What do you think of iPods?
Personally, I think they are like any other MP3 player.

They don't play MP3s.

They don't play MP3s.yes, they do.

they do play mp3's, your iPod just doesn't want to listen to your commands Heyyou27

I wouldn't waste my money on an ipod.

I have one, and i think it's pretty good. They go a bit overboard with the memory space (eg, 30gb and 60gb) but they're different to others as they have iTunes and it has games on it too :D. The only bad thing about iTunes is that you have to pay.

you Can pay, you don't need to.

They can make you go deaf, I think I have hearing loss; I can't really tell.

I thought the video and nano ones had a maximum decibel level for volume on it

Now they do, older ones don't

My g/f has an iPod now. I have to get use to her saying "WHAT?! WHAT DID YOU SAY?!?"

The nanos are the stupidest things ever.

no, the shuffle's are the stupidest ones ever: no display, it's a usb that's made for only playing music, the trick is that you want to download the songs onto it in the order you want to listen to them because you don't have to listen to them in the shuffled mode

Both are stupid.

i didnt really want to buy one cause the price, but i found a 4gb ipod nano at my school so i just have that, and i like it.

Yeah, experts said that you should only listen to them an hour a day, they can damage their ears, considering their powerful decibel system.

of course the newer ones have a max that doesn't do damage when you listen to it for a normal amount of time

My friend has an ipod shuffle... its dumb looking. I saw this one skit on Mad TV where there were two girls and they were talkiing about the new invention, "Ipads" I thought it was hilarious.

the iFlea one was sweet, one song in this flea player that's like a tic-tac and has a tic-tac like container for all of your fleas and the flea collar and the flea backpack and all of the accessories were so much larger than the player itself

yeah, that one is cool, too

An iPod is just like any other mp3 player. Since it's popular, people like heyyou27 hate it because it's trendy, or you can buy a similar product for half the price.

Half the price is pretty drastic. Its pretty competitively prices for its features and its storage.

I hate it because there are similar products that offer more for a better price.

The 4GB ipod nano's suggested retail price is still $249.99. Do you recall the price at it's release? $249.99

if you saved up 50 more bucks and lived in Delaware you could've gotten 26 more gigs and video capability

Usually if you want to hear someone just have one ear listening to the I-pod and the other ear well, listening to what's around you.

The Creative Labs MP3 players are probably the best on the market. And yet people waste their money on a crappier iPod just because of its name.

the best thing is the Archos 100 gig player, it plays music, movies, and all sorts of stuff on it, the price is awesome for it

The 4gb Ipod nano is the only one that is overpriced. Almost all 30gb MP3 players are 299.99 just like the iPod. Same goes for all 20gig's being 249.99.

Never heard of it. But then again, I don't live in Japan.

I personally bought a Archos back when the iPod first launched. It is a nice player but it does have its own faults. First off its no where as portable as the iPod and the UI is slow and hard to manage. Also after a while the battery starts to dysfunction and if you keep it on charge to long the battery will heat up and melt the LCD screen.

I seriously dont know why anyone would have an mp3 player that can hold over 3000 songs, I dont even know of that many songs, so useless. Sorry just my 2 cents.

^He has a point there.^

I have around 60 gigs of mp3's on my hard drive. I like to listen to a broad range of music, so I purchased a high capacity mp3 player (30 gigs) filled it to the brim and now I use that while driving instead of taking the time to burn cd's and having to switch them out. I can drive around and instantly have access to half of my library of music.

I hated burning cd's and having about 50 of them filled to capacity

I think you are right they do go over board on the memory, but I think only the 60GB version. Because to be able to hold videos it needs to have a big memory. That is why I bought the 30GB version

I like having that feature with my iPod. Connecting it to the car saves time, money, and it is just like having every song you want (almost) on 1 thing instead of having tons of CD's.

I never thought of it that way? That will come to mind when I buy my next MP3.

Since I have napster, I have about 20 gigs of music on my player, I've only had it for a month or so.

I thought the video and nano ones had a maximum decibel level for volume on it

You can set it to do that, but it doesn't have to have it if you don't want it.

Yes, I also think the shuffles are the stupidest things ever. I had one and hated it within the first hour.

Do you mean it can hold 20GB or has 20GB of music on it right now?

Wow. How queer. /sarcasm

hmm lets compare prices shall we?

Ipod Nano-about $200, holds 14 hours
Creatve Zen Nano-about $50, holds 18 hours (which is what i have)

Do you mean it can hold 20GB or has 20GB of music on it right now?

It holds 40 gigs, I have 20 gigs on it already.

I like my nano, it's small and easy to put in my pocket, and functions as it needs to. That's all I need.

Yes i know that.

I honestly hate it when all mp3 players are called iPods by the limp-brained, illiterate masses. I personally have a year-old 60GB Creative Zen Xtra. It's got quite a few scrapes and abrasions from dropping it on the road/sidewalk so many times, and it's huge, but I don't care. It was cheaper than a 40GB iPod, and had everything I needed.

It's almost full.

nice. you have a point there.

but you actually can't really say it's full of good stuff that you listen to on a regular basis can you? with the huge mp3 players, they just have so much space that you want to fill all of it up and say, ha, mine's full!

I don't really care about how many songs I have on my MP3 player.
