Well, I'm sure we've all seen the news by now that Apple has discontinued the iPod Classic. Which means they no longer offer any dedicated MP3 players with more than 64GB of storage.
My father has been using the iPod Classic for many years, and has over 100GB in his music collection at the moment, so he's been asking me for some advice on what he could buy once his current Classic eventually dies. And frankly, I can't find much! Cowon has a few models with enough storage, but those are all essentially miniature Android tablets. It's a potential solution, but it would be nice to have something with actual hardware controls rather than just a single touch screen since he mostly uses it while driving or at the gym. Something like the Sansa Clip might work, as it does have an SD card slot, but the interface looks like it would be pretty painful if you have more than a dozen or so albums.
Does anyone still manufacture anything comparable to the iPod Classic?
