My local bestbuy has the new ones out already, I would recomend just getting one of the new ones, ipod classic because it holds alot of stuff and it is relativly cheap.

I would recommend an Archos 404 instead of a regular iPod, it's cheaper, has a larger screen, holds the same 30gb, and plays videos, as well as view pictures.

Plus the brushed metal finish I think looks nicer than an iPod with fingerprints all over it.

I think the 8g nanos play videos now, dont they?

jaycob533 · 2007-09-19, 04:28 AM

an 8gb is about $250 and a 30gb is going to be about $300 depending where u go.(trust me i used to obsesed with ipods until i got mine 2 yrs later.)

Also keep in mind that if you do decide to get an ipod, you will have to get itunes as well. That's not bad, but in order to load your ipod, you HAVE to use itunes. There is really no way around it. Itunes will make another copy of your music for its format. Unless you get rid of it once you load it, you will have two copies of the same song on your hard drive, which will eat the space way fast.

It only makes a copy if you check, "Copy files into iTunes Music Folder" in the preferences. It's right next to "Keep iTunes Music Folder Organzied". And it doesn't change the format when it copies it unless you tell it to change the format.

Personally I like that iTunes keeps all of the files neatly organized and readily accessible.

So that's really a silly thing to hold against the software or apple. There are other valid criticism to be made but yours is not one of them.

Most people that like to rant against apple do so mostly out of spite.

I say go creative or Zune. A bunch of people use them and love them. They really are great and much cheaper than an I-pod. I have only heard good things about both, but have only used a creative personally. So if you want a zune do your research! The battery on I-pods is quite terrible and cost a nice dent to replace.
