MP3 player for my father

[roccles]

I am looking for an MP3 player for my father. Who is now nearly bed bound hence the purchase as he previously he listened on his computer

What is required -

Very simple to use, touch screen or physical buttons either is fine.

The most important feature is that it must allow Navigation of nested directories to find files. He will be copying over folders of MP3 files

Happy to give up on audio quality for the features above as it is audio books, spoken word rather than music.

Up to about 100 quid but happy to go higher if needed to get what he needs.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Use his phone in a speaker dock?

He doesn't have a phone!

Probably should mention it will need to allow for wired headphones as he has a set he can use while laying down.

Cheers for all the help, I tried a old Android phone of with a few different apps but I think he would have struggled that with that. So ended up buying a Sony NW-E394, its simple to use and has the required nested folder structure for navigation. Seemed expensive for what it is at £75 but hopefully he will be pleased with it.
