I'll concur on the Sandisk. In 2016 I got SanDisk Clip Sport 8GB MP3 Player from shopRBC for $50. I just checked and it's still available for that price. Not as good as a genuine iPod (too much hassle running itunes in Windows VM) but has been working fine. It has 8GB but also a slot allowing you to add a micro SD card. roland On Mon, Feb 5, 2018 at 6:19 PM, Alex Pilon <alp [ at ] alexpilon [ dot ] ca> wrote: > On Mon, Feb 05, 2018 at 04:41:46PM -0500, Robert P.
