gah, now I'm happy I haven't bought it.

They've made 'em smaller. GameStop used to...(or still does?) sell 'em. I haven't seen any in any stores in my district in a WHILE....

But yeah...mp3 players are mp3 players to me. I'm not using iPod or Zune atm, but I'd much rather use my SD cards for my video games....and it just so happens, my boyfriend found this thing where if he buys an iPod through something going on in his school, which will cost 100 bucks, he gets that 100 bucks credited to him next semester toward tuition.

Since he pays tuition out of pocket as well as loans, he's nice enough to offer to buy the iPod and give it to me. No real loss or gain for him. Technically, it's a free iPod.

But yeah...like I said in the 300 buck thread...I'm cheap as hell. I wouldn't pay for something just for the name. Now, don't get me wrong, if I didn't know better, and didn't have ANY type of mp3 player, I probably would have bought an iPod.

Of course it does, it's made by Apple.

No, you can't look by folder. The songs appear in the list like all the rest, however if you have it set to show it you can have it show Genre, Artist, and Album at the top and sort by that.



For example, here is mine.

How does the actual player view them then though? You can't really look by "folder" or anything.

Beyond Good and Evil was made by Ubisoft. Poop on you.

I like ipods. I think the iphone is overhyped, but so is everything else in our rampant consumerist culture.

I try not to bring attention to brand names and try to get the best product I "need" for the best price.

The whole deal about not being able to drag and drop is a reason why I'm happy with Zunes. It's easy to use, but are also a bit big. However, that doesn't bother me.

I got an iPod Shuffle for Christmas a few years ago. Though I don't use it all the time, I'm finding it rather useful in providing non-skipping music during the tedious moments in life (waiting in line, riding on the bus, etc).

As for a particular product line I hate for whatever reason... I guess I'll go with American Apparel. Ick...

Still, though. They made the shirts for the Iron Man 2 panel, and those are the friggin' softest shirts I've ever felt. Yep, you feel sinful wearing them.

I luckily got an iPod for Christmas last year. That said, I absolutely can't stand iTunes at all. I can see how some would like it but when you've got gigs of music already organized via folders, I wish I could just simply drag and drop them unto the player like an external drive or whatever. Throwing my anime folder on there was probably the scariest thing I've ever done, the kanji, the artists, hundreds of random songs are still in there untitled, etc, it was a horrifying mess. All that would've been fine if you could just drag and drop folders without it doing anything!

Oh god, McDonald's. Here in Quebec, they also serve poutine.

God the price is (or was, haven't had one in forever) horrible. Truly horrible.

Gas, lol.

Seriously though, I think that the iPod line is kinda overpriced, but otherwise I do like the product and find them useful. As for other things, it isn't so much specific products that I dislike as it is things that I feel we get ripped off over... like gas, food, internet, etc.

Oh...wait... and McDonald's. That's right, you pay out your nose for that crappy burger.

Thank god, they were sold out on iPod Touch, I would've felt dirty for years to come.

Do you guys have any product line you happen to dislike for whatever reasons (i.e price vs. what is offered, etc)?
