I received my Creative mp3 player a couple of Christmases ago and love it.  It holds plenty of songs, which you can then organize them using the software provided with the product.  For the same amount of memory, the iPod products are usually 2-3 times more expensive.  The only downside is that you cannot purchase music from iTunes, but there are several other music sites available.  I use mine to listen to podcasts and it holds more than a week's worth of audio, so it's great to take on vacation.

 Overall, a great product.
