I'm considering getting an MP3 player for commuting (no cd player in the car; I plan to use a cassette adapter) and walking the dog (Charisse, our six-month-old Old English Mastiff).
One co-worker suggested an I-pod. I would have to get the PC version (99-cent songs sounds really good). Initial outlay is a little steep right now though.
I'd like the option to rip cd's to the player itself and 2 to 3 hours of music is plenty. Expandability would be nice also.
Something around $100 is about all I can do right now.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
