Most torrent sites seem to provide shows and films in a compatible format, but a few you'll need to convert (but nothing compared to the ipod where you'll have to convert all). And there's plenty of room on the 30gb for movies.
Screen quality is great. Apparently superior to ipod.
It remembers where you were in a film too even if you stop, listen to music, then return. I don't know if that's usual, but I find that really useful.
It's true that it doesn't do drag and drop easily, but I find the software fine to use. You can select tons of things at once and let it get on with transferring them.
In the rare instance it's crashed, I've not lost any files either (just needs a quick restart with a pin shoved in the tiny hole and you're back to where you left it).
And it's pretty.
The only downside I found was the lack of a mains charger (and they seem really expensive to buy). You have to get in the habit of connecting it to the PC for charging, before you go to bed!

wow thanks for that, and welcome to the fourm. (very helpful first post).
I really want one of these now, plus I read on another site that you can use a psp charger to charge the creative so I could use the hubbie's charger from his psp rather than the pc. I saw some user's piccys on amazon.com of the screen and buttons lit up and I agree it does look really pretty and crystal clear too. :grin:
