If you don’t have an mp3 player, and even if you do, you should check out all the different stuff that’s going on. I’m hoping this article will give you some perception of what variety of mp3 player you need and some tips on what to look for in an mp3 player.

Maybe you work out and require something small and skip-proof for jogging or lifting. Maybe you have an 8 hour (or longer) plane trip when you go home and need to pass the time. Maybe you want a new one just for the sake of having a new one. Whatever it is, this article should help you decide.

First, for those of you who need something for working out: The two most crucial specs to look for are size/weight and solid state memory, things CD players lack. You want something that you can clip to your pants or strap to your arm that won’t interfere with your movements, and you want it to be light enough so you don’t even notice it. (Tip: Get a lithium ion battery to save even more weight.) To be sure that your player will not skip if you move too much or too fast, get one with solid state internal Flash memory, which has no moving parts so it can’t skip. These are typically available as 64 to 512 MB models, with a 64 MB model holding roughly an hour of music. Prices typically range from $100 to $300.

Also, you may want to store all 16,000 songs in your collection on your mp3 player so you never hear the same one twice. In this case you need a hard drive based mp3 player, commonly known as an mp3 jukebox, for which you could pay up to $500. It will be a little bigger and heavier than others and not quite as durable as a solid state mp3 player, but that isn’t a concern if you just want to sit around and listen to music. And they are still far more portable than a CD player.

Torn between a small, light, solid state mp3 player and a hard drive based player that holds thousands of songs? Well, the iPod Mini may be for you! The iPod Mini is just one model in a just released breed of small hard drive mp3 players. They are a little lighter and smaller than normal hard drive players, and hold more songs than the typical solid state mp3 player. (Did I mention the iPod Mini comes in blue, blue, gold, and pink?) That’s it for the main differences, but here are some more things you should look for when making a purchase: long battery life, an FM tuner, voice recorder, an easy to read screen, and compatibility with your computer.

If you’re looking to purchase online, I recommend www.amazon.com. But first you should check www.mp3-player-guide.com (which has a buyer’s guide and reviews) so you can make a better decision.
