I have been using my Sandisk Sansa e280 8GB mp3 player for about a year now. I had always hesitated getting the iPod because the only way to get music onto the device is to keep a copy of your music on your computer. I love that my Sansa is just a hard drive, where I am able to just drag and drop my media files in both directions. So basically, I use it as an external drive.
My 11 year old son wanted a Zune very badly. I picked up the old 30 GB version for just under $100. Microsoft provided the great new update to the new firmware as the new Zune series. However, I am stuck with only using it to synchronize the music with my computer (not even syncing directly with my Sansa attached to the computer).
As I am browsing for a solution to my dilemma, I found a small hack on www.zuneboards.com that will make the Zune appear as a drive in "my Computer"
But I can only copy and paste from the Zune to the computer. But not back !!!
30 GB??..I don't know if you all have an extra 30 GB to spare on your computer to be able to stay in sync with your device. I would rather move the 30 GB from my Computer onto an MP3 player.
My 8GB Sansa won't be leaving my side yet.
