Ipod New trend

[B.A.M.]

Well today was my first day back in school from vaca. As im walking to my locker im noticing that at least 20 kids have new ipods. Is this a New trend in just my skool or are other experencing the same thing

[Kai]

Yeah, they all want to be like you.

[B.A.M.]

i dont have an ipod

[BlackWeenie]

nope, its happening everywhere. every rich kid's gotta have one.

[B.A.M.]

i'd much rather get a pump for 300$.(which im doing)

[WenULiVeUdiE]

It's now a status symbol. Most people dont even want all that storage and all that. It's a new trend, and an expensive one at that. HP must be doing real well from them.

Wave of the future...

I have one (got for christmas) because it beats hauling a backpack full of CDs wherever I go, especially the train commute in the morning/evening. Plus, it can be used as a portable hard drive to transfer big files.

I see TONS of them on my train in the morning.

Ipodz are st00pid

I like the RCA Lyra I got for christmas. Normally I wouldn't get one because mine only had 128 mb, but it has an expansion slot and it just so happens that my dad gave me a 1 gig sd card for my camera.
Plus I'm using the mp3pro format with it (half the size, same quality) so I can fit double the songs on there than you normally could with 1 gig and 128 mb. So that means I have a 2 1/4 gig player or something.

Now the really cool part is its tiny as hell and you get 50 hours of battery life off of a single AA


But yeah, everyone's getting ipods. All of them are breaking too, its kind of funnny
One of my friends sat on his and the screen cracked, the other's wont power on, and someone else's hard drive got screwed up, and those are 3 I can think of off the top of my head.


Heh.

[PissedGodzilla]

Ipods Pwn all you haters out there....


I just got mine as well. i don't know how I survived without it. The ability to put EVERY SINGLE CD I OWN onto this itsy bitsy thing is phenominal!!!!


Ipod Haters

[B.A.M.]

[whymillywhy]

Down to iPod Haters!

I have an Ipod(20 gig) and honestly, I love it.

However, I use minidiscs more often. My little Sony minidisc player can hold 5 hours of music on a single minidisc and only takes about 5 minutes to make one. I usually make a mix of stuff in the morning when I wake up and listen to it through-out the day between classes and stuff. Plus, it gets like 60 hours of playback time on a single AA battery.

I use my Ipod for file storage too. I can take my entire portfolio of schoolwork, a movie or two, and a couple hundred hour of music with me on a trip and it's great.

They are a new trend, because they are just so flipping useful.

Like many have said, the ability to fit your entire music library into something that can fit into the palm of your hand is truly amazing.

Wow! In case you missed it, 2004 was THE YEAR of the iPod. It was by far the "gotta have" gadget. I got me one when they first came out since im an Apple nut.

Ditto. I had the original first run Ipod from November of 2001. Only 5 gigs or storage, but still enough for most of my music.

That was before they worked with windows and only Apple people could use them
