Best size MP3 player for a metalhead?

[DrHughes]

These days you can pick up a bog standard 256mb mp3 player for next to nothing. But 256mb just isn't enough when you've got almost all of Maiden's back catalogue and god knows what else to carry around with you. So I put this question to you humble Rock Band forum frequenters.... which mp3/4 player is best for todays average metal head?

[the_polite_force]

well 256 mb sounds about right since ur so closeminded u wont need a huge mp3 player for ur music :rolleyes:

but to honestly answer ur question my cuzin said creative zen is a good brand and pretty cheap for 1 gig

idk i just have a psp with a gig memory card but i dont recommend it :p

[Akaymay]

Uh...iPod? Can get anything from 10 to 60 gigs. Probably more at this point.

Pardon?

I've heard Zen are pretty good but some of the bigger one's I've seen are pretty damn expensive.

Also this may seem like a daft question but how easy is iTunes to use with a non Apple mp3 player if it's at all possible?

[the_polite_force]

hmm idk my cuzin told me it was like $70 for a gig???

and idk itunes in general is easy to use but idk like i said all i have is a psp and all you do with that is just copy and paste the muzak into the folder so i have no real use with mp3 players

[DrHughes]

Chhers for the help but why did you call me close minded?

[the_polite_force]

idk i don't like the term "metalhead" when i think metalhead i think 16 yr old douchebags who listen to nothing except for dimmu and "thrash' and old metullllll

And THATS why you shouldn't be a mod.

[DrHughes]

And you're calling me close minded. What's wrong with a 16 year old listening to nothing but Dimmu and "thrash" and old metal?

yawn just cuz i have different views doesn't mean i know when and how to close threads that needs closing, moving threads, and such. you really need a new definition of mod *******

[the_polite_force]

And you're calling me close minded. What's wrong with a 16 year old listening to nothing but Dimmu and "thrash" and old metal?

cuz there is much much much more music out there than just that. and listening to only that makes someone close minded

[DrHughes]

If we are going to put mods into a real world situation then they are like club bouncers. The best ones are the ones that can stop fights before they even start, not take sides in arguments and keep the night fun. The worst ones are the ones who wade in with the boot. For someone who calls themselves the polite force, you're remerkably like the latter.

for christ's sake since when were usernames meant to be taken literally?? hey dr. hughes i have a ****ing flu man can u prescribe some **** for me man?? since u know u are a doctor. O WAIT IS DAT UR USER NAME MY BAD :rolleyes:

[DrHughes]

Wrong kind of doctor. I have a doctrate in English Literatue. Sorry.

You must have no idea of what a mod is supposed to be. It's more than just "Locking threads and moving ****". It's a position of authority. And anything you disagree with, you get pissed and go on a rant. Don't even TRY to deny it. Someone says "I like metal, and a lot of it, what kind of mp3 holds a lot of music?" and you freak out, calling them close minded and insulting them. Knowing you, you'd ban half the people on the forum and lock almost all of the threads that you don't like. "i hate acdc. locked". To be a mod, you have to be respected and open-minded. Okay, you hate AC/DC. You don't see me going on rants about how much your music sucks. I gave my honest answer, an iPod. You say:


well 256 mb sounds about right since ur so closeminded u wont need a huge mp3 player for ur music

Joking or not, (Probably not). People will take offense, for a good reason. Now, they will take offense, and most likely say "What the hell?". You'll get pissed and go on another rant.

NOT moderator material.

Isn't the Battle Axe of Doom a high end axe from Balduer' Gate II: Throne of Bhaal?

I have an iPod Video (30GB) and its great it holds thousands of songs on it and is pretty easy to use. The Sandisk Sansa MP3's are good too and cheaper than the ipods.
