What's the best mp3 player for under a hundred dollars?

[david622]

I'm thinking about buying an MP3 player, probably flash memory. I'd want it to be at least 512 megs, preferably 1 gig, but i'll settle with 512.

I'd like it to be as inexpensive as possible.

Does anyone have any reccomendations?

[edit:]i'd also like one with a screen, so i don't want to see ipod shuffle or anything like that

creative muvo. i think there pretty good, not that much up on mp3 players.

those are like 120 dollars for 512, i think. it's not terrible, but maybe something a little cheaper.

i don't mind if it's not name-brand so long as it works.

my g/f got a a cheapo one of ebay. i wouldnt recomend that router anyway.
somtimes it doesnt turn of, and the battery pops out.

i would go for one that recharges of the usb slot. pretty handy. only thing is if its not a standard battery if it runs out and you cant charge it when your out, you cant use it

Wouldnt really recommend this mp3 player, two of my friends have one and both ended up having to send it in for repairs within 3 weeks. May be a coincidince but yah never know.

thanks! i didn't even think to check newegg!

some of the reviews on amazon.com for it are a bit discouraging though

keep the suggestions coming!

I had the Sandisk 1GB model and didn't find anything wrong with it, the 512MB is the same thing with less space. The 1GB was an awesome little player.
