SpartanBlack Sansa Port - Opinion Wanted

[audio-i]

When I first made the SpartanBlack theme for the iPod video and the Gigabeat I didn't think it might look good on smaller screens, but Stephen Carrol and Michael Carr gave me another perspective with their versions, so I decided to make my own ports for the Sansa e200 and iPod Photo, trying to preserve the original idea and graphics as much as possible. I'm a little stuck on the Sansa version, I have the two options shown below for song info displaying. The first one tends to minimize the text scrolling, but might look a little cluttered. The second one is "cleaner" and seems to scroll more, so I really would thank a Sansa user opinion here 



Edit: I've included screenshots of inverted cases for the examples to have a better comparison

I personally find the first option -- despite having an extra line of text (or, perhaps, because of it) -- to be the more attractive and balanced-looking one.
