My dad says he'll get me one for my birthday just so that I stop taking so many CDs everywhere. Ace. So which one should I get, and why? I've heard Creative Zens are pretty good but are they compatible with Itunes, which is where all my music is stored on the computer?

What are battery lifes like on different players? And are Ipods as unreliable as people say?

Also, what's a good price?

Cheers.
