yes i agree Creative sux, in their reliability that is. i owned
a Zen Micro which i had to replace at least 3 times for earjack
problems. i've sold it away since, before the warranty
expired.
indeed Samsung makes features packed players, which is why i
decided to get the YH-J50. audio, video, picture viewer, text
viewer, fm radio, voice recorder, games etc packed into a 6gb
player.
BUT you've mentioned some points that have really tickled me.
Creative poor sound? there must be sth abt it that attracts buyers,
since its build quality is already so notorious. and i'd say that
one of the pull factors is its sound quality, coming from an
ex-Creative user.
Sound quality, iPod better than Samsung?! lol... you're not another
iPod fan boy are you? have you even tried tweaking Samsung's
digital sound processor? SRS? heard of it? and, unless your iPod is
being amplified, i wonder how you're so fascinated by its sound
quality.
