Just a quick comment: If you want to play DRM-protected WMA content (and
actually, this applies to several other DRM-protected audio and video file
types as well) on a player which doesn't support the DRM, once the file's
able to be played on your PC (i.e., you've obtained the license for your PC
from iTunes, NetLibrary, wherever), you can then use a program like
SoundTaxi (www.soundtaxi.info, with JAWS scripts for JAWS 8.0.2173 or 9 at
http://www.hartgen.org/miscellaneous.html under the SoundTaxi heading) to
remove the DRM restrictions and convert it to something like an unprotected
MP3 file which can be played in any player that supports MP3 (including the
Stream).

I would say a Victor Reader Stream hands down, but the speaker isn't
great for just listening. You'll need to get some external speakers if you
don't want to use headphones, but other than that one limitation, it's the
best player available imho. I especially like support for all the various
file formats including, Daisy, NLS, rtf, html, brf, wma, .flac, .ogg, .mp3,
and your run of the mill text files. Let's not forget Audibel support and
support for protected content availabel via System Access. Also, FYI, I
currently have a 16 gig card in it now, but I have heard that people have
been abel to use 32 gig cards successfully. Also, the voice recorder is
pretty good. The only other significant drawback is that it does not
currently support drm protected wma files.
HTH,
