Good Points

Excellent price - 50 Dollars cheaper than an iPod
24 hour battery - better than the iPod
The volume controls are built-in as buttons
Superb sound quality
Decent case comes with it - not a shoddy pouch like the iPod has


Bad Points

The touch-pad is a bit sensitive sometimes
The earphones are big


General Comments

I've had my Creative Labs Zen Touch 20Gb MP3 player for about 6 months now, and I can say it has been excellent in that time! The reset button is very handy for those rare freezes (it's happened twice so far) - The iPod lacks one, so you have to wait for the battery to die... What a drag!

The battery life is 24 hours - AMAZING - this is hard to find on any other player. It can even last up to 32 hours with WMA.

The sound is very good quality and NEVER skips.

The case, I'm also very happy to say, is Extremely sturdy (I dropped mine from a tall desk on to hard wood flooring and it kept playing the whole time through - not even a dent in the case). The screen is also remarkably scratch resistant.

You can store files on it too - not just music.

It is up to 50-60$ cheaper than an iPod

The unit is also fairly customizable, although it does lack some settings such as more seconds for the back-light and a reduced shutdown timer etc...
