My iPod Nano broke so I'm getting a new one. I'm thinking of choosing over a Zen Touch 40GB or a iAudio X5L. (I sorta need help, but anyways...)
What mp3 player do you guys use? Whether it would be photoshopping or doing whatever.

I just got a Zen Vision M. It is at least 100x better than any iPod. Well thats my opinion, some people say its 500x better. 
Here are some features I like about the Zen Vision M took it while writing this post. Also, look at the other images I attached. You can clearly see the vision: M has the best screen quality.
Here are some features I like about the Zen Vision M
- Decent price. It was around 300 something
- Comes in 5 colors (black, white, green, blue, red) [i got the black one]
- FM Radio
- FM Radio recorder
- Perfect sound quality
- Perfect image quality
- Gorgeous video quality. (omg its so good! i love it. crystal clear)
- Supports many image formats
- Supports many vidoe formats (mpg, divx, mov, avi, wmv, you name it, it has it) The ipod only allows its "patented" formats such as .mov.
- Has a built in microphone. Perfect recording quality. Crystal clear, records audio from sources that are even 15 feet away. Heck 20.
- 30 GB storage
- Its media explorer doesnt install 3rd party or unwanted software. iTunes does that though. crappy iPod.
- came with sync adapter
- head phones
- usb (pc to zen mp3 player)
- outlet dock (zen to any electrical outlet) [you have to pay an extra 30$ to get this on an ipod]
- add your own playlists via mp3 player
- delete your own playlists via mp3 player
- delete your own files via mp3 player
- password protect files
- sync automatic events
- calendar
- contact cards
- digital / analog clock
- eq / bass boost / +some extra audio stuff i didnt look into yet
- it came with a leather pouch
- came with over 6 different themes. yes people, if you dont like the interface, it lets you change it to something else. the ipod forces you to use its unattractive blue/while interface.
- there is so much more i could list, its just its been less than 2 hours ive had this player, so im limited right now.

I'll never go iPod. Reasons would include that they break really quite easily. Of the many people I know who got an iPod Nano, only 2 of them still have a fully working model. I mean, these iPods don't last too long, where as my Creative Mp3 has lasted me 2 and a half years, dropping it into puddles, onto concrete, and other surfaces. And yet, it works absolutely fine; the only physical damage done to it is the white "Creative" word being slightly worn away. Then, I see my friends getting Nano's and breaking them within 2 weeks, after one drop or sitting on it once.
And then there's the fact you need to use iTunes to put in music. Just pretty annoying that all your songs are renamed when placed on the mp3, and that you have to use certain programs to put your music on. Not very fair. iPods take tons of installation on each computer, you can't just go to your mates house and stick on his/her songs, because you need to install iTunes, and sometimes drivers etc. Creative Mp3's, and most other mp3s, you can just stick in the mp3 and drag/drop.
Anyway. I have a 1gig Creative Muvo TX FM.
