Apple iPod classic 6th Generation Silver (160 GB) MP3 Player

I got this for my son for his birthday two months ago, so far so good. I asked him for his opinion on this ipod and he loves it. I had originally bought him a mp3 player similar to the Apple figuring since it had all the same features as this one it would be fine plus it was less than half the price of the real deal. Well it was great for about a year and then it just quit working one day. No one can figure out what happened. So we decided we would try the Apple iPod and hopefully we will have better luck.
This iPod has every feature you could ever think of and then some! My son mainly uses it for his music, it has tons of storage capacity for songs he will probably never reach the full capacity. This unit will allow you to play video also, many of the mp3's claim they also are capable to but when you actually download the media it takes up to much of the storage and when watching it the frames freeze. On this one that hasn't happened at this point. Of course we have only had it for a few months so who knows.
The screen on this is much bigger than the nano so it is clearer when watching your media and viewing pictures. The instructions are fairly simple, there were a few things my son has had trouble with but quickly got help when he contacted customer support. The sound quality is great, very clear without any fuzzy noise in the backround.
The only thing that isn't to great is the price of this. It is hard to believe that something this small can cost so much! I am hoping that the quality is going to make it worth the price we paid. For those who don't need all the extra storage and don't plan on downloading videos, the iPod nano is a more affordable option. My daughter has the nano and she has everything she needs plus it's a little smaller and much cheaper.
