Hello people I winder if you could help me.
I'm looking for a new MP3 player for my birthday. Budget is £100-£150, (not sure what that is in dollars! sorry!)
I want to have the most amount of space on it I possibly can - don't really want to go lower than 16Gb.

Does anyone have a recommendation? Cheers

£100-£150 = $137.40 - $206.14

Might I suggest the iPod Nano?

http://www.apple.com/uk/ipodnano/ (I have the orange one)

Everyone still reckons I should go with apple then? I do agree that the i-pod is the most stylish looking MP3 player by miles - my boyfriend has the classic one and is very happy with it. I just wondered if they genuinly are the best make, or just the best known name. I've also been looking at a Creative Zen which would get me 16Gb for just under a hundred quid, (the nano is 8Gb for about £110).

I wud suggest an iPod nano or classic. I've had an iPod video, a WMP mp3, && currently have an iTouch.

My iPod video was really good, ting wif it was that it wud freeze out of random and wouldn't turn off till dee battery died. It broke but thats because when it froze I was already pissed that day so I threw it agianst dee wall (bad ideaaaa).

After that, I didn't have a lot of cash so I bought this $70 mp3. It was decent but if you like making playlists, IT SUCKKKKED. You had to go on dee mp3 itself and go through all your songs and press a botton that said "Add to playlist". You cudn't do it on dee computer and you can only have one playlist. I love playlists so that really annoied me. Also, I didn't like how it was soooo mini. Dee battery life wasn't so good eaither =\. I forgot it's brand but it wasn't very good.

Now I have my iTouch I had gotten for Christmas. I'm almost 100% satisfied wif it. Dee only ting my wi- fi sucks at my home because all dee locations won't work. Other locations it will. Other den that, it's really good =D.

no, dont buy apple. unfortunately, many popular brands do have terrible quality and terrible tech support when tings go bad. im too tired too explain now, it's in the middle of the night. ask me again tomorrow. but i suggest that you post this in the science and technology forum instead. you will probably get much better answers there.
