What players would you recommend. My needs are modest, a few hours of MP3s would be enough. My primary goal is to listen to "the teaching company" lectures.
What I would recommend is any of iRiver's current flash based models. Almost all of them have upgradeable firmware that can disable drm, turn them into a usb mass storage device, and add ogg vorbis support. They're really nice linux companions :) Check iRiver's website to make sure the one you get has a "umd" firmware available, if it does, you're on your way. (I just happen to have a rather old 128mb iriver flash player, works great. can even record 64kbit mp3 off a stereo line in, and holds ~2.5 hours of -q3 vorbis) -- Calvin Walton -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
