A technophobe get an iPod |

Until earlier this year I had never owned a computer, let alone an iPod. So. I got an iPhone, an iPod and a MacBook. In that order. If i could figure it out with NO HELP, anyone can. |

Died 1 yr and 2 weeks after I got it... |

Died 1 yr and 2 weeks after I got it... ITUNES is clunky and all the content is Apple proprietary. The unit functioned ok when it worked, but dying just after the 1 yr is pretty bad for what you are paying. I really don't like how everything from ITUNES is Apple m4v for videos (can't convert to MP4) and you have to convert music to MP3. Video is especially a problem since I have purchased the TV Show or Movie but Apple won't let me play it on any other player of which I have many. Many people don't realize unless or until they want to use some other player than an IPOD that they will have to convert the music and won't be able to play the video. Like I said the unit functioned ok (nothing special) when it worked. It was expensive compared to other non Apple products, but I gave it a shot and probably wouldn't purchase another IPOD again. I've had IPODs, Sansa's, Zen's, and a Zune. The Sansa and the Zen were great for basic MP3 playback, but I bought the first generation Zune 30 gig and that thing still works perfectly for Music and Video |

Audiophile Seeks Music Vault |
I bought this item (Apple 120GB iPod) a little over a year ago. Shortly after, I got an iPhone (3Gs - 8GB). My plan was to make my 120GB iPod a miniature vault to carry around the 600+ CD's I've accumulated, plus a few photos and videos. The added games were a nice feature, too (though, iPhone/iPod Touch has far better ones).
The battery life was phenomenal. I could go days without charging.
Sound quality was good. I used it mostly in my car or when traveling, so the sound was typically limited to my headphones/speakers.
It was tough to watch movies or play games, as the screen size was relatively small (I do have an iPhone, mind you) and the wheel was kind of touchy for any games.
I also got accessories to make this thing a tank. I wanted it to survive an apocalypse, so I'd still have my whole collection of music wherever I go. I also have at least 3 backups of my music collection (what can I say, I'm an audiophile!). This is where it failed, however. I recently had this in my back pocket and was listening to music on headphones while doing yardwork, and managed to catch the headphone cable on my elbow and send the sucker spiraling out towards a slab of concrete.
I thought I was lucky, and my accessories had paid off. It worked for roughly another day and a half. Then, it abruptly stopped, and gave me the red "X". [...]
After trying multiple times to get it to go to disk mode & recover...well...it flatlined. Since I'm over a year out (by 4 months), my warranty seems to have expired. So I'd recommend the warranty, first off. Hindsight is 20/20, right?
The nearest Apple store is a ways away, so I opted to have it sent in for repair/service. It was ~$160 upfront just to send it in for repairs. For a measly $60 more, I can just get the *NEWEST* generation @ 160GB.
Like I said, I have the iPod backed up on at least 3 different hard drives (computer & external HD's), so I'm not upset about the loss of music/etc. It just seems like this is a disposable unit, at a ~$200 annual fee.
I'm going to try stopping by an Apple store next time I'm near one, but otherwise, I'll just wait a few years and see if something better comes along (which, I'm guessing will cost roughly ~$220.00 for the "next best thing").
I don't see the sense in spending $160.00 to fix an old unit, nor buying a new unit at $220 (the cost of a 7th Gen right now...which was the cost of my 6th Gen a year ago).
I just hope Apple stops painting themselves into a corner (I mean really, my AT&T coverage leaves a bit to be desired, and their "trade secret" approach to all things Apple leaves a gaping hole for Google, et al, to fill). I'm now on the hunt for a massive storage & portable MP3 player that will survive ad eternum...or at least 3-4 years.
Oh, and my many efforts with Windows based MP3 players have been no better - Apple has that cornered on behalf of software & compatibility. At least with iTunes, I'm not losing my music files due to DRM corruption. |
