Need a cheap mp3 player, maybe an ipod, i don't know?

[ascendant]

as far as computers, i know a lot. hell, i can build my own. however, i don't know jack sh*t about mp3 players or ipods.

all i know is i need something i can upload music from my computer into and play while doing my cardio. i have a cd player, but even with it's skip protection, it still skips. plus, a cd only holds about 18 songs max. i want one of those kind of deals that can hold 300+ songs, won't skip at all even while jogging, and is more compact than a cd player.

don't know the difference between an ipod and mp3 player, but i just need something basic. don't want to blow a ton of money cause i'm only gonna be using it while doing cardio. other than that, it'll just be sitting in my "misc. training drawer". so basically, i just need to find something that is pretty cheap, is reliable, won't skip, and can hold at least 300+ songs in mp3 format. was thinking of going to walmart and looking around, but want to make sure i don't get some hunk of junk or something.

i'd recommend a mini-ipod.. holds 4GB, small and light, wont skip.. i can tell u one bad thing about ipods tho,, their head phones break easily

they have new wireless headphones for the ipod i go with that

if i got an ipod i'd lose it in a week.. much less wireless ear pieces? hell i've lost 3 cell phones in the past 2 months.... yea verizon loves me.

i just picked up an ipod shuffle from best buy for like $70. it's small as hell. i got the 512... holds like 80 songs which is more than enough for me. if you're looking for something simple, it doesn't get any easier than this. i don't know how to attatch pics but here's the basics on it.
