    DO NOT buy an RCA product! MY Kazoo mp3 player is a female dog, and the buttons on my RCA cd player only respond after you press them about three times.

    panasonic has this cool one that has 64mb mem. and can play mp3s, jpegs and vid clips. but its sooo expensive. 279.99 sale price. <_<
    i would pay 100 dollars less for that. :(

    64MB? pfff....if you get a mp3/cd player, you can burn up to 700 megs of MP3's onto a cd and play it in that. rio makes some excellent products. check out Riohome.com

    But CD players are big and you cant just throw them in your pocket comfortably. MP3 players can be as small as a 50 cent coin.

    ya see thats the thing an mp3 player is small and you dont have to burn cds but the downside is that i cant listen to cds on it(meteora) :angry:
    um rio has good cd/mp3 players but every review i read on it says that they have very bad anti-skip
    well so far a jvc cd player or a panasonic mp3 player comes to mind

    Thats why you rip Meteora onto your comp, then put them on the MP3 player ;)

    ive got a minidisc player. You can get sony's lowend model (the one I have) for around $130 and they're small. Depending on the audio quality you want to use, MDs can hold around 74 minutes, 150 minutes, or 300 minutes. The 300 minute one doesnt have terrible quality, but it isnt great, and I cant tell the difference between 150 and 74. Minidiscs are cheap (I got a 10 pack of Memorex ones at Best Buy for around $11)

    There is a new Sony CD player out that costs only $70. The way you can tell which one it is is that these one's are colored.............

    just as long as it fits in my hoodie pocket, isn't crap, and maybe cheap, i'm happy. my (portable) cd player is a Philips and it works great. got it at costco too. it's got a bass boost thing (which btw is awesome) and doesn't skip. but i only use it when i'm not at home.
