Default iPod versus other MP3 Players- Reliability?

My iPod stopped working. I went through all of the help steps on the
web. It's a Mini and less than 17 months after I got it, it quite.
Anyone know of the difference in quality between iPods and other
players. Seems that a 17 month life span does not warrant a $180
expenditure??

Also, anyone know about general repair costs?

Here in Oz the iPod warranty failure rate is about 1 in 3.
It has been that bad that any Post Office is now a warranty
return centre.

AFAIK it is a throw away item - like most cheap consumer
electronics.
