• CNET has a review of the Toshiba Gigabeat S MES30VL -- which got a lot of attention at CES -- and it's positive enough to make on think it might actually be a minor iPod-killer. Reviewer James France gives props for simple delivery of PMC software, its breadth of file formats, the FM tuner and video-out jack, and the compatability with WMA subscription services as well as the Starz Vongo movie subscription service. Points were taken away for the average screen and the "confusing" buttons on the side of the device, though time and experience tends to solves those problems. (Via Endgadget)

• Speaking of slight iPod killers, SanDisk has become the number two seller of digital music players in America.

• A post at Digital Music News reminded Coolfer about Songbird, a Firefox-based music player that was mentioned here a few months ago. The site is up and downloads are available. Take a look at the features page. Songbird supports MP3, AAC, OGG, FLAC, WMA, and others, and it can play web pages as a playlist.
