Predictably, this turned into a bit of an Apple iPod fest, but it was well done. They looked at more players than you're likely to see at any one store. There were some other stand outs as well. Worth checking out if you're in the market. I especially liked that they reviewed both large and small hard drive players separately.
You can distill the current fleet of hard drive audio players into a single phrase: More for your money. Prices have fallen steadily while storage capacity has risen dramatically over the past year, making 60GB and larger players a reality. Many players out there also double as photo viewers, recorders, and USB storage devices. But the success of no-frills music players such as the outrageously popular Apple iPods and the competitors from Creative, Dell, and Rio demonstrate that music is the main ingredient. And that's where we've put our focus in choosing devices and running them through our array of audio tests.
