The Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra is Creative’s latest iteration of its high-capacity hard disk digital music player. The new version is identical to the recently released Zen NX, except it has a larger screen with green (rather than blue) backlighting. It’s still not as slick as Apple’s market-leading iPod, but the Zen Xtra’s lower price tag could attract those who yearn to take their multigigabyte music collections on the road.

Zen Xtra is a high-capacity, pocket-sized digital music player at an incredible price - 30% less than the Apple iPod! Zen Xtra doubles up as an external hard drive, not only will it store your entire music collection, you’ll have plenty of room for all your photos, documents or other data files. Plus, the anodized aluminum casing protects your 16,000 songs1 and files anywhere you go. With the 98dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio, your music will be loud and clear, and as good as any expensive hi-fi systems!

Do not buy from creative unless you want horrible customer support. Do not upgrade from their site without reading the forum first. They have left a driveware update that breaks the xtra and charges you the customer $25+ to fix. Otherwise this is a great mp3 player with a large amount of storage.
