Should I buy an iPod?

By this point you've probably already made up your mind whether to buy one or not and are just looking for some positive reinforcement for your decision. Because the iPod's technical schematics are easily found elsewhere online, I won't spend a lot of time on the... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

Okay, so I once owned an Ipod. But those times were short lived when I realized that I didn't really listen to the Ipod that much and I kept on going back to that CD player of mine. To make a long story short, I sold that Ipod for 200 dollars, thinking that I would never go back to an Ipod again. I... Read full review »

Pros Sound, Size, Video, iTunes, Best for Money
Cons Clock is limited, Video performance
Recommended it? Yes



I first purchased an iPod photo 20GB and used it for one week. It was very good and provided entertainment while I was out of country. When I got back I found the iPod Video 30GB for only $20 more so I returned the iPod Photo and purchased the iPod Video.

This thing is awesome... Read full review »

Pros memory video clarity sturdy easy to use
Cons lack of accessories
Recommended it? Yes

This iPod video is amazing. The video quality is superb, the sound is fantastic, it's easy to use and it has a TON of memory. I have never had an iPod and I'm glad I waited to buy this one.

I have two complaints. My first complaint is that Apple doesn't include a wall charger with the... Read full review »

It?s the machine that defined ?iPod?

bykfj001 Jan 24, 2006
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Big drive, decent battery life, new large color screen, plays videos. Supports MP3 and AAC
Cons Video's must be in special format, it's a very highly overglorified MP3 player.
Recommended it? Yes

For most people, an mp3 player IS an iPod; the iPod is so synonymous with digital music these days that Apple's own particular brand of digital music player became the archetype by which we compare all other portable digital media players…

Okay, enough babbling, let's talk about this... Read full review »

A step up from the previous gen in some respects... but not in others.

byMagnumForce Jan 24, 2006
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Ease of use, beautiful screen, sound quality, video.
Cons Video conversion, lack of Firewire support, scratches easily, no wall adaptor.
Recommended it? Yes

So my previous gen 20GB monochrome iPod gave up the ghost a few weeks ago, and went to that big iPod graveyard in the sky. Lucky for me, I had a service plan at the local big box electronics store, and my replacement was a brand spanking new 30GB iPod Video. In black.

To say I was excited... Read full review »

Best Digital Media Player Available, without question!

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Battery life, color screen, multiple uses, compact size, portability, and compatibility
Cons screen scratches somewhat easily
Recommended it? Yes

I received this iPod this past Christmas. The capabilities and features of the latest generation of iPods are great and I use my black iPod almost daily.

Obviously a 60 gigabyte version is available, but for almost any user the 30 gig model (which I have) will provide more storage space... Read full review »

An Improvement Over the Last Four Generations?

Pros 30GB of space, Bright screen, Video quality and playback, Value
Cons Sub par battery life, Misleading ability to play videos, Headphones quality
Recommended it? Yes

Music has been my hobby and passion for a long time now. It originally started with mixtapes using tapes, then grew into DJ mixtapes on CDs. Even though I have a relatively small library of songs (about 1,600), I kept the people around me entertained. Playing these songs have been mostly limited to... Read full review »

Pros Size, display screen, easy to use
Cons Needs better case included, battery life
Recommended it? Yes

I am a professional mobile DJ. I had previously purchased a 20 gig iPod in early 2005. I liked the sound quality but of course, once I buy something, the next generation comes out. I am a product of the 80's. Back when MTV actually played music videos. I wanted to be able to watch my favorite... Read full review »

Too Fragile

Pros Sound is good when it works
Cons Fragile screen / poor customer care after purchase
Recommended it? No

After less than a month, the screen on my iPod cracked. It wasn't dropped or damaged in any way. I called Apple & they basically said it was my fault because I must have done something to it and it's just too bad. Yeah, I did something to it, turned it on - thats all. This is the biggest waste of... Read full review »
