I use a Sansa Clip 2GB too, and I'm very happy with it! FYI, in case you didn't notice, there are interesting threads in some forums (links below) about playlists and sound volume: http://forums.sandisk.com/sansa/board?board.id=clip http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=119 (I posted there as 'kukrapok') I personally use fapg to create m3u playlists, and a custom script to generate playlists recursively. To me the sound volume is way too loud, and its minimum even starts too loud: listening at min volume settings, even w/ custom EQ set to minimum values, is a bit too loud for night/bed ambiance. Of course this also depends on the headset you use, but w/ my 3 sets volume is generally too loud. What I also know is that people who want to play at higher volumes, have to upgrade the firmware and enable the volume "high" profile in the prefs (this adds 8 more volume levels). Firmware version and location might cause different volume limitations too (and sometimes it's easy to trick it).
