Seriously, go for a dedicated mp3 player. Battery life is really good and you get navigation that's optimised for music collections. You will probably find that you have to reconvert much of your library or at least retag it in order to get best value from any player, as most of them are optimised for artist/album/track directory layout and tagging.

Since I use FLAC as my PC storage format it was easy enough for me to make a playlist of all my classical tracks, set up a script that converts to MP3 and says "artist=composer, album=work, track=track number + opus number + performer + work + track" and most mp3 players cope reasonably well with that. It just takes a day or so to run and I needed a fair bit of spare disk space But the resulting 2-3GB of 128kbit/s mp3 work really well on most of the players that I've tried (there's only 5000 tracks, a bigger collection should also be fine).
