Well, it seems Apple is the leading MP3 company, and I guess it's like that for a reason. The only MP3 player I have is an iPod, and it's easy to use. I have owned a CD Player (back when iPods and other MP3 players weren't around, or just that they weren't popular enough for me to know about them yet) from Sony, and that broke pretty fast. I'm quite satisfied with my iPod however, so I don't see a need to go around testing others.
