The MD storage capacity range from 80 mins to over 2000 mins. Of course you'll need to get the compatible player if you want to use the 1GB MD's. It was a good format while I used it but MD is done. I don't know why they keep marketing it.
You make an interesting comment. You'd buy an iPod but you don't like MP3 players? There are good MP3 players out there.
Side note: I'm pre-ordering the
Meizu M6. It's pretty close to what I was looking for and the price is fair. M6 will do until Apple decides to release a PMP with a 16x9 screen
