I bought my first zen in 2008 after alot of research and comparing other MP3 players, I found that it has more for less in terms of quality and features. I liked it so much that I bought one for my wife. Now in 201, I sat on my first zen so I purchased an upgraded one. Which got an added bonus, which I love.

Thanks to Orrett Morgan for having a Creavtive Labs MP3 40GB Hard disk player back in the days. Orrett – do you still have it?

The process of ripping, converting, tagging,
as well as deciding what to make portable
is a focused effort as is the listening to
the music you care to listen to and
because you care quality matters.

Having a dedicated mp3 player
facilitates this process and
is the preferred player
for quality sound.
