I’m going to be spending a year backpacking round Oz so I need something with a lot of storage space and a long battery life. 160GB would be ideal but I could get by with 80GB. I don’t want to spend over 200 but I could probably be persuaded to pay a bit more if someone can come up with a compelling argument:)

As things stand I’m leaning towards the 160GB version of the Ipod Classic as I can pick it up for around 200, it plays videos and Apple claim that the battery life for audio only usage is 40 hrs. However, I have heard a few people on here moaning about the sound quality so I as wondering if anyone had any other recommendations?

I’m not sure if the style of music I listen to makes much of a difference to which type of MP3 player would deliver the best quality sound quality or not but my favourite bands are Guns N Roses, AC\DC and Machine Head.

Thanks
 
are you willing to spend decent money on headphones as well? if planning to use in box ones just go for whatever and ignore the sound quality.
 
I listen to metal/rock and the sound quality of the 2nd gen 80G Zune is very good mate and I have got 24 hours out of one charge as well.
