iPods suck

Talk about music, movies, TV, books, other types of entertainment and what your vices are. Also, if you're addicted to the high you get off Aspirin, this is the place to talk about it.

Oooh, I see. The problem is that you don't know what equal means, or at least how to use the word.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

My MD player is a good solution. It has 5-6 hours of music on a single MD, and the battery lasts long enough. Also, it's pretty small and doesn't weigh a lot.
It's also very hardy and can withstand many a blows and falls.

...but someday, by God, we will teach you math.
Maybe, someday, by God, I will teach you English. Now, I know what you're thinking, but that's not PROPER English that you wrote. Add the bloody "s" already! "Mathematic" doesn't sound right as a school subject, right? "Mathematic" implies that the subject has something to do with mathematics.

Damn separatists. Thinking you're better than everyone else because you can drop a letter here or change a pronounciation there... BAH!

Forget all that shit. The worst two things about iPods are (a) their worthless headphones, abd (b) the 1,000s of mindless trance "songs" some kid plays on his before my Monday/Wednesday/Friday morning class. Some people should not be allowed to own them.

Same. I think I'd start trying to ram people off the road if I didn't have my CD MP3 player in my car.

Next two bad things about iPods: Their rip-offability and the fact that you can't play WMA files on them.

Cons: You can't adjust any of the preset equalizer settings, so I can't set the bass the way I like it. (The "Rock" preset is fine, though. And if you plug the iPod into decent speakers, you get good bass.) Also, the carrying cases are ludicrously overpriced. And the earbuds suck.

Pros: Insanely portable. Great sound quality, even at 128 kbps. So frickin' small. And grey goes with everything.

I bet you do that all the time! You really are a bad ass!

The white headphones regardless are not so good, but uh, they are stock headphones and unless you are retarded you cannot ever expect any stock headphones to be good.

I think I'm going to buy one of those Creative MuVo, as it has 1 gb of music, and it's much smaller then an Ipod.
It also weighs less, lasts longer before you have to change a battery, and is less fragile.

It also doubles as a portable usb mass storage device.

And it costs less.
