My parents are making no secret about the fact that they're considering getting me an outright MP3 player.

The only problem is that they're technilliterate and judge the quality of these things in the number of songs they can hold.

I don't want an iPod (although it would be cute), and Azar mentioned the Zen Touch line by Creative.

I was wondering which ones you guys had personally used and liked very well. How much does it cost, what harddrive sizes do they have, do they come with peripherals of any sort, etc.
