Wow... Seriously, you might need professional help. With enough therapy and medicine perhaps you can leave your reality and rejoin the rest of us...

Sure Gurck, humor me...point it out? Or...Ill save you the time, you got nothing...

Have a good night Gurck..

I pointed it out more than once, even went so far as making a controversial example when you seemed not to understand. Your utter refusal to acknowledge it really does lead me to believe you have some serious issues to deal with.

No, you didn't point it out, and your refusal to do so along with your consistant personal attacks are quite sad.

I made a comment along the lines of "those who call names on the internet are probably stupid kids" and you claim I'm insulting all ipod owners. It's all in the thread, it's been pointed out, and you essentially sit there like the 12 year old you are going "lalalalala I can't hear you!"

Holy Thread Hijack!

You've had two HD-based players die on you, from an otherwise reliable brand name. Methinks the problem lies between keyboard and chair. You might really want to go with a Flash-based player this time.

Me <-- no problems w/my Creative Zen Xtra (HD-based) in 9 months, takes it everywhere BUT running.

Agreed, the 40gb version is also an extremely good value.


doh. we both meant the iAudio M3, which is indeed extremely sexy. thinner/lighter than an ipod, and longer battery life too.

Then it wouldn't be free, my uncle hooks me up with Creative stuff ;)

get another creative again. There are alot of people out there that dont have problems with them. You really think that there is mp3 player thats perfect? I read more ipod threads about them breaking than creative. Iriver is supposed to be good too.

<--- couldnt be happier that i sold my ipod for a creative zen.

I have a 20Gb iPod (not bought by my parents) and personally its always been good, only downside is that the battery runs down when your not using it but what do you expect from a li battery. That said I find the interface is great and although it forces you to use iTunes I have never looked back since switching from winamp.

The G3 stops at 2GB, and 1GB for Europe/Americas. For 40GB, I think you mean the M3(L).
I think the G3 looks great, though, and removes LI batteries from the equation.

If you harddrive is failing, perhaps your workout is too harsh for HD based players? If so, Ipod isnt gonna be much more reliable...

No kidding huh?

You're right man, if anyone should stop it's me. You're a funny fellow. I'd insult you again but you've done such of good job of doing it yourself that I couldn't even match up to your work.

I just got the Archos gmini xs200. I really like it alot. It is around the same size as many mini hd players, but has a 20 gig capacity. Researching on the internet doesn't give it justice for it's size. It is so small that it can fit in the change pocket (or whatever you call it) of my jeans.

You don't use any software for it, just explorer, the on player software organizes it into a library, or you can just browse the folders, which is sweet.

I don't know how reliable it is, since I only got it recently, *crosses fingers*

I seriously think that an iPod killed Gurck's mother, there is no other reason he could possible get so angry over the subject.

Before this thread basically went into Gruck's DMZ.... just get the ipod. It works great. It's not the best player, it's not the worse player. It's easy to use and the price is right.

But..don't you know? The iPod is horrendously expensive compared to other mp3 players in its class. :roll:

I think you can roll your eyes right up your "you-know-what". Looks pretty damn steep to me!

Still can't figure out why...
