Please suggest an MP3 player for me to transfer files from archive.org

Good Morning DU.
I've been listening to live Grateful Dead concerts on www.archive.org .
I want to be able to transfer these mp3 files on to a mp3 device.

Can anyone suggest a mp3 device? I can't seem to figure out how to get these mp3 files onto my ipod, so I am looking for a non-apple device.

Thanks for any help-

Peace

I am looking for something that I could store a huge database of music files. Barring that, I could use a few smaller devices.

Thanks for the reply

because I picked up this one about a week ago. ToysRUs is selling it for $14.98. I wanted something that would play mp3 podcasts downloaded from the web and this works just fine. For $15, it's perfect because I don't care if I break it or lose it during a workout. Transferring media consists of plugging it into a USB port (where it charges itself) and simply dragging files.
