With streamers... and songs.

I've been pondering getting an MP3 player. Would it suit my lifestyle? Would I really get that much use out of it. I have a short commute and listen to online radio stations most of the time. I've heard some bad things about the iPod's battery life, so I checked out Creative Technology's Zen line. Me likey. Does anyone have an opinion? Ahem? Drusilla knows how to party.
