Would like to buy an MP3 player with high quality and drag and drop support.

None of this "iTunes" crap. If I wanted to use Apples rubbish software I would use it, I don't need to be made to. Also, FLAC support would be nice. I was looking at the Sansa Clip+ which looked awesome, just wanted some outside views. Thanks.
Sansa Clip+ is good, as is the Fuze. I have a Fuze v2, so no Rockbox, still a very nice player.
I hear good things about the Sansa Clip+
I think I might order the 8GB tonight then, thanks!
I honestly would say look for an refurbished Zen Vision M or W.
I have (By which I mean, my brother has) a Vision:M.
It is a good player, by no means the best looking player but it is packed full of features without the propriety software issues. - Can't remember ever trying FLACs on mine though.
If you can get hold of a cheap ipod or other supporting player you could flash it with Rockbox. (Which does support FLAC)

Fuze v2 has rockbox, I've had a v1 and v2 Fuze. Both work great.
You need to make your own bootloader for it though, it's not hard.

Follow the manual installation.
Too late ;) ordered a sansa clip+. It was cheap as hell (one weeks wages) anyway. I'm not too bothered about rockbox, the clip interface looks decent and responsive, there is folder browsing and I can shove stuff on it from my Linux box. I'm happy.
My only worry is the power output, it looks rather small. I'll just have to wait and see!
Thanks guys.
Fantastic!
It arrived a couple of days ago, and I was very disappointed in the volume output. I looked it up on the internet, and found that due to European laws, the volume was capped at a fairly low volume. So I changed the language to English/United States and now it is perfectly loud. So if you have/get one of these and are in the UK, don't use Europe as the region, it only makes it quieter!
Also, I ordered Koss PortaPros to go with it and they are a great combination. I'm pleased.
