Dell’s new MP3 player is likely to give you “DJ vu.” It looks nearly identical to the first-generation model, albeit a little smaller, lighter, and decidedly sleeker. It is designed to work with Microsoft Windows Media Audio (WMA) and MP3 formats. The straightforward, functional design isn’t as chic as the Apple iPod’s or the Creative Zen Touch’s, and it can’t match the features on enthusiast players such as the iRiver H320. But at $249 for the 20GB model or $299 for the newly released 30GB version, the Dell DJ undercuts most of the competition, making it a great no-frills player for those who prefer WMA.

The DJ 30 plays the usual MP3 and WMA files at up to 320 Kbps and supports WMA DRM for purchased music and subscription services, including Napster to Go. Although it does not support Audible, TXT, and some of the extra formats that the other guys do, the DJ 30 is priced below most other players in the large hard drive category for people who want a lot of storage for not a lot of money.
