I must say it took a while to get used too, along with the MP3 convertions but for its cost and size its holding up well, i would recommend it to anyone on a buget or wanting a low tech alternative. Cheers guys


    mp3? Get some FLAC on that thing and listen to it shine


  2. yeah that was my orginal intention, but firstly most of my files were already burnt on here in MPEG4 and i dont have the CD's, and even so it would probably be as much of a pain in the arse as the MP3 convertion. Maybe when i have some more time over easter

    ahh switching from iPod?



  4. Yep, i was a pretty big itunes shopper aswell so half of my music is still unavailable for the sanza, still its nice to turn my back on apple for abit, aswell as the lovely britney from customer services
  5. Burn all your iTunes bought tracks to CD then re-burnthem to your computer as MP3. Will sort that little issue.

    If you're such a big iTunes user why not a nano?
  6. Those speakers are pretty cool Gerard


  7. oh righy, cheers



    generally i think all of apples MP3s are too expensive for what you get, ok they look shinny but not really worth the £100 plus pounds for something that only has 8GB and has reliability issues, when i could get a 12GB MP3 for £40


  8. You will loose extra quality though (Lossy -> Lossy)

    I would download the songs (in FLAC or MP3) from P2P, you already paid for them imho.

    EDIT:

    Cant play the Sansa itunes mp4? Or do the tracks on iTunes still have DRM?

    True, but i try to avoid the dodgy stuff even if its for an honest cause, luckly when i'm at Uni i'm only a hop away from the town centre and will get CDs instead of MP£ store downloads, so once the Itunes stuff is sorted it i won't have to go through this problem again


    The Sansa uses Media Player to sync it so the Apple file types dont play. an alternative method is to use the "drag and drop' into the MP3 player itself, which means you can add files like Flac, though this pretty disorganised when actually on the MP3, my only real critisism of the Sanza
  10. Hmm ok Was just curious

    I use Drag&Drop for my phone. Works beautifully imho. Each to their own!


  11. yeah, with other things its ok, but the Sanza seems to get abit confused sometimes, maybe a mass Mp3 tagging session is in order
  12. Correct tags are crucial indeed
