While copying music to my mp3 player, I was asked by Creative Labs if I wanted to update the current operating software so I said yes. After the operating software was updated, the device stopped working stating that there was a firmware problem and no further explanation. from Amazon.com I bought the Zen Vision M 30Gb to show videos in class where I teach. Its functionality, price and ease of use proved to me yet again how marketing overwhelms everything in contemporary America! from Amazon.com I received a brand new Zen Vision M 30gb player as a gift. The first nine months were fine. from Amazon.com I give it a 5 because its easy to use and it works with every media player out. Pros. 30 gigs (who needs more really I only have about 20gigs on this bad boy) music playback is great (its made by creative enough said) from Amazon.com - Smaller than my last MP3 player (a Dell Jukebox) - Beautiful - it comes with nice-looking preset themes (6) and the the outside is attractive - Cheaper than an IPod for the same amount of space (30 GB) - Can function as a planner, calendar, and can do two-way transfer with music and video, as well as can be a (albeit large) flash drive. from Amazon.com I got my Creative Zen 30 GB as a replacement for my 40 GB Zen from Best Buy. I have had it since 2006 and through many bumps and bangs later, it still works as good as it did as when I first got it. from Amazon.com I have owned my Apple iPod classic 160 GB Silver (6th Generation) since Dec 2007. Before this iPod, I butght Zune 80 GB Digital Media Player (Black) , but I finally returned it to the store due to its shorter battery life. from Amazon.com Okay, I really don't want to jump into the middle of the on-going name-calling contest going on between ipod people and ipod bashers. I WILL say that when I began buying portable MP3 players many years ago I did a lot of research before purchasing and Creative always seemed to have a product in the category I was looking for that seemed a better bargain than the competition. The company is still going strong many generations of devices later, and the Zen Vision M is frankly amazing. from Amazon.com Advertising the display is the last thing creative people should consider because dispite its tiny bit higher of resolution, you won't be able to see anything under daylight. Say when you are walking on the street during the day and you wanna switch a song, I can gaurantee that you won't see a thing on the screen. from Amazon.com I've had my Creative Zen Vision:M 30gb player for a couple years now. I've never had any trouble with it (other than the occasional freeze up, which one should expect with a spinning hard drive. from Amazon.com
