xtra 30 gig and I love the fucker, get it. Be warned every once in a while it needs reset but, all you need to take care of that is a paper clip (it doesn't erase any songs or anything when you reset it)

 

I reccomend archos over either. they got a high end one with 100 gigs of storage space.

I Want The 60 Gb...and Yeah I Heard To Carry A Tooth Pick Around..but What About The Case Poping Open? Does It Feel Cheap Or Something? Do You Hook Yours Up To A Car Stero To? If So How Does It Sound..i'm Talking About A System Not Like A Factory Stero.

 

SEND ME SOME LINKS AND REVIEWS.

 

Isn't That For Video Dork? I Need It For Music.

the case never popped open for me, it doesn't seem like it would ever accidentally pop open... huh.... i'm stumped

 

I say sony only because I have sony laptops and they have never failed me but I have heard alot about creative.

 

the dude probably dropped it like a tard

 

YEAH ME TOO..IT SEEMS LIKE THEY WOULD HAVE TO DROP THAT SHIT A LOT YOU KNOW.

 

I hate my sony laptop. biggest peice of shit ever sold as far as I am concerened.

 

DIDO

 

Actually Sony Usually Makes Good Products..i Have Sony Everything But I Just Have Been Hearing Bad Reviews On The Mp3 Player...like That The Software Sucks..that It's To Big.. And Blah Blah Blah.

 

I have a sony mp3 player and I luvs it. but it's small, just what I was looking for (small physicall, and only 256, but that's all I really need). It only carries music though... Sony Network Walkman NW-E75. It makes me happy.

 

I have no faith in anything sony makes anymore. I have had 2 piece o crap dvd players that died in less than 30 days and then my laptop that continually forgets it has a dvd/cdr/w drive. basically my opinion is that they make decent sound components but that anything with a hard drive is prolly gonna be crap. feel free to have your own opinions.

 

Sounds To Me Like You Don't Take Care Of Your Shit...anyways..my Sony Dvd Player Is The Shit..it Even Tells Me When My Dvds Are Dirty...

 

no, I care for my shit. sony just makes crap. and no matter my opinion on Sony I still reccomend the Archos . I did my homework before deciding that was the one I was gonna purchase. I have yet to invest 600 bucks in an mp3 player, but when I do it will be the archos av480. I am an active duty sailor and I dont want to bring 200+ cds with me to sea, so this IS a subject I have researched. I am sorry the Link I gave you billed it as a video player, but its a mp3/mp4 player. if you dont need the video abilities they also make cheaper smaller capacity mp3 only players. of all brands, archos is the only one I failed to find negative comments on. that alone should make you consider them.
