![]() Most MP3 players will last well over 12 hours, which is long enough for most people. While you can use an MP3 player without any display, as the iPod Shuffle shows, a display does make life easier. Ideally you want to have all the music you like to listen to while running on the player. However, it's better to have a much larger capacity so that you hear a variety of music over time. Even a 2 Gb MP3 player can hold 14 hours of good quality music, which is more than enough for most runs. You can't operate a touch screen without looking, and touchscreens don't generally work well with gloves or sweaty hands. Physical buttons are much easier to use while running than a touchscreen, which is awkward at best. While a larger MP3 player can be strapped to an arm or put in a pocket, smaller is better. For running, an ideal MP3 player should be small enough to clip on. ![]() Sound quality is more about your headphones than the player, especially when you're running.
