Arrow DailyTech Audio Lover's Holiday Guide: Players and Phones

DailyTech lists their top picks in portable MP3 players and MP3-playing cellphones. If you are in the market for such a device, read on!

Music lovers are living quite possibly the greatest era in history for their passion. Today the music lover has a broad array of gadgets at his or her disposal with which to carry around a music collection in the palm of one's hand. With many solid CD releases this year, and a wealth of undiscovered music -- whether you like rock, oldies, indie, rap, techno, electro, metal, glam, punk, funk or anything else -- the world is the music lover's oyster.

For the audiophile on your list, DailyTech's Audio Lover's Holiday Guide will give you the goods on how to give them something that will make their 2008 one rocking year. This edition features the best mp3 players on the market and the best mp3 cell phones on the market. It is helpfully broken up into sections, for your convenience.

The MP3 player market is saturated and diverse. At the top sits Apple, which obviously reigns king, but Zen, Samsung, Microsoft, and SanDisk all have some intriguing offerings as well. Obviously the biggest choice to make is flash vs. hard drive. Flash players are substantially cheaper, are typically smaller, but don't have as much memory (usually 1-16 GB these days). So for a music lover, they might be able to put their top 50 cds on it, but not their entire music library.

As to hard drive players, they are bigger and more expensive, but they sport better screens and the ability to dump a sizable music library into one place. They typically have capacities of 30 to 160 GB.
