'cept I don't own an iPod. Mine is a Creative Nomad Zen Xtra.
I'm just wondering….why in God's name would anyone want to carry 9,000,000,000 songs with them? I mean, when are you ever going to listen to them all without going back home?

I suppose it's just techonology, and folk want technology wether it's really useful or not.

Enjoy your toys though….no harm done I suppose.

Well, I hated carrying a back-pack full of CD's. And the content of my mp3 player is still maybe only half of my actual CD's. The rest are sitting in milk crates in my closet. I tend to go back and listen to things I haven't heard in a while just like I did when I carried a backpack full of CD's.

Because if I'm out for a few hours, I have my entire music collection at my disposal. When I'm out for a long drive, or running or hiking, and I get the urge to hear Neu! then Carole King then Ween then Maiden and then Mingus, I can. Because of the iPod, the wall of CDs that took up so much space in the living room has been put away. No CDs in the car or backpack either.

Besides, some of these iPods have a lot of memory, so why not use it? I just move everything on to it in order to keep my hard drive relatively clear.

So I did the shuffle and now my iPod is broke. It says it has like 6 gigs of music on it… But when I go thru the menus of artists, albums, playlists, suddenly it is all wiped clean. Has tis happened to anyone? I haven't plugged it in to the computer or anything, because that crashed too a few days before. My brother backed up my music on DVDs thankfully. Any idea what happend to the pod?
With 5000+ songs, some crap is bound to come up.

I have no shame about what guilty pleasures are on my iPod :)
