Love the company or not there is a reason that IPod has taken the vast majority of the Mp3 80Gb market. You may hear many people complain about the player being tied so tightly to ITunes or other similar complaints but the fact remains that the IPod Mp3 80Gb is very popular.

 

Features

Pros

Apple has taken the time to improve upon earlier models, the IPod Mp3 80Gb now has better battery life, brighter screen and larger memory capacity. Memory is a must have especially now the ITunes offers movie downloads. In addition to all the improvements IPod Mp3 80Gb also has a variety cool games to play.

On the more technical side is the new gapless playback. No more gaps between the tracks of your favorite album, old or new. On a side, not you can update the software on older players and get the gapless playback on them as well.

Cons

Since this player is basically the same design as the earlier model, you can still expect it to scratch easily and show fingerprints. To prevent damage to your IPod Mp3 80Gb you might want to look into a screen protector or carrying case, the nice feature of the IPod is there are more accessories for it than any other mp3 player on the market.

One big disappointment is the lack of FM radio, line in or voice recorder. Many other brands are offering all of the above as standard on mp3 players 80 GB and otherwise. Considering the price of the unit, it is surprising that there is no radio.

A nice option would have been a removable battery, even though battery life is nearly double, what it used to be.

Finally, the unit itself is expensive as are the accessories, however once again manufacturers have failed dismally in the ear bud department. Throw away the pair that ships with the IPod Mp3 80Gb.

Customer Ratings

IPod is not number one for nothing, customers love their Mp3 80Gb. Most customers who purchased the 80 GB IPod were returning customers and diehard fans. Comments like, Apple is the best, perfect mp3 player and more are frequently heard.

Overall

If you have the money to spend the IPod Mp3 80Gb is by all accounts a great personal media player. Very few complaints among customers and though expensive there is a great line of accessories. Not to knock the product but $599 at Amazon seems a tad expensive for an mp3 player that has been on the market for several years. However, that is simply a personal opinion and is no reflection on the quality of the unit itself.

While some of the most common portable mp3 players on the market contain hard drives that hold only 4 GB of music or less, you can find some that are much larger and hold a great deal more information. If, for example, you are interested in a MP3 20gb player the options below might give you a good jumping off point for your search.

Creative Zen Touch MP3 20gb Player

The Creative Zen player has plenty of features that make it desirable for consumers with large music libraries and an interest in bringing along that library wherever they go. One of the unique features is that the player can actually hold either MP3 or WMA songs.

Most WMA songs are stored in 64 kpbs so you can hold about 10,000 music files, although the replay quality is not going to be as strong. With the 128 kbps settings, you’ll be able to hold around 5,000 MP3s. That’s what a MP3 20gb music player is capable of doing.

Besides the hard drive capabilities, the Creative Zen MP3 20gb player also includes a number of other features. The player has a handy search function that lets you scour the entire list of your library to find that one song or artist you want.

Plus, the player includes a USB 2.0 port that allows for faster synching between your computer and the player. Keep in mind that the Creative Zen Touch 20gb MP3 player is not compatible with MACs or with any operating system more recent than Microsoft XP.

Sony NW-HD1 20gbMP3 Player

Leave it to Sony to produce an attractive and large MP3 20gb player. That’s what they’ve done with this sleek, attractive, and silver model.

You can listen to three different types of music files with this player, including WAV, WMA, and MP3 files. The unit also comes with a small but crisp 1.5 inch screen.

You can find some smaller models with larger screens. Another difference is that this model does not support video playback. The screen is mostly used for navigation.

However, the device does sport some impressive memory life. You can listen to your MP3 20gb player for about 30 hours without having to recharge its battery. Another one of the selling points for this player is that it only weighs four ounces.

Other Considerations

One of the problems with some MP3 20gb player choices is they are more difficult to find than you might imagine. Most of the more popular and newer digital mp3 players on the market either have smaller or larger hard drives.

However, if you definitely want a MP3 20gb player then you can find some great choices around. Be sure you don’t pay too much for the unit you choose though.

Remember a Classic iPod and Microsoft Zune have a 120gb hard drive and only cost around $250. You may want to check out my other guide on mp3 video players or 30gb mp3 player.
