I'm finally moving from a cubicle into an office with a door that shuts. I've been working in an incredibly noisy room, under headphones. I have at least 50 CD's that I loaded on to my work computer, and I can pull them up under the WMV library, which has made me happy up until now.
But if I'm in a room, I don't have to use headphones, and the computer speakers are cheesy beyond description, and I think that the IT propeller-beanie guys are catching on to my deeply unauthorized use of hard drive space.
So now I'm looking for an Electronic Thing of some variety that I can easily store a whole lot of music on, that will dock into half-way decent desktop speakers that cost around $50 or so, that is reliable, and that won't make me nuts looking for the next CD to play. And oh yes, a lot of my music is classical and jazz, so sound quality counts too.
I suppose that I might download music once in a blue moon, but I'm pretty mired in my generation, and I tend to put the whole CD on at once. Shoot, I still remember how album covers used to smell! And album art --you just can't duplicate a Yes cover on a jewel box.
Anyhoo, any suggestions appreciated. DD#2 has an 8-gig 3rd-gen iPod nano and recommends it.

I have music on a external HD I plug into my work computer. Just add decent speakers and you are good to go. It is a generational thingie - my daughter says I am too old for an iPod

If you want to get an IPOD cheaper go to apple's website and look at their refurbished items. They change from day to day but my dh and son both have small memory refurbs that cost me 29 dollars and they work great. THey have bigger ones that are significantly mroe pricey, but still cheaper than buying new

What sort of warranty do you get on these? That's a great price, but there's no telling what they've gone through before the refurbishing.
