SAN FRANCISCO ? It seems like everyone’s talking about MP3 players these days, whether it’s the latest and greatest iPod or the slew of challengers who hope to someday take it down. The good news for you is that all of that market activity is leading to lower prices on all kinds of players; even expensive hard drive-based models with multiple gigabytes of memory can present a great value for the money.
In fact, CNET.Com thinks you’ll be surprised to find that 20GB can be a better buy than 4GB or 5GB. Apple’s fourth-generation iPod now costs little more than a 6GB iPod Mini, and the Creative Zen Touch costs even less! Plus, the 4GB iPod Mini is a downright bargain, at $199 or less. What we’re getting at here is that these five players aren’t the cheapest, but they are the best buys we’ve found: the highest-rated players that offer the most features for your digital music dollar.
