And so, I have bought a few more books this week, including the 3rd and final volume of the manga Fairy Cube. I should read them now that I have the complete set. ^^
I also bought Apollo 13, the definitive published edition of the story written by mission commander Jim Lovell (which was also used as the major basis for the 1995 film). Besides that, I grabbed two new Doctor Who novels, and Great American Hypocrites by Glen Greenwald (after seeing him on Bill Moyers Journal; gotta find his other books now too).
Now, a question!
I've been in the market for a new mp3 player for some time. I have a 4GB iPod Mini; it's main problems are that it ended up being far too little space for my needs, and it's battery has long ago packed in, refusing to hold a charge anymore, even after being plugged in for days.
What I'd like to know is, what brand of player would any of you recommend? I don't buy music through iTunes, so having another iPod isn't absolutely necessary. I just want something that's easy to use and not prone to all manner of defects and glitches. Katana has already suggested a Zune, but I'd like to hear what everyone else thinks is the best option out there in mp3 players.
Thank you.
