Well, you speak like a noob you see. And Im glad you actually
own a creative mp3 player. Otherwise, you are just maligning a
company without solid basis of fact and experience.
Like I said again, your friends are not representative of the
majority. If their products were that bad, the company would have
folded their mp3 division long ago. Last I remember, the company
still has a 10% market share in the mp3 industry.
They have a bad reputation? I think not. Its just some isolated
cases which sadist like you use it to represent the majority.
