MP3 recs?

Alex grabbed my Sony mp3 player from my pocket the other day and threw it. It landed across the kitchen in Remy's water bowl. It was already on its way out, but the water was its death. 

So now I have to buy something new.  I have an audible account so it would be nice to use it for that, but not necessary since I can use my phone for audible. I did at one point have an Ipod nano but it really didn't last very long.

I use my mp3 players all day long most days. I use it while exercising, gardening, inside, outside, pretty much everywhere.
What do you ladies recommend?

Re: MP3 recs?

  • I bitch about all my Apple products all the day long but I still can't live without them.

    I have the iPod Nano 4th generation.  I use it mostly for audiobooks now.  Once that goes (I've had this one over 5 years), it will be another iPod Nano.

    90% of what I listen to is audiobooks from the library. I am such a nerd. Have you had problems with the power button on your Nano? That is what went on mine and I couldn't justify another for the price if it would only last a year again.
  • I have the Sony Mp3 :-)

  • Nope, no issues.  My brother had his first one for 6 years.  My dad's had his for 4.  We haven't had problems.  (Though I think there is something to them not lasting long - gets you to spend more money on a new one!)

    Hmm.
    @shepherdjel I loved my Sony's! In my experience they last for a long time. I am just bitter they aren't making them colourful anymore ( I had the purple one). FWP!
    @packfan20 Maybe it was just me. I am going to have to think about this more!!
  • I have an Ipod Nano, 3rd generation. It's so old, I've had it for 6 years. It has lasted so long and only charges with one cord. I can't mix and match Apple cords with it lol. So old! I love this thing and am afraid for it to ever break because a lot of the music has been on it forever and isn't in my Itunes account anymore. I'm sorry your Ipod didn't last long! They cost a fortune and should last a long time.

    No recs, obviously, since mine is older than some people's children.

    Nano!

    I'm biased though. All of my electronics are basically Apple. :P
