2 real requirements

drag and drop - I don't want to have to use itunes or zune software. Just drag my files to my mp3 player.

large hard drive - I want all of my current and future music to fit. preferably over 100gb.

Any recommendations?

for the zune, you can drag and drop into the software, or sync a folder and when you add something to the folder the zune will automatically add it to the zune next time you sync

No. iPods are not drag and drop; at least out of the box. I know I'm too used to using Windows Explorer instead of 3rd party software to transfer music to my Sansa to do anything different; it's idiot-proof, fast, and requires no new software. The 2 players you linked to don't even fit his storage requirement.

There's not much better than this.

There aren't a lot of options for that size range. Not even Cowons offer more than 80GB of storage, else I would have recommended one of those.

iPod + iPod manager plugin for foobar = win.

Just get an iPod to be honest, use Ipod Manager plugin for Foobar if you don't want to use iTunes, although I find iTunes is really quick and easy to use.

That storage requirement really limits you to an iPod, Zune, or Archos. If you also want pocketability, you probably don't want the Archos.
