My MP3 player, it died on me! - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

Guys and girls,

I have a 1 1/2 year old Creative Zen V Plus MP3 player. Guess what? The screen frizzled, into a dark red tint and I couldn't see a thing inside.

Followed their instructions and even resetting the player. No use. It's all frizzled.

And worse of all, the warranty period had expired. Asked the Creative, they told me to just get a new one and don't bother fixing it.

Aaaaaack, I'm so whiney now without the MP3 player. Thankfully, I still have a 512MB Creative Nano which I got in 2007, and it still worked until now. Just only the small space, but I won't mind.

The earphone jack on my iPod has broken several times. djt820 has given the answer why.
