"It's no surprise that Apple scores first overall, first among MP3 players in the first year of ownership, first among flash players, first among mini hard-drive players, and first among big hard-drive players," notes PC Week. "The iPod's scores are among the highest in any category in the survey." Apple's players ranked either Very Good or Excellent in every category in the survey. "The race for second place is more interesting: Creative, Dell, and iriver battle for that position, the latter nearly matching Apple on sound quality, with Dell coming closer on ease of use." The magazine calls reliability the iPod's Achilles' heel. Nine percent of iPod users report that their units have needed repair in the past 12 months. Overall, only 3 percent of flash players needed repair service, compared with 7 percent of hard drive units. In related news, Apple also topped PC Week's ranking of wireless home network routers.
