Community poll forum: What kind of Apple iPod do you own?

I wouldn't have one as a present! Creative ZEN Rules...

that is what is my ipod problems drove me to back to my creative zens (micro and nomad extra) what the hell is so great about these players the fm sucks the playing is apain in the ass i load one playlist (cd) and listen better trying to get to the other songs i had on there that is why i LOVED my ipods however thats another gripe ive already posted

Creative Zen Vision M is the best. I copy my movies to it and have enough battery time to watch two movies, one on each leg of a flight and I can listen to the radio and record voice messages and many more things on the 30 GB memory!

I noticed they didn't even give not owning one as an answer.

I use the Zen Vision M, I was skeptical at first cause everyone use to say I-pods are the best. But while I was at Best Buy where I bought mine. The guy in charge of mp3 players showed me both the Zen Vision M and the I-pod equivalant. Both where the same price, but I can download music from anywhere with the zen. The biggest reason I got the Zen instead of the I-pod was because he showed me the quality of both mp3 player's videoes, the zen was of superior video quality

Microsoft is going to sell these iPod imitators at a loss for a year or two.
You have FM, which is limited in what the station plays which is the the VERY REASON we invested in mp3 players in the FIRST place!
They have a sharing arrangement among the connected Zune players which is another form of DRM. The Zune will be in direct competition with other players using Microsoft's DRM which will cause the weaker player makers in the market to fold or merge.
In the meantime, Apple will not stand still and will continue with updates and improvements to the iPod. I hope frustration and futility are two things
Microsoft enjoys because their plate is going to be full of them!
Microsoft is good at selling software licenses on crappy software with HUGE security holes and collecting huge fees to fix their garbage software with patch after patch after patch.
Perhaps they shouldn't quit their day job. At least they're getting PAID!

why is the 80 gig the 5th generation, and I love your devotion to DRM music. Your the clasic Apple bunghole. Apple updates a small app and then calls it a new gen, you fall right into into it. Your a piece of work. Obviously not
a true techybut think you are, just like most apple ginuses. (network losers) just like the geek squad ,, just like people with no certs but think they know the world of pc's or even apples. Typical internet shrubs. " I know the internet or my iPod or phone so therefore I know computers..." Sorry you are so lost you pansy wansy whiners. You are EXACTLY the reason why viiri are launched and you this is why Apple is not the viiri free anymore. Crack an apple just as fast as an apple,(look it up) I'm a SuSe user myself.

X5 baby!!!!!!!!!
Flac, Ogg, video, recorder, mic, FM, alarm WAY better sound quality.

I'm confused...if it's mp3, ogg, m4a, or other files recorded at around 128kbps, how can the sound be noticably better on any device?

I have a Ipod shuffle and never been able to make it work..so it sits on my dresser..

I own a 5g ipod (original 5g) white 30gb video.

I only use it to tune out people who judge others harshly....like you.

Well said, but we are won't get many to agree. Think about what forum we are in. Techyville? I do enjoy my music when ever I can. I try not to use it if it makes people around me feel uncomfortable. ipods are very trendy right now but there is one thing for sure. It will change with the next trendy device, in short order. This is what keeps these companies ceo's living very comfortable. Trickle the toys out just fast enough to keep us buying. I don't own an ipod. I have a very cheap and older gerneric flash player with no DRM. It works for me but it may not be everyone.

I am that sales rep who's 5-6 hours traveling most daze. I listen to audio books -- not tape or CD, but on my Creative Nomad JB zenXtra 30GB. It's easy as "music" to download and much more "constructive".

Why don't you free us from you I beg you LOL
