Thank you for the input. I am a advid book reader/listener and use the mp3 everyday, but it still seems like it should have lasted longer. Good think we are only a couple ofweeks from Black Friday, I am sure I will be able to replace a low cost.
Any suggestions on a model or brand that has a longer life? FYI - I refuse to purchase anything apple because of their busness model, so no to i-anything.
