Watch any celebrity and they have an iPod. I remember watching "playlistism" on MTV2. The VJs were all very careful to say mp3 player. But as soon as any celebrity was asked what they had on their player they said, oh I have ....on my iPod.

And even outside of that I never see any other mp3 player even advertised. Are these other companies just hoping that people will go to a store that doesn't carry iPods and settle for their player?

I bought the Creative Zen Sleek 20 GB.

1. Because it was a better value at 250.00 than the 4GB iPod at 250.00.

2. Because it doesn't put one red cent in commie Jobs' pocket.

I've used my friends iPod, and I'm extremely happy with my purchase, works every bit as good as the iPod, AND I can use the Napster subscription service to take music to go. So I don't have to purchase music @ 99 cents plus tax a pop.

People will buy something else when something else is better. Ain't capitalism grand.
