Apple - iPod Video 60G Media Player Reviews

When my husband gave me an iPod for Christmas several years ago, my stomach dropped. My thoughts were...this is way too expensive...do I listen to music enough to own one of these?...it's going to be too complicated to enjoy...I really wanted a GC to Sephora. But I was a good sport and went through with the set up which with the help of my very savvy teen, was very easy. And I proceeded to load my many CDs onto it and then I spent the itunes giftcards on a few audiobooks and then I discovered podcasts. Sigh...I love podcasts. I can listen to talk radio, any kind I want, whenever I want, without...

In my opinion the iPod is the most convenient way to store, organize, purchase, and listen to music.  When you first get your iPod all you have to do is download iTunes,which is free, then plug the iPod into the computer. From there you can purchase songs from iTunes our download songs from CDs you already have.  To put the songs on the iPod you just plug it into the computer and iTunes will automatically update the iPod with all the songs that have been added since te last time it was plugged in.

I love my iPod!!  I won't buy any other brand of MP3 player!

How have we ever gotten around in this world without iPods.  My iPod has become just as important item to leave the house with as my cell phone has.  Of course there are drawbacks to being to dependent however, the benefits outweight the negative.  From waiting in an airport for hours to going on long road trips, my iPod goes everywhere with me.  The video functions have added to amount of time I use my iPod, from watching video before I go to bed to watching a movie while in midair on a 2 hour flight!

I bought my ipod not because I listen to that much music.  I am an avid book reader.  I get tired of the same old songs on the radio.  So I purchased an FM Transmitter for my ipod.  I now download and listen to audio books in my car whenever I go anywhere.  To work shopping or whatever.  I no longer have to listen to the same 10 songs being played on the radio. 

 If you like books, it's a great way to listen to audiobooks.

It's totally worth it. I've watched two movies on it already and I listen to my music while working out and traveling. It is small and fits in my purse. Apple also sells a lot of skins for it so that it won't get damaged wherever you carry it around. The battery life is great also. It lasts for about 8 hours which is good enough for me.

Loved this ipod until the hard drive went bad. Only lasted a couple of years. Now taking it to Best Buy to get refurbished for $120, still cheaper than a new one. Holds everything I need, videos, music, photo's, etc. Con's - durability, battery life while playing video's, screen easily scratched.
