I needed an armband for by Transcend player to use at the gym because the player came with just a silicone cover and a neck strap (talk about skimping on accessories!). This armband fits the bill. Things I like about it are:
- easy to adjust armband with a stretchy strap that connects both sides to keep them in close proximity, making the Velcro easier to engage. It also adjusts large enough to fit my husbands 14" biceps.
- two stretchy storage pockets, one zippered and one with a Velcro closure. Either one easily holds my JVC ear buds while still in the travel case.
- central compartment easily holds my player while it is still in the silicone cover
- it has an opening on the bottom of the main compartment to fit headphone jacks for most players.
The one drawback, the top of the main compartment does not have a closure. It is just a slot to slip the player into. If the band was shaken while upside down the player could slip out. This issue can be overcome by leaving headphones with an L connector plugged into the player at all times. Personally, I haven't found it to be much of an inconvenience.

I bought the Sportline Armband from Wal-Mart (not knowing Amazon had it at the time of my impulse buying). This is GREAT for my 8GB Zen. My Zen is the size of a credit card and about 0.6 inches thick. I have my Zen inside of its silicone cover and then I slipped it snuggly inside of this Armband. The earphone hole lines up with the opening in the fabric. The USB hole doesn't line up with a hole, but I still fit mine in through the earphone hole and guide it to the USB connection...you can see it real good through the clear window.
The armband doesn't lay out flat like my other armband...it has an elastic joining piece so that when you put it on your arm it is secured as you pull the velcro together (no trying to pin it down with your arm while you tighten in order to not drop everything). It's so nice that I just keep my Zen in the armband. It also props up when it is not being worn, so I can watch the screen without holding the player. It has 2 pockets too...one zippered and one "hidden" velcro pocket. I put my headset in one and probably could put cash, key, I.D., etc. in each pocket too. The pockets are real roomy and everything is real stretchy and soft.
If I have to mention something negative...I noticed, when I was exercising at the gym, that a little moisture (from body heat) built up on each end of the Armband under the plastic window. This is after about 2 hours of straight exercise, though. It didn't damage my player...I just reached through the opening and wiped the moisture away. Not a big deal, and it doesn't get all over...just a little on the ends.
I like this product so much that I may buy another one for fear that they may stop making these for some odd reason...you know how that is when they have a good thing and then discontinue. Anyway, I hope my review helped you make a decision.
