Need suggestions on best cd-player or MP3 player for running .... under $150.00

Okay all ... I am getting ready to start running again on my lunch break at work, and wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions for a good cd-player that can play MP3's or a good MP3 player itself. I only have $150.00 to spend on this, so no saying get an iPod LOL ...

Thanks,

Aaron

any small mp3 player..the nike riomp3 players are nice..hold like an hour of tunes...u don't need more for running unless you plan on running marathons.

Havent seen those, you dont happen to have a link handy do you? Yeah I was thinking something around 256MB is perfect since I only plan on running about 2-4 miles depending on weather route so that isnt a very long time running.

Thanks

I just picked up an i-river iFP-790 (256) MP3 player/FM tuner.
I rocks! Small, lightweight, holds over 8hrs of music, uses one AA battery, direct digital encoding. I can't say enough about it.

Look into minidiscs. <$2 discs can hold about 5 hours of music and are rewritable again and again so your "playlist" can change. The players cost $35-$300 on ebay. Just look at Sony's Net MD players as they seem to make the best quality ones. 50+ hours on one AA, and the player is about about the size of a small wallet.

In my opinon you should get a CD player if you want to play CD's

An MD player if you want to play MP3's and give up the ability to play CDs

And an iPod if you have a ton of cash
