[biggestmexi]

it is in fact

[Space Edge]

Yup I have a 3 iPods and a iPhone

[Don Stugots]

3 ipods. Love em all equally.

[GvacMobile]

No. I listen to Sirius/XM satellite radio in support of my buddies Ron and Fez.

I wouldn't dream of buying either of them an iPod either.

That would be like buying a Home Depot gift certificate for a Lowe's executive.

[ToiletCrusher]

8gb touch - with me at all times
30gb video - direct connect to my car stereo (full function with text - yay me)
5gm 1st Gen - Retired but on display in my bookcase.

[hexy68]

got an 8 g Nano...prolly gonna get the new Ipod slim version too (got lotsa itunes gift cards to use)

[biggestmexi]

where do you use them at?

[EliSnow]

I own three iPods and my wife has an iPhone.

[A.J.]

I have an Ipod shuffle that's still in its box.

[toolshed]

3--one for the car, one for the house, and one on my person.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

No, but I use my wife's


Music is not a top priority , I like it, but Im not in like with it

[alabamatrucker]

I got my first Ipod ever for christmas. I have never owned an Ipod until christmas. I now know what i was missing. I have always had the non-apple mp3 player brands. I have the 15 gb Ipod nano video. I love it. It works really well and it has a long battery life and i really like itunes. I didnt think i would like it as much as i do but it kicks fuckin ass. Anybody wanna private message me some itune giftcard codes. LOVE you long time

Im with gvac here.

Everywhere you can use an ipod you can use XM.

plus i love the fact that I will hear music that I would not put on my MP3 player.

and I would hate to dl songs and put them onto the ipod just to KNOW what songs i will be listening to. Get lazy and never get new ones.

You can use both. Some days I listen to XM and some days I listen to my iPod.

And I switch up how I listen to my iPod. Some days, it's all full albums, some days it's shuffling the entire thing, and some days it's playlist.

Also, some people can't use XM at work (either blocked for stream and can't get a broadcast), but can use an iPod.

Not true. Try getting a sat signal on a subway.

Also on my Commute, if I don't get a window seat on the west side of the bus, no signal.

I record the show then put it on my MP3 to listen to during my next days commute.

But you still KNOW whats on your Ipod. Is there a way to just have randomly selected title to go on there?

I didn't take that work thing into consideration.

Did not think of that either. I never been on a train more or less a subway.

[Hottub]

*Tub takes a knee*

[toolshed]

My Inno doesn't work in any building with concrete walls. Recorded R&F for a few hours, I-pod the rest of the day.

Not that I know of, but I often forget songs that are on there.

But in the end, if I'm feeling like hearing new music, I play XM.

if only there was a show that introduced people to new music instead of the same crap, XM/Sirius/and the radio play.

[EliSnow]

If only. The person behind that show would be a saint.

[IMSlacker]

That would be so cool!

[TjM]

Nope no music devices. I pretty much just listen to 202 and 100/101 in the car

[Bob Weir]

if only there was a show that introduced people to new music instead of the same crap, XM/Sirius/and the radio play.

Sounds dumb.
Besides, it would never last.
And really, there's a Grateful Dead Channel now,
who needs anything else?
Well, maybe a Ratdog Channel, but that'll happen soon enough.

[IamFogHat]

I do and I can't believe how long it's lasted.

[furie]

Yes 2.
My wife uses one at work and i use mine when i work out or on the train

[Heather 8]

I bought a Shuffle last month. I already want an upgrade.

[KnoxHarrington]

I have an iPhone, and I still have my old 30 GB iPod Photo. I love them both.

[weekapaugjz]

i doubt that would be any good. probably play crap like okervill river.

now that's something i'd listen to!

[Hottub]

For real.

[instrument]

Hey big mexi, you do realize with overr 100gb of storsge you can put albums on it from new artists?

Seems absurd to have to state something so obvious,
I have a playlist dedicated to new music, right now I hav 5-600 songs on my ipod from artists that are either new to me, or new albumms from bands I like.

And unlike XM if I don't like it I can just hit skip and not have to worry about finding a new station.

I also have 60gb of R&F on my comp that I randomly sych with my ipod as well.

Inno loses to the ipod in my book.

[biggestmexi]

.

true, but no one has said they had over 100gb.

5,8, 30gb's

[EliSnow]

5,8, 30gb's

My at-home iPod is an 80gb.

BTW, I think Gvac's point only makes sense if you are not subscribing to XM and only listen to the iPod. I have to imagine most of the people here who have iPod's also subscrie to XM. So I'm not sure how owning the iPod hurts R&F.

[drusilla]

i still have my 20gb 3rd generation. it's got buttons! it's been dead for about 2 years.

[hedges]

I just got a 120 GB Classic for Christmas. I just finished putting my whole cd collection on it. I have it hooked up to my stereo right now in shuffle mode. I know that there's a lot more I can use it for, but I haven't got there yet.

[disneyspy]

ive got an ipod and mp3 loaded with stuff from the library,gonna buy more mp3s to load up for when i go back to work

[EliSnow]

Right now, since it's dead at work, I'm watching episodes of 24 on my iTouch.

Can't do that on my Inno.

i'm envious of the ipod genius playlist function

i got a 160gb in july i love playing with the genius option in itunes, and would love it on my ipod ... but it's only available on the 120gb

[MacVittie]

I have a 30 GB video; I really want to 120 GB. That seems like it would be enough (for now).

Proud Macintosh user since 1988.

[lleeder]

I don't own an an I-pod or Mp3 player. Thanks sailor, thanks. (http://www.ronfez.net/forums/showthread.php?t=67500&highlight=ipod)

[stinkbud]

I got an 8gb Sansa E280 with the Rockbox firmware on it. Rockbox allows me to use a 16gb microSDHC card with it (stock firmware only allows a max of 2gb). That gives me 24 gb of music goodness. I compress all my tunes down using the ogg vorbis codec which allows for better sound in smaller bitrate files (i use 96 kbps CBR) . Rockbox is available on the iPod in any version below 5.5, but I never liked iTunes and the whole DRM thing involved. I know things have gotten better but my Rockboxed sansa makes me geeky-cool.

This is my fourth Rockboxed player...I had an iRiver h320, a Toshiba F40 and a Sansa E260.

Its a mistery to me we have a greed with which we have agreed

You can still create a Genius playlist on iTunes and drag it into the iPod.

But, yeah, it's much cooler to be able to create one on the spot.

[FezsAssistant]

I have an 180GB ipod. I listen in the subways and when I go for walks around the city. One of the best things I've ever purchased, along with the Inno.
I listen to R&F recorded on my Inno. O&A on the replays.

[DonInNC]

I too bought my first Ipod last month. Sirius has ruined the XM music channels to the point that I'll listen to the "music choice" channels on TV before I will the sat radio music channels. R&F and the MLB channel are the only reasons I still subscribe.

[scottinnj]

What do the small fags have?

Nanos

[sr71blackbird]

No, I am not a music guy. I am curious about it though, but I am wary of downloading large files.

[Meataball23]

Ive bought 2 as gifts but i have my nano and record r&f on that

I do agree that sirius has ruined the xm music channels...except for 43

[psycho]

I have a 120gig Zune. I think the Zune Software is far superior, I can't stand Itunes.
Listen to Ron & Fez through Audible on it since I don't have XM.

[Nothing Sound]

I work with people who still use a cassette Walkman.

jeez thats pretty oldschool XD

[JohnGacysCrawlSpace]

I hate itunes....i wish i could just drag and drop my music onto my new ipod like i can on to my xm pioneer inno. The inno doesn't have nearly as much storage space but its a breeze to load with mp3s.

That's pretty much what you do if you manually update your ipod. You have to import the files into Itunes, but you drag and drop them onto the player.

[brettmojo]

I do now. The Itouch is great, but I wish I could transfer my Napster tracks onto it.

[Gvac]

I just got my first iPod.

These things are fucking fantastic!

[hammersavage]

Traded up from the Victrola?

[Mullenax]

I don't really care about listening to music, so I don't own one.
Wish I had an Inno.

[Gvac]

Holy shit!

It plays videos too?

Who knew?!?!?

No. I listen to Sirius/XM satellite radio in support of my buddies Ron and Fez.

sellout.

[Reephdweller]

I have

an old 3G 20 gig iPod (never use it due to firewire)

a iPod shuffle
a Video iPod 30 gig
a iPod nano 8 gig
a iPod Touch

I love them all

[TheGameHHH]

I have 2. I got an iTouch for Christmas and I treat it like royalty, even though I spilled iced tea on it last week and there are some clouds on the screen now.

I also have a first gen. iPod that is over 4 years old. I use it every day at the gym but im about to retire it and look for a cheap shuffle on eBay. This bitch doesnt last more then 16 minutes now at the gym.

[Death Metal Moe]

I got my 1st iPod as a gift. 20 gig U2 ipod, old one that had a black and white LCD screen. It still changed the way I listened to music.

I just bought a new 120 gig iPod that can get videos and all that shit. This thing is fucking tits. It reinvented the way I carry around not only music but now video and pictures.

I'm a PC guy through and through but Apple really got these things right.

[Reephdweller]

My iPod touch is easily my favorite device. I've been using it less as a mp3 player and more for an entertainment purposes. For regular music playing I still use either my 30 gig video ipod or my 8 gig nano. One of my favorite things about it is that it has Nike + built right into it which I use for walks and running.

how is the on-board genius playlist generator ...?

[Reephdweller]

I love Genius, it's pretty accurate to a lot of music I like and a lot of times opens me up to music I haven't heard before or considered.

[Death Metal Moe]

how is the on-board genius playlist generator ...?

Don't know what it is and didn't even know it was there. I still just use it as a standard music player that I usually put on shuffle and go.

[KnoxHarrington]

You set it up in iTunes (gotta have version 8.0 or higher) Once you do, you can select "Genius Playlist" in your iPod, and it will automatically create a playlist when you click on a song you have. Here's how to set it up:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2895

It does work with all the latest models, including the Classic and the Nano (but not the Shuffle, obviously.) And it does give pretty good results.

[underdog]

If you shuffle, you should definitely check out Genius. It's pretty awesome.

[badorties]

i've played with the genius function on itunes, and i've copied a few playlists to my ipod ... pretty cool function

[mikeyboy]

Big fan of Genius playlists.

[KnoxHarrington]

I will warn you that if you have a lot of music, and you haven't set up the Genius function previously, the initial setup takes quite a while. So just be patient.

[Gvac]

I'm bored with my iPod already.

Over-hyped piece of shit.
