    IPods... Are they the best MP3 player?

    I don't need 60 gigs to play music. All I want is an MP3 player that can hold maybe 10 gigs and has AM/FM.

    Are IPods 'the' mp3 player?

    They can go up to $250+ I have a feeling by next summer they'll drop to like $99.

      They won't be selling them for $99 anytime soon.

      I just picked up a few discontinued 10 gig ones from CompUSA a few weeks back for $129.

      That's as close as you're going to get. They can't keep the new ones in stock around here...so don't bank on a price drop.

      Spend you some brain.

          dell dj is getting awesome reviews but its expensive, ipod only have a year battery life and then u have to pay 99 to get a new battery. Still it is a good player but definately not the only one out there.

            For sound quality Ipod rules. I've had some bad experiences with Apple products and support but I will give the Ipod its due.

                  I-Rivers are much better machines, but hardly anybody knows it cos IPod was marketed so well

                        I'll check out I-Rivers.

                        Now that I know that the IPod battery only has a year lifespan that sucks ass big time.

                        $99 for a battery? Most kids can't afford that shit. Yet they'd probably spend more on regular batteries.

                        I suspect soon China will have multiple knock offs of some sort and drop the prices.

                          I used to run with two other brands of MP3 players, but I always had problems with both of them. Then I got an iPod and I LOVE IT! I would totally recommend one if you are thinking about it. I have no complaints at all.

                            I love my iPod. I've had it for 2 years, and I haven't had to replace the battery.

                              i've owned several, the ipod kicks ass, period.

                              awesome interface, great design, very sleek, great sound... and you can also use it to storage large files, photo's, videos, everything.

                                I love my Creative Labs Zen Micro. It cost exactly the same as a ipod mini, but:
                                - Bigger harddrive (5GB/2,500 songs)
                                - Is smaller in size
                                - Has a removable battery (ipod doesnt)
                                - Has better battery life (12hours)
                                - Has a am/fm radio
                                - Has a voice recorder
                                - Has a calender/phonebook/organizer
                                - Sound quality is just amazing

                                Plus I got a extra battery when I bought mine. They are giving them as a promotion.

                                At $249, I just dont see a better deal.

                                  I have the 20 gig iPod and it's amazing. It was a bit expensive, but it's an excellent music player with tons of features.

                                              How do you remove a song from Ipod?

                                              I just got a 40 gig Ipod, and while the documentation is sparse in the "manual", I'm sure it's on the cd somewhere (what I'm looking for).

                                              To those in the know:
                                              In the meantime, how do you delete/remove a song/songs from the Ipod once you transferred it there?

                                              Thanks!

                                                The touch pad is actually better than the scroll wheel IMO.

                                                (I've had a ipod mini, and regular ipod before)

                                                Plus, you would give up the extra harddrive space, the radio, removable and longer life battery and everything else just for a scroll wheel? I sure wouldn't.

                                                If you try the Zen Micro's touch pad, you'll see what I mean. You can access all the menus and scroll through songs, albums, playlist without ever taking your finger off of it. It's awesome.

                                                  The Creative and the IRiver are much better players.

                                                    I like my iPod but it's the older one. Kind of wish I could have the mini instead.

                                                          In the meantime, how do you delete/remove a song/songs from the Ipod once you transferred it there?
                                                          I've heard you can't!

                                                              iriver makes a good mp3 players with flash ram and on a hard drives. All models cary a friendly control interface.

                                                              ipod makes some getting used to, other than that it is a nice product too.

                                                                I just paid $399 for my 40GB iPod about 3 months ago and have the iPod Alpine interface for my car. Now if you want AM/FM tuner in one also you won't get it with a iPod so you'll have to look at another brand.
