Psychedelic Doodle Pop

Aye, it seems like I go through an mp3 player every six months. I have gone through two sonys, two creative zens, my Mum's creative zen has also broken so I'm getting a tad fed up with them. Seeing as RYL is generally the fount of all knowledge after google (and yes I've looked around amazon). I've read ones with flash drives rather than hard drives are better (so how do I tell?) and erm, yeah I'd like one with 8GB+, or would it be better to just buy a cheap small one that lasts? (Are there such things?)
