I shall be buying a MP3 Player soon
The decision is between these two

Just let me know which one is better

Zen Micro is 5GB (Hard Disk Based)
while
MuVo Micro N200 is 1 GB (Flash)

I would appretiate good feedback especially from guys owning one of these about the quality
xero.
I own a Zen Xtra and I know for a fact that flash-based mp3 players are more secure because they don't use hard drives, but if you want alot of space then you're better off having the Zen Micro. It depends on what you're going to use it for. Size isn't an issue as both of them are pocket-sized. It all comes down to how much space you need and what you're going to use it for. Don't worry about looks too much either unless you want to go around, showing off something that will be in your pocket most of the time.

I don't know what it was, but when I was at Best Buy today I saw a tiny 5GB mp3 player. I don't know what brand it was, but it was about 1/2 the length of a AA battery and about that same around(except it was a square. It even had a tiny color display. I thought that was very neat. Also the iPod mini's are down in price to 199 for the 4GB, so that is one that i would recommend biggrin.gif

Anyway, If you one are looking into those 2 I would go for the Zen Micro. 1GB is fairly good sized, but 5GB can let you expand and have much more music.

i own a muvo micro n200[white colour]. not to say that its all bad, but to stuff 1gb of player using a single AAA battery ain't exactly a good idea. pinch.gif how i wish i had a zen micro instead wacko.gif

Go for the Zen Micro, you will probably not need a flash drive as you are normally in the office and take long strolls in the evening. Plus you will benefit from the capacity of the Zen Micro.
