My beloved MP3 player went belly-up last night, and I have realised that working through mindless paperwork with nothing to listen to is going to be completely unbearable.

So can anyone recommend a good, mid-price MP3 player? I don't need anything fancy - just something that will hold all my music.

Any comments much appreciated.

ETA: ... and I missed lunch to go to an electronics shop for a replacement - in the course of which I got the old player out, and to cut a long story short, the battery was flat, but the jam that had rendered it unworkable had unjammed itself, and it seemed willing to play again. Was tempted by a flash new player, but prudence and sentiment prevailed. I went back to the office, recharged Old Faithful, and it's working as sweetly as the day I first got it.

I'm ever so relieved - this player was a wedding gift from Q, and I would have been so upset to lose it before its time.
