Why so many iPod haters?

[Schadenfroh]

I have found that it is actually a fine MP3 player, having used RCA, iRocks, Sandisk, and Creative Labs MP3 players in the past. I find it to be much better built and i have yet to have it lock up on me. Although it does lack a couple of features (voice recording mainly, could care less about FM tuner for the radio stations here suck).

I think they are awesome products.

I love iPods and I think they're a great product when I use my friend's
In fact, Im trying to buy one right now

 

[sigs3gv]

I hate it when people are so hyped by the product, they cannot provide thoughtful pros and cons on that product.
Chances are, >85% of the population at my school will support iPod for the sole reason of "others have it".

Edit:
Personally, I think they aren't that bad. I use a shuffle as a thumbdrive/music player.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I don't hate the iPod.

It's cool to hate the iPod. I want to be cool.

as an mp3 player, its fine. it has its pros and cons.

what I don't like about it is that it is a fashion items as much as it is an mp3 player. And I just don't like fashion.

I love my iPod. I don't understand why people hate them.. most of the haters have never even used them.

Because anything made by Apple is bad. Just like anything made by Microsoft is bad.

 

[Fenixgoon]

where's all of the above? it's an overpriced, overhyped, 90% of the people won't use it to its potential product

 

[Mrfrog840]

overpriced, overhyped, and EVERYONE FRIGGIN HAS ONE LIKE THE RAZR!!!!!!

 

[Shadowknight]

I think it's a neat device, but I would never get one. I'm particuarly sensitive to sound, so I wouldn't be comfortable having earbuds playing music in my ears. Headphones would be too awkwarrd to carry around, I'd worry about dropping or losing it. Oh, and it's pricey, and you can't (easily) replace the battery yourself. But mostly, I wouldn't have a use for any MP3 player.

It's basically the electronic version of the social trend whereby a group of "outsiders" desides that they want to be different by not being the same as everyone else, and grow to loath thsoe that are "the same" even though they themselves, having grown in numbers, are no longer unique.

People hate Ipods because they want to fit in.


Oh the irony.

Yeah, liberals tend to hate anything made by the big, evil corporations

As a quasiliberal libreatarian librarian who supports conserrvatives' right to remain conservative, I can honestly say that me and my people are against raddishes.

They are red, really bitter, and utterly disgusting.

I find it absolutely appalling that they even get 3/5 of a carrot man's vote.

I say we blend them to hell...

[quackerww]

Some reason I can't have direct sound into my ears. It gives me ear pain...

Well since it's also cool to own an iPod does that mean you're twice as cool if you own it and hate it at the same time?

 

[Mickey Eye]

I like my iPod, but I have enough music that I actually needed more than 20gigs... and unfortuantly they stopped the 40gig before I could get one. However I can probably fill the remaing 22gigs on mine... aslong as it doesn't die first.

I know it's not the only large capacity mp3 out there but it's they only one I could save pictures to.

 

[buzzsaw13]

I had a 3rd Gen Ipod, really didn't like when the battery crapped out on me.
