Suggest me an mp3 player

Under 250 bucks, and more than 5 GB, if that's humanly possible.

I can't afford an iPod right now, and don't really care about 30 gigs of mp3 storage.

Yea, I want to be able to listen to a few hours of mp3's. 64 megs isn't even an hour, so I'd get really tired of hearing repeats. I'm just like that I guess. :/

i have the creative labs nomad muvo 128 and its so awesome. i did a lot of research before i picked out my mp3 player too. i think it goes for about $150 now.

i like my nomad 3. it's got 20 gigs, and runs about $250-300.

there's also the option of buying a discman that is able to read mp3's burned onto a cd. you can fit a couple hundred songs on one disc.

otherwise, ipod is by far and away the best pure mp3 player...

i have some rca kazoo or something, its terrible and not worth the money (costs like 100 bucks)

just get like an mp3 player witha 5 gig memory. 30 gigs is kind of overkill. Even after a year of high speed access at college, i have nowhere near 30 gigs of mp3s.

so 5 should be all you need

I have the Archos Jukebox Recorder 20. Archos has the best players for their price range. Mine has 20 Gigs of Memory- on which you can save MP3's or save data on it as well. Mine costs $270 at Circuit City. That's only because it has an internal microphone that can record voice mp3's. I wanted just the jukebox 20 (no mic), available at Comp USA for $250, but they were out of them that day.
