MP3 Players

What does everyone have on here? Other than music what is on yours(Podcasts, Movies)

I have an 80gig Zune, and I love it.

I only have about 3000 songs on it right now, as well as about 40 movies, and I still have about 40 free gigs.

I recently undertook the massive task of transferring all the music from it to my new netbook, so I can re-tag and add artwork to all the music. As well as delete some of the crap that's made it's way on there over the years.

I love my 80gig Zune as well but I want to get a 120gb one in the near future.

160gb iPod Classic. I love it as well, and dont really understand the problems people have with iPods and iTunes in general. It keeps everything in order, and how well organised it is generally comes down to how much information you use when labelling the music.

This is where someone tells me I'm completely wrong...

You are right. I have an ipod that was bought as a xmas gift two years back, still in the box. I'm old school i have a six disc changer.

80GB ipod Classic. Shame that I purchased it shortly before they dropped the price on the 160GBs, but mine's not even close to full, so I really can't complain.

I have troubles scrobbling sometimes, but this isn't too disruptive to me. It's something I've learned to live with.

I thought there was one of these threads already but I couldn't find it.

I have an 80G iPod Classic that I got as a present from my ex for my 21st. I suppose as far as mp3 players go it probably suits me the best. The sound quality might be a bit inferior but there's very few mp3 players on the market with that amount of storage capacity. I'd prefer to have most of my collection stores on it rather than having the hassle of swapping files whenever I want to change the music stored on it.

I also have one of these little IItronics mp3 players

The storage capacity is only 512MB but the sound quality is actually better than the iPod. They're handy just to have in your pocket when you're walking around town.

You are so wrong why would you continue to be brainwashed by Mr Jobs?

I have a 4th generation iPod Touch, 32 GB. Got it as a Christmas gift, and it's the right amount of storage capacity for me. I previously had a 5th generation iPod Video (the precursor to the Classic), which was 80 GB. I don't think I ever went past the 40 GB mark, even with a few movies on there. That thing was a tank though. I had it for nearly 5 years I think, and it had been through the wash, dropped, stepped on, you name it.

Because Steve Jobs didnt sell me the iPod. Originally I bought a 20gb 3rd gen iPod in 2004 or whenever they came out, and it served me very well. Of course, in 2004 I'd have been about 15, so was very image conscious which would have been a big reason for the iPod. But as I say, it served me well, and it was only when the 20gb filled up (around 2007) that I needed to think about a bigger memory, and given my only good experiences I bought the 160gb model as an upgrade.

I had one major issue with it one time, I cant rememebr what it was exactly, but it wasnt working properly. I took it back to the store I got it from, they sent it off to Apple to have a look and give me a quote on a price to fix it. Within 3 days I had a call from the store saying Apple had sent me a new iPod out, free of charge, and it was ready to collect in store.

I have said in other threads that I would more than likely not buy Apple products (Macbooks, iPads and iPhones spring to mind), but my experiences with the iPod and Apples customer service has been nothing but amazing.

And that's why I have an iPod.

I have a car, so I don't use much portable audio.
But I do have a Sandisk Sansa Clip. Which works brilliantly and sounds incredibly good for the price. And I have my Nokia E75 which has a pretty neat headphone preamp compared to e.g. Samsung Galaxy S or Blackberry 9700 bold something something darkside.
