Wellman Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 What does everyone reckon. You can get an Ipod miny for roughly £160 off of the Apple site.
Alexikokopops Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 I would, you don't realise how good they are until you get one. It's so brilliant if you just feel like listening to a random song. I currently have 4865 songs on mine, and I'm not even half full Although I'd get a proper one rather than the mini.
Guest Daniel Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 Ipods are shit mate, dont waste your money. They are a fashion accessory for chavs.

TrickyTrev Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 Get a large hard drive MP3 player but I wouldn't suggest an iPod, there are many other (better?) alternatives at much cheaper prices. I personally have the Creative Zen Touch which is superb, easy to use and I'd reccomend it to anybody.

Oli Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 I need a Mp3 player! 67233[/snapback] Get one then mate, Ebay is the way to do it.
Little Nicky Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 http://www.microdirect.co.uk/ProductInfo.aspx?ProductID=7065 That's cheaper on there! and if you search they have 30gb and 40gb versions even cheaper

I was just interested that's all, doesn't hurt to have a look!
Alexikokopops Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 Creative Zen TouchMy best advice is to shop around a bit. 67222[/snapback] I'm not a big fan of the Creative Zen myself, my mate has one and I find the iPod a lot easier to use, and asthetically appealing. A plus point of the iPod is iTunes, which is the best music thing I've had the pleasure of using. And Smart Playlists are fun, I don't know if you can do them with any other MP3 things.
Mark Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 I have the Creative Zen. I was loving it to begin with. Currently though i've filled the whole of my 30gb of space up, the battery now sucks. I have to recharge every time before i want to listen it, and within a few hours its all but ran out!
TrickyTrev Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 I have heard alot of complaints about then ZEN battery, but mine is fantastic. It is certainly a lot better than my Sister's iPod. It seems to me there is a certain amount of luck involved with the indiviusal model you recieve.

The iRiver has the longest battery life out of the 3 mentionned.
Oli Posted 15 February 2005 Posted 15 February 2005 The Zen Xtra has a battery life of 14 hours, but says it could go down to 10 at the least, so I am not to bothered about that. I wont listen to it for 10 hours flat.
