What's the big deal with ipods, period?

Having owned various mp3 players from various companies, i've ended up sticking w/ apple. Although they have less features than comparable players, a few things stick out to me. They just plain ass work well, very user intuitive operation, they integrate well (iTunes works perfectly for my needs), and they just look damn good.

For me, thats enough to make me a very happy customer.

iTunes sucks a$$

I use it everday...

that does not change the fact that it sucks ass

no, the truth is that itunes does not suck for me, and that you are really an asshole that has nothing new to say about itunes or ipods...

it's the same lame rant in every apple thread...

just give it up already...

Okay. I went and checked out the Nano in person. It's an okay piece of kit... But it has one SEVERE flaw.

It's pocket-stuff size. Most normal humans have loose change in one pocket and car keys in the other (not counting metrosexuals, people who are in debt so damn far they havn't seen cash for 5 years and just use credit for EVERYTHING under the sun [though this is, admittedly, the iPod's primary market], and women with purses). Do you know what house keys and loose change would do to the finish on that thing? The shuffle was a piece of plastic crap. Can't make it look any worse than it already does. The other iPods were big enough to force people to keep them places other than their pants pockets, thus saving these expensive devices from the wrath of small metal objects. If you've ever had a daily-carry USB flash drive, you know what I'm talking about.

or you coudl just bot put anything else in the pocket you put your mp3 player in

ive owned 3 mp3 players, A rio a Creative Zen xtran and I now have a iAudio x5L, they all got the pocket to themselfs, never used the cover, never even purchased one

change goes in the right pocket with keys and cell phone, mp3 player get the left one

Not many keys, eh?

7 and a speed pass

Weaksauce. I have more than 7 *CAR KEYS*

why? you only need 2 - one to start it and the one for thr trunk

you can only drive one car at a time so having more then 1 cars keys on the same ring is pointless

i have
House
Apt front Door
Apt front Dead Bolt
Apt Door
Car Start
Car Trunk
Camp
Speed pass

That's why they sell cover slips for $29 that only probably cost $0.01 to make. Huge profits for them and people can live knowing that their precious investment is protected.

Whoa. It blows my mind that the cover doesn't protect the screen. What's the logic behind that?

You have so many keys that they need to be on two keyrings and in two different pockets? Were you in the 3rd Matrix movie too?
