I have some music on my phone, but generally I prefer to keep them separate and listen to podcasts more on it. So on the go I've been using Fiio players the last number of years, and Cowon before that, but I still have two "working" iPods. My one from '07 had a hard-drive failure 3-4 years ago, so with the remaining two one has a battery that is toast, and the other only outputs audio from the headphone jack in one ear, so both are only really usable at home via USB. Before using iPods I had Creative Labs products, but those are long-defunct.
