If you dont own one yet then I think its an alright buy for music… however 2 hours battery life for video, hardly worth it now is it. Especially with the fact it charges via usb. The older iPods seemed expensive compared to others, and the nano pricing is a jock. I still think you are better off picking up something else, the 30gb HD5 for example. It has better sound and doesn’t come with nasty white headphones.

Done a feature on my main site anyways :-)

Apple stuff isn’t generally much more expensive than their competitors. Compare their PCs to Dell for instance and you’ll find they’re actually very competitive.

I quite like the look of the new iPod — especially if the battery life is actually as good as they say it is. That’s been my only gripe with previous versions to be honest. It is indeed £219 at the UK Apple store. I’d have to change the earphones for black ones though, obviously ;-)

iTunes 6 is out so soon cause of the video iPod, ready in time for christmas when they hope that every fool will own one :-) mind you if its £220 for a 30gb thats actually not a bad price, thats a shocker for Apple stuff.

Owen — you can stop iTunes picking up the xmas songs by un-ticking the tick box next to them in the library.

MY mp3 drive’s full, I need a new one, but it’s partitioned with loads of work, so it’s going to be a pain to make space free, maybe I’ll buy one of those network drive things… but that costs money.

I use winamp when playing stuff on my pc, its better than any other, windows media player is pure evil. I like to be able to easily create on the go playlists.

Anyways on topic, part one of my list is on my site now :-)

I usually use Winamp. Guess I’m in the minority here. But I do listen to albums quite often. I probably listen to an artist more often than I listen to an album though and I just shuffle up the songs.

I mostly listen to albums. In iTunes. All my CDs in one small Mac Mini shaped box. No disc swapping. It’s great.

I find that my Mystery iTunes Shuffle Best Ever Album is often ruined by the sudden and random inclusion of a Christmas song! I should work out how to remove that album from the shuffle but it would ruin the game of Rush-song Roulette. I love word play.
