It has a great hardware quality (at least, its playback part), and by installing the RockBox on it you obtain a very powerful software which you can even customize by yourself. It is also GNU/Linux-friendly, since the latest versions of RockBox feature the complete USB exchange support, and you can copy the files just like to a regular USB flash drive. I recommend this player to everybody, especially to the people who appreciate free software. My only doubt is whether these players are still available on the market or not. Sansa Clip+ is a rather old model.
