hi all, i consider to buy a hardware mp3 player that is also capable to record... i know that there are some people on this list who own mp3 players, so i'm curious about their experiences both for playing back and for recording. to me it seems that an mp3 player is a pretty good alternative for recordings compared to minidisc or dat recorders ... but i'm not sure about the recordings quality... (just for field recordings, not for concert recordings) thanks a lot...
