Title: Creative Zen 4GB
Pros: Competitive price, Interface is great, DivX support, iTunes AAC support
Cons: It's plastic, not aluminium
Verdict: The perfect iPod nano alternative
Summary: While the world is obsessing over Apple's new iPod touch, let's not forget about all the other cool MP3 players out there. You know, the ones that aren't locked down to proprietary file formats and limited to use with only one PC or Mac, ahem

Title: Creative Zen V Plus
Pros: The Creative Zen V Plus offers a cute, pocket-friendly design without sacrificing screen real estate, and the vivid OLED display is viewable from any angle. The player is packed to the gills with features, including an FM radio, voice and line-in recordin
Cons: The Creative Zen V Plus's joystick is really small and has a cheap feel to it, and we wish Creative had included all the buttons found on the Vision:M. The screen is difficult to see in bright sunlight, and there's no UMS support.
Summary: The Creative Zen V Plus is a superb choice for anyone looking for a compact and feature-filled flash MP3 player with great sound quality. If you're looking for a more sophisticated design (or have large thumbs), check out the iRiver Clix instead.

Title: Creative Zen V Plus
Pros: This thing is tiny, More features per dollar than most other players, Music quality and FM reception, Good battery life,
Cons: Video isn't something you'll want to watch for hours! nor can you, There are better UI controls out there,
Verdict: There isn't one big standout feature that makes the Zen V Plus a "must have"? product, but it does a lot of things that a lot of portable media players that cost over three times as much can't even do. In fact, I'll go so far as to say that I can't think
Summary: When compared to the iPod shuffle the Zen already has twice the capacity at a price that is nearly identical. We're not doing a head-to-head comparison between the two products, but it is interest...

Title: Creative Zen V Plus
Pros: Loads of features considering the size
Cons: Cheap and lightweight
Verdict: Its small size contains many features, but you're left with a cheap feeling
Summary: Creative might be onto a good thing with its most recent players, but its names for them are only going to confuse punters. Do you want a Zen Nano, a Zen Stone, a Zen Stone Plus, a Zen Vision, a Zen Vision: M, a Zen Vision W, a Zen V or a Zen V Plus?

Title: Creative Zen Stone Plus
Pros: The Creative Zen Stone Plus comes in a choice of six colors and offers 2GB of storage for less than $70. It includes some handy extras, such as an FM tuner, a stopwatch, and a voice recorder. The player also has good sound quality.
Cons: The Zen Stone Plus interface is not totally intuitive, and the screen is too small to display full track info. It also doesn't offer full ID3 tag sorting for music, and the rated battery life is unimpressive.
Summary: For those who want a super small and cute MP3 player that offers more than just simple music playback, the Creative Zen Stone Plus fits the bill nicely.
