Which Mp3 player would YOU choose and Why

I bought a C250 v2 because it was inexpensive. Unfortunately, the no-name cheap players I gave away were all better than this. Had it about 10 days, it has frozen up several times (only shows Sandisk logo, or gets stuck on Connected). Called the company’s support. Have lost all the songs on it 4 times so far, having to follow the last resort recovery steps, after trying everything else i could find on the internet and what the support people told me.

SO- 

“Which Mp3 player would YOU choose and Why”

I would  buy ANYTHING but SANSA. The “why” is above.
