More gift ideas for the music fan, but honestly, who doesn’t want an MP3 player today? The vendor choices haven’t changed much since last year: Apple, Microsoft, Sandisk, Creative, Cown and Sony. There are 2 main choices in MP3 players – whether or not it has a Flash drive or a hard drive. The Flash drive based ones are a lot smaller and lighter. Here are but a few good samples.

Apple iPod Touch (2nd gen, 32GB: $370, 16GB: $280)
Apple iPod Nano (4th gen, 16GB: $200)
Sony Walkman (8GB: $92)
Creative Zen (16GB: $153)
Microsoft Zune (Video 120GB: $225)
Cowon PMP (16GB: $177)
Sandisk Sansa View (32GB video: $210)

Everyone knows a music lover or 2 or 12. What better gift than an album (starting around $10 on average), collection (varies), or box set (varies, could be as low as $25)? This is definitely a gift that can keep on giving for a lifetime.

Amazon has a great page with lots and lots of music ideas.

If you’re not sure about your friend/family’s preferences, give them a gift card from iTunes ($1/song) or perhaps Rhapsody ($13 & $15/month subscriptions).
