Wow...I've never experienced a battery issue, and I've been using my current iPod daily for something like four years...

Well, I used to work for Apple a while back, hence why I bought each and every single model. The 4th gen (click-wheel) in particular had lots of battery problems.

And now he works for Sony... :lol:

meh - I've worked lots of places; even Japan for a couple years.

Still - being as objective as possible, now that iTunes is DRM free, I *really* like my E-Series walkman, as I literally only have to change once a week, I used it literally every day for at least a couple hours.

Doesn't necessarily make iPods "bad" (except the 4th Gen & it's battery) - I've just had a much better experience with walkman.

Well, at least you've laid out a specific reason as to why you prefer one over the other.  I have never owned a personal mp3 player-type device so I have absolutely no basis on which to comment one way or another effectively.
