Are these serious replies?

 

[shortylickens]

None.
I dont like iPods.

As for personal media players that are not made by apple: My faves are my Duke Ellington and Miles Davis CD's. Every track. I dont even know which song is which. Thats what I normally listen to in my car.

EDIT:
Also Coltrane.

I don't know about ChaoZ but mine is, Flogging Molly kicks ass. But it's hard to tell if you'd like it when you don't give any examples of your kind of music.

Are these songs that can only be played on an Apple product?

1000 copies of this, but change the artist and title.

John Coletrane - Music For Lovers. The whole album is awesome, I have a lot of rap on my iPod, but some super mellow jazz is great. Also the 17 minute live version of Ain't No Sunshine by Issac Hayes. One of the most crazy live performances ever. Curtis Mayfield's greatest hits. Maybe Bad Leroy Brown, Car Wash Blues & Don't Mess With Jim all by Jim Croce. Throw in some Sublime and maybe a couple Rage Against The Machine tracks for good measure and you'll have a well rounded iPod. Oh, The Gambler by Kenny Rogers should be required on every iPod sold, such a bad ass song.

I am? Jim Croce is white, Sublime were white too and neither had much of a black following at all. And I doubt more than 200 black people in the world like Kenny Rogers.
