Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
I picked up for myself an 8 gig Sansa, and I don't regret it for a minute. Larger screen, better menu system, build in FM radio and voice and radio recorder (though only at a bitrate of 32, so dialogue only!). The only problem is that you don't have the ease of use with Itunes, but you can use Best Buy rhapsody as your player and its nearly identical. The price is good too--I've seen it go for below $200 I think in Best Buy flyers. Pick up the action jacket, or else the screen scratches to hell, like all the MP3 players.
They're not the innovators, necessarily, but they have a decent warranty and they're popular so it's well supported with accessories. If you're happy with the nano, stick with Apple. If you want something new, try the Zune out, though I suspect you'll end up not liking the software as much (I didn't.)
