    I`m looking for an MP3 player for cycling. Around the E50.
    It would probably be in my pocket so I want something that will take a reasonable level of abuse and has the headphone jack on the bottom.

    You shouldn't cycle around listening to music. It's a distraction.

    You need to be able to hear what's going on around you.

    There`s no issue if u have it down low. In fact I`ve heard that it can be safer as people listening to music tend to turn their head and check if its safe to turn or manoeuvre while people who don't, just assume they can hear traffic.
    Also, I`m talking about quiet country roads here not the middle of Dublin.
