now first off the zen micro best one of them all i hope they make a full size it will be the ruler of all but past that its close between the ipod and zen touch no others come close the ipod has smaller size and the apple sales team, where the zen has battery life and price sadly neather has removible battries or radios

If you're thinking of getting an I-Pod Mini, get a Creative Zen Micro instead.

If you're thinking of getting an I-Pod Shuffle, get a Luxpro Super Tangent instead.

If you're thinking of getting an I-Pod, get a Creative Zen Xtra instead.

STILL thinkin' of getting an Ipod Shuffle

by hoserelder - 4/4/05 8:09 PM In reply to: if ur thinking of getting an ipod shuffle dont by cv4321

So suggestions I've heard so far:

Get a cheap Chinese knock-off
Get some other brand that isn't as easily compatible w/my 10+ gb of music (iTunes)
Or, if I MUST get an Apple product (?!?) get a Ipod Mini.

My responses are as follows:

1. I would never buy cheap disposable off-brand stuff, if only to save a couple bucks. Where would I take it if it quit working? I know of at least 6 retailers within 30 mins of me, that would help me out if an Ipod died on me.
2.AAC format is for Apple, iTunes and Ipods. I work in a CD store- I have access to literally TERRAbytes of music. Other brands' players allow for ease of use if 'buying' different formats of music. I don't buy my music, generally. I borrow it for "work-related research". I'll never be able to fit my entire collection onto one player, so why try?
3. Apple rocks. Nearly all music produced today has an Apple technology involved. Every professional musician I have ever spoken to, SWEARS by Apple. Video producing, as well.
People like to rag on whatever's popular, I think.

P.S: Anybody think about international compatibility? (Power wise) An Ipod shuffle needs a USB2 port to charge. No 240v/110v switcharoo to worry about.

aside from my first post about fms in mp3 players(a waste) iwould say i think the pod and shuffle are both pretty neat but so is the creative zen 40 gig and micro all four that i own right now so the only thing bad of all of them is the fm reception yours again spera_28@msn.com

Just because you have your 10GB MP3 collection sorted in I-Tunes doesn't mean you can't use it with other players.

If you've bought 10GB of music off of I-Tunes, you're some kind of lunatic.

10GB of Music

by mrmacfixit Moderator - 4/6/05 9:00 AM In reply to: Re: I-Tunes by

I looked and I looked, in this thread, but I couldn't find any mention of 10GB of music sorted in iTunes or of anyone saying they had purchased 10GB of music from the iTunes store.
Methinks you make things up.

MP3 players should have a screen.

The LuxPro Super Tangent is identical to the I-Pod Shuffle but with a screen and WMA support.

Why do you let yourselves be shafted by Apple like that?
