As has been pointed out, you would get 700MB of storage for about $0.15 rather than 4GB at $0.50. Still it's much cheaper and easier to manage than an externalMP3 player.

Except for when you want to change out a specific playlist or rearrange a playlist. Once it's on the CD, it's there. So if you wanted to listen to just one particular song, you need to find it on the cd. I used to make my own cd's all the time. Typically can only get about 15 songs on average on a CD. So that's a lot more CD's to have to carry around inte car, taking up space, not to mention the time flipping through them.

This is why I suggest the iPod. While it is namebrand, and costs a little more, if you go with the Nano, you have a screen, can easily flip through the songs (playlist, genre, artist, song title, etc) to find a particular one you want to listen to at that time. Not to mention the creation/rearrangemet of playlists. Oh, and the new Nano's have a camera and an FM receiver in them (finally!!!).

I've tried (and still have) a Sansa and one other than I can't remember the brand of. I found them to be garbage. The use of external batteries means having to have a constant supply of batteries with you (major pain, at least I found it that way). If Sansa or the others makes any with internal rechargable batteries, you're better off with one of those, but I still say iPod FTW!
