Axeia Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 My Zen V Plus broke down today and I'll be needing a replacement. What I like about the Zen was it's relatively good scratch resistance and long battery life/it charging itself up on the USB port. What I didn't like was that it a mere 4GB and only supported mp3/wma. So I'm looking for a new mp3 player (up till ~140 euro) that's compact, doesn't have a huge screen that gets easily scratched with a long play duration and preferably it should support formats like FLAC and mp4a (although these seem awfully rare). Oh and the way files are written to it should be compatible with Linux (my main OS), My zen worked fine under amarok. Oh and bigger is better as I got quite a lot of music and the more I can squeeze on it the less often I've to replace it.

Axeia Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 Think I found a nice one, Cowon iAudio 7 60 hours of audio playback on a single charge, supports both ogg and flac (and wma, mp3, wav.. but everything supports that) and they actually list linux support on their site.. which is a rare thing to see. Charging is done via USB (just like I want it). All in all it pretty much looks like an ideal replacement for my zen.
