My family have both iPods and Sansas. However, I like a Sansa over an iPod for the following built in features that a Sansa has but an iPod.

1> Digital FM tuner with 20 preset stations which many folks love to listen to radio when they’re on a train or a bus (public transportation)

2> Voice Record and Radio Record features

3> Removable battery (when a battery dies in an iPod may cost you a new iPod)

4> I like 64,000 colors screen

5> Bigger clear screen display, anti-scratch screen and hard to scratch its body.

6> It can play all format sound files

I bought a Sansa c240. Yes its an earlier version, but I prefer it much more than the ipod. I was thinking to buy the ipod, but I like the newer models of Sansa. I think Sansa won my music playing heart. When my c240 dies, which will be in a long time, I will purchace one of the newer models.

Yay Sansa!

I just got my new mp3 player and it kicks ipods ass way up because it has radio and can record teh radio songs can ipod do that? And It even has for watching movies and replacing memory with more memory. This is some hot stuff.First i thought of buying ipod nano then i saw this one and now she’s all mine!!!

I think that by FAR, Sansa outweighs the Nano in almonst all features. Not only does it grab the edge as far as common features are concerned, it also includes the video playback option! How cool is that! For those are questioning durability, it may be helpful to note that the Sansa e200 uses Titanium liquidmetal for the back pannel casing and scratch proof material for the front to increase durability. Plus… memory is expandable…. This is a great product that addresses most of the common issues of MP3 player… Compatibility, Size, Storage, User Interface, Durability, Battery life and not to mention… the cool look! Eat your heart out NANO!

I should also add that Rhapsody 4.0 is very impressive…

My old player was a 1st gen iPod nano. Just got a Sansa e270 Rhapsody. It’s integrated w/ Rhapsody similarly to how the iPod integrates w/ iTunes…only without being “anchored” to it like the iPod is to iTunes. It’s freaking awesome…I’ll never buy an iPod again. It’s a bit thicker than the Nano, but I can listen to FM stations w/ it…which kicks ass. And of course, the battery is replacable. And I can add space by plugging in a flash card. I love this thing…Sansa/Real/Best Buy really have something badass here.

Don’t forget, the battery in the Sandisk can be user replaced. Once that battery only charges up to 15 minutes, the iPod needs to be either A) sent to a technician, or B) thrown in the trash. This is a pretty important feature in terms of longevity.
