Well, here is an interesting topic, please give your MP3 player button settings, and explain the logic behind them. As for mine, it's a bit strange:

I use the free version of PocketMusic which is very limited in my options, but nonetheless:

Play: Button 1
Stop: Record
Pause: Tracker Down
Next Track: Tracker Up
Precious Track: action
Display on/off: button 2

here is my logic, I recently got a hold of a sena case, which snaps shut, but when in my pocket, has side cutouts fro the jogdial and the record button, fro this reason, I decked out all of those with options, that way with a single finger (two to push in on the jog dial, one to push in, one to hold the other side of the unit) I can control songs.

down is pause, that is becasue the downward motion is the easiest, so if I need to hear something, I can pause it, then push pause again to restart. Next, up, the next easiest motion, is nexttrack, if I am looking for a particular song, I can just hold it, and browse through. Pushing on the jog dial, the third easiest is if I need to go back.

Stop I rarely use, so put it on the harder to reach record button. Button 1 and button 2, since they can only be accessed with the case open, are screen toggle (so no accidental toggling, and no accidental restarting of tracks)

please post yours.
