I have 2 of these. They work well, simple to use and well worth the money. You do need to have a windows environment to transfer music and playlists.

The MP3 player was in very good condition and came a lot sooner than I expected it. It was a very good buy and sounds great!

I brought this back in 2005 as a non IPod conformist. I waited and waited for the price of the IPod to drop. Well the price has not but the gigs have gone up.

The Zen micro worked for what I needed it for (mostly for working out). It locked up about twice a month and and about 8 months ago stopped charging.

SO I went for the IPod Classic and have not looked back since.

Get an IPod. Just so many accessories. I struggled for years trying to find accessories for my Zen. Connectors to the radio, car etc. almost non existent. Universal connectors just don't cut it. Charging had to be about the most difficult. I could not always rely on using the computer to charge. Sometime I am just not on it long enough. The wall to USB adaptors and the Car chargers just stopped working. I guess the live cycle just stopped.

Next purchase (who know when.. the IPod will quit) is the IPod touch.
