The Coby MP826 (8GB) Digital Media Player is pretty good.
I bought the Coby MP826 (8 GB) Digital Media Player for listening to music while I was cleaning at work. I sorted through, probably 7 other brands and sizes. Since I have a huge music library on my home computer, I figured 8 GB would be large enough for a varied song list. It was plenty. I paid around $85.00 for it. I saw it as an investment.
  
The size it great for putting it in a T-shirt pocket. Sometimes I just put it in my front pants pocket. The problem there is, you have to slide it in just right or the touch screen gets bumped and it will pause the music, or maybe, change the volume. It would be great if it had a clip for clipping it on pants or a jacket, but it doesn't. Also, stuffing it into a pocket means dealing with the earbud cord. You have to put it in just right or the cord may come out.
  
The earbuds were not super comfortable. They were a little big for my ears and required alot of adjusting. The sound from them is great. They are just a little bulky.
  
The battery life is supposed to be 5 to 6 hours. It is. Then you have to plug it into a USB port with the computer ON. Sometimes, I don't want my computer left on, so an adapter for a wall outlet would be better. It takes about 4 hours to charge.
