but thats what you get for buying into hype. iPods are garbage compared to the decent media players. The biggest players right now, iPod and Zune, both are only average devices. Try doing some actual research on specs. They might not save you from getting zapped, but they will help you through the agony of high voltage burn by giving you a better sound to noise ratio, higher battery life and more features. Ok, I’ll stop now because I sound like an ad sales person. Ugh.

i love the white stripes one

Was Jason Bunch listening to Ride The Lightning?

I said a candy-cane striped iPod!

I didn’t say to bling it out with paris Hilton suck beads! *sigh* No one ever reads these things!

Bad RS! Bad!

the stripes ipod should have gone with the classic peppermint swirl design, centered around the click wheel thing… i think the icky thump pod looks rather lame.

ummm…am I the only one who thinks that running around in a thunderstorm isn’t exactly the smartest thing to do in the world, Ipod or no Ipod?

Apple should make a zeppelin ipod. It would be perfect since zeppelin does not want their music broken down to singles.

What’s an iPod going to do for me? My vinyl and most CD’s trump those iPod things any day of the week. My components are simply superior. Do you copy, Apple?

Rich you prehistoric a hole. Whats an iPod going to do for you? How bout put every one of your CDs at your fingertips while your driving. -Or walking if you haven’t bought into the whole “car” thing yet.

Hey Rich, just get one of these, it’s even got a aux. input for yr. turntable. Get yourself some electrostatic speakers and you’ll be good to go.

Why would Apple release iPods with a click wheel now that we have the iPhone.

Don’t worry about it “TC.” I’ve got a “car.” And I’m not tone deaf as you appear to be.

ohmyholyfuck i want that bowie iPod!

SO heres a question i pose to you “Rich”…what if im driving and want to find a cd from my 200 cd full case…isnt it much easier to scroll through my ipod? just a question…but i do think your a moron

“Dookie,” for me anyway, it has nothing to do with the convenience of a proprietary system and everything to do with sound quality. They compress those files to a point where the soundstage is thin (i.e., it sounds like sh__). I’d even put my 30+ year old FM tuner up against one of those silly little boxes any day of the week and come up smiling. I could care less about having 200 CD’s at my finger tips. If it sounds like sh__, why bother?

You are taking cheap shots because you don’t have anything intelligent to say, or you represent a company that cares only about the ole mighty dollar and doesn’t give a hoot about people’s hearing.

Touche…to an extent. First off, im neither of the 2 things at the bottom of your last post “rich”…however i believe most people find the sound quality way more than fine for their car/ stereo/headphones…and the ease of having x amount of songs at your hands seems to outweigh the fact that the sound quality is somewhat reduced…but isnt that why itunes also released DRM free downloads? But to each his own…you can be happy with your cd brick and ill take my ipod

Great,

Just another way of lining Gene Simmon’s pockets

If only they were real, and if I hadn’t gotten a new one in October…
But hen I’d have the tough decision of going to the Bowie or the Prince one…

Oh well. Clever work, RS!
