Saw this picture, gave me a chuckle...

What MP3 players do you guys have (you surely must own one...)?

I've been living with a 4GB 2nd Gen IPod Mini for a while, which isn't anywhere close to being able to hold my some 50GB of music, soooo I splashed out on a 80GB MS Zune today.

Anyone have one of these? The screen size did it for me over the Classic IPod.

Sony Ericsson W810i
It's a phone/mp3 player (with 2GB Memory Stick). Good enough for me.

I got an Ipod nano video with 4gb memory for christmas. I didn't even ask for it, so i was really surprised.

Heh, you set yourself up for a "because his pants don't need room for anything else" joke, which I'll kindly overlook.

I have a Zen, a Zune, and a 10gig Gigabeat

I got some cheap one off of woot.com just to see if they were worthwhile. I think it's a sandisk. I never use it.
