does anybody know anything about ipod's, i'm thinking about buying 1 but i'm not sure whether you have to buy the songs or can you just get them from a P2P then transfer them to the Ipod?

I just need some help? thanks in advance!

[Honeybee027]

Dont get an ipod! i have an ipod mini and it keeps breaking like the New Nano's do...get a creative zen micro or touch..

[Chris4]

im just at the thinking stage at the moment, anymore advice you guys on ipods or creative zens

[Uglybob]

buy creative instead, they are cheaper and are more sturdy

[David]

get one thats compatible with Napster To Go. Then for £15 a month you can download as much music as you want, and put it on your MP3 player.

[Uglybob]

or you can nick songs for nowt


just say no kids


makes it quicker for me to download

[David]

P2P takes ages, even on broadband.

[Chris4]

thanks guys , anything else?

[Uglybob]

depends what songs you want, if its popular then your fine plus theres some "Sites" that you can get new albums before theyre released.

it depends how many songs you want on it for storage. most people would be happy with 5gb, i wouldnt, i have 3700 on mine and its half full

Get an ipod (there ace)

Download songs via Limewire (it's free)

Drag songs in to itunes (not technical)

Bingo Bango (jobs a good'un)

It's that hard.

There's nothing wrong with my Nano ...

I get up to 150k/s on the popular files, i dont mind waiting a little longer for rarer stuff, especially as most things i download from p2p are current singles or random old/new songs that arent mainstream and wouldnt be on services such as the Apple store or Napster.

[David]

See I find Napster really good, even for non mainstream stuff.

As hard as proper english?

[DC]

Get a boombox. It's time to go back to the oldskool.

[Mafro]

Get a Creative mp3 player, much better than ipods, which are just basically a fashion item and make you look like a tosser.

[Sidders]

Just get a 1GB mp3 player. The music will last a few hours and it's loads cheaper. It's dead easy to change your music files. I don't understand the point of an iPod when you have a hard disk in your computer with all your music files on and you're never going to have a situation where you have a months worth of music that you want to listen to continuously.

I have a 40GB iPod and would now admit that it's bigger than what i need, although it does work handily with my new Alpine car head unit, and i can use it to back up my 30GB of MP3's. Though for a 'walkman' equivalent the new Nano's seem very good.

[Mafro]

Massively overpriced and overrated. Creative Zen Micro is where its at.

[Chris4]

thanks people, i'll take your comments onboard you've been quite helpful, if you wish you can add more comments

Can you get black nanos ?

[Dickie]

[Quincy]

obviously not

[Adam]

Say if Chris Harris was buying every board member a nano - what colour nano would you ask for ?

Black does look sexy...

[Dickie]

White.

What did Mr. Harris go for out of interest?
