I was looking for a comparable replacement for a Creative Zen 8GB player, but wanted to try to do so on a budget. I started out looking for direct replacement feature-wise. I was shocked to find that the prices on these things have not really dropped much in two years. I don't personally need an expansion slot, so taking that option out really opened things up. This Sony was, by far, the best deal for the money. I did not install the software that came with it, I just drag and drop files into the appropriate folder - very easy. The battery charged in less than 2 hours. Navigation and set-up is very intuitive. When playing music, the screen shuts off automatically to maximize battery life. The mini-USB connection is great since most of my gadgets use it.
What's great about it: Ease to use, 8GB capacity, not an I-pod
What's not so great: Plastic gets scratched up looking at it
