MP3 Players, iPod, Samsung

When I go to the gym these days, I don’t even try to talk to people. They all have MP3 players stuck in their ears, you the earplugs stretching to the tiny lumps in their shirt pockets or hanging from their shirt sleeves. My brother is a musician. He has an Apple iPod — plenty of room for his favorite songs, some of which are his or his friends’. You have to admit that Apple has it made when it comes to design and functionality, which is why iPod is by far the most popular portable music player.

But hey, why not do the research for yourself. You’re the customer, and it’s your ears, your music collection. So take a look at shopping.com’s MP3 players. They have quite a selection, including iPod, Creative Zen, and Samsung.
