Creative is being misleading when they say you get 60 minutes of near cd quality as opposed to the Rio's 30 minutes. Competitors are going to be fudging these numbers with the associated qualities as they try to say they're better. The bottom line is that the Rio gives you 60 minutes of MP3 quality and 30 minutes of CD quality(Which you really don't want to deal with because it takes forever to download:That was the whole purpose of MP3.) MP3 is so good that it is near CD quality. If Creative wanted to give you the strait line they would tell you how many minutes of mp3 you get and it sounds like it's 60 minutes which would be the same.
