Tally up best digital player ever

We have seen so many threads on what is the best digital player ever, but the responses end up in paragraph form as a result making it hard to get a good accessment of which player gets mentioned most or more often, which is ok, but let us see if we can get a thread going that will make it easy to tally up which player gets the most votes as the best player.. We all have different tastes let's keep in mind that the diversity is a plus and there is no need to make this a personal crusade. I think most of us would like to see a genuinely accurate picture of which is the best player. I don't like to live by rules but if I may suggest let's keep the response limited to just one name of the digital player company and model name or number. Now and then we can get a score card showing the results. I would like to start with what I consider best digital player: ................................................................................................................ ESOTERIC X-01
