    Hi guys,

    Sori if this has been done before, or im in the wrong place.
    But I want to get a mp3 player. Im really torn between the new Ipod Touch and the new Creative Zen. My question is which do you prefere and why?
    I like the idea of putting videos onto it, as I watch programmes (on my bro's ipod nano) on the bike in the gym! (i also like the radio aspect on the creative zen).

    The money thing isnt too big a deal, i just want one thats better quality (ill be gettin it in newry anyways;))

    Both good quality devices. You're asking in the apple forum, so you're not going to get a recommendation for the Creative in here!
    The big advantage of the Creative is that you're not limited to iTunes. You should try both in a shop to see which you like the look and feel of.

    I have a creative zen mosaic eight gig, fantastic little gadget and does exactly what i want. Very easy to put songs on it, (drag and drop) and battery life is great.

    If you're looking for a simple mp3 player than go for it.

    I do have an iphone and have borrowed a normal ipod in the passed but found it a bit too big.

    up to personal taste i guess.. test both and see which one you like better

    I have both the 32GB iPod Touch and the 32GB Creative Zen X-fi and I use both all the time.

    The creative is way handier for walking around as in you don't have to look at it to change songs or anything. The iPod is so handy for the internet, games, apps and videos. For videos on the Creative the quality is great but the screen is just that bit smaller. Also I hate itunes. The radio and the internal mic on the x-fi are dead handy too.

    They're both brilliant players, I think I prefer the Creative for size, weight, ease of transferring music (drag and drop) and the radio feature. You get great noise-cancelling headphones with it too. It depends what you'll be using it for really.
