For what it's worth, I used to own a Dell DJ 15GB, but in a weird turn of events it was stolen. I got a great deal on it, thanks to Wario 64, but now I'm back on the market. Long story short: I loaned the Dell DJ to my friend, and one of his "colleagues" at his job stole it. Who? Who knows? All that matters is that I made him sign a contract before he borrowed it, and now he has agreed to pay for a new one. I was impressed by the Dell DJ's sound quality, and thought the unit was great overall. No complaints there. The question is whether or not I should get another Dell DJ, or go with a Creative model, since they offer more GBs for the dollar. I'm assuming that the sound quality will be similar, since the interface on the Dell DJ and Creative models are nearly identical. What are your opinions?

Creative Zen Xtra

or if you want to be fancy

Creative Zen Touch

Search the forum. There's a couple of threads about this, and a few iPod threads with alternatives.

aoi tsuki, I just performed a search as you suggested, and while I discovered some helpful information, there wasn't much mention (if any) on the two Creative MP3 players that I have my eye on.

These are the two models I'm looking at:

Both can be had at prices that are very competitive with the Dell DJ 20GB, and prices that leave any iPod in the dust. The 30GB Xtra is a steal online, and the Zen Touch 20GB is nicely priced as well. All I'm concerned with is ease of use, and sound quality. I loved my Dell DJ, so I wouldn't mind getting another one, since they are safe bets, but if the Xtra or Touch is better, I may go with one of those, as they offer much more storage.
