Yes Rafael, portable music players differ between themselves, just
like computer parts, in a lot of things, like raw SQ, EQ features,
formats supported, among other things.

There are quite some brands with good players, but even in the same
brand you can have a good product and a bad product.

Overall, I find that for people who are on a budget and want to get a
cheap yet good performing audio player, the Sansa Clip+ is a great
budget player, with an average cost of $50 for the 4/8GB version (it
also has a card slot for more expansion).
For higher quality ones, you have players like Samsung P3, Cowon S9/J3
and iPod 5.5G, which are very good media players (these also do
video), and then there are the high end players that go for $500 and
more, but they're the highest portable audio quality there is, and can
even be used as soundcards on a pc :) but given the price, I'll leave
those out, since you asked for price to performance ratio.

Again, the Sansa Clip+ is a very good budget player, and both Samsung
P3 and Cowon S9 or J3 are wonderful players. I only mentioned iPod for
their popularity, as their audio quality is alright, inferior to both
Samsung and Cowon, and they're a pain in the ass to connect to a pc
and sync the files, they can't be used like a regular mass storage
device (like a usb drive).
