    Default ipod owners of the world unite!

    And laugh at those with CD players

    The point is, mp3 player or not?

    I got my ipod this morning after my last one (not an ipod) broke twice in a row .

    I have better things to spend $250.00 (Cnd) on.

    (PS: I'll probably be getting one in the summer )

    I've been thinking of getting one for a while now, what with nearly 3 gig of legal music on my PC. It just seems like a heck of a lot of money to spend on a small white object with tacky earphones.

    Ah well. I suppose I'll give in to the majority, eventually.

    I want one, but CD burning is fine for me until the price drops...I'm not willing to spend $200+ dollars when I already have my music on CD anyway.

    Plus I actually buy CDs every now and then. Yeash...remember that? Buying CDs? I know thats kinda old skool but I still do it from time to time.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    I still use my old Creative Nomad Muvo 64MB MP3 player / keychain. I only own it because it was free.

    I still buy CDs too...I like having the inserts. But my car doesn't have a CD player and I spend a lot of time in my car and I hate listening to the radio, it drives me insane. So in a sense I HAD to get an Ipod, for my own sanity, see? Or at least that's how I rationalized it to myself. :riiight:

    Plus, I like having a soundtrack for my life. My Ipod is almost always going, even at home when I don't want to bother other people with my music. I put my baby to good use.

    = Me if I had an iPod.

    I'm not saying they suck or cds are better or anything, I just don't see a point in spending so much money on something I already have subtitues for. I do plan on getting one eventually though.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    If the new iPods still have those awful internal battery packs then they still suck.

    If I had the money I'd get the new Sony mp3 player.

    I seriously want an iPod. There's this 40GB iPod...which is just insane. It's $400, but 40GB...who wants that many songs...or who has the time to listen to all of them?

    That's why I want a 4GB mini iPod. The green one, that you can personalize for free with engraving, is on the iPod website for $250. It's just the same cost as the 15GB iPod...but it's like, no bigger than a credit card. I'm also tired of burning CDs anyways. When I get an iPod, I'm going to just stuff it to the max.
