A 5G iPod Video is the best. I will give you a whole bunch of reasons why it is worth it (I have one by the way.) First, it can hold 7500 songs. You don't see many MP3 Players that can do that do you? Also, the video capabilities option is wonderful. I have at least 100 videos on mine, a bunch of south park episodes, the simpsons, family guy, and 10 movies on top of that, and still room for 750 songs and over 400 photos, with 5GB to spare for whatever I want. And the iPod is one of the very few Mp3 players that can be hacked. I mean the real deal, playing Doom, Half-Life, Quake, and more games on it, writing text documents on it, painting pictures on it, and a whooole lot more. Look into iPod Linux, Rockbox, and iPod Wizard (for more info on this, go to http://iPodForum.co.nr .) And I could go on an on all day about why you should get the iPod Video. One other reason: once you have it in your hand the first time, you will never put it down. It's got a great look and I take mine everywhere. To school, on the bus, to the mall, my friends' houses, I even listen to it when I'm falling asleep. I'm addicted to it. I love it. If you get one then you will definately know what I am talking about. By the way, I was just talking about the 30GB iPod. If you get the 60GB iPod, then you can double everything I said which would be even better (the 60GB iPod is $400 and the 30GB is $300.) Good luck with your decision.

Actually, I prefer to use Apple rather than Microsoft. However, the Nano sucks because it heats up and leaves scratches on the screen (this isn't true of most Nanos, but...)...the iPod Video is much more reliable.

I don't think so. It gets scratched very easily. It is very expensive. The memory cant be expanded. Once the battery dies you have to get a new player. The bettery cant be replaced.
There are a lot of MP3 players from not so big brands which all these problems. They also add few more features like FM Radio & it can be recorded & voice recorder.
However if you still prefer branded player, go for a samsung YP-Z5Q it has more features & is in the similar price bracket.

No, it's not that good.
It lacks FM radio, voice recorder, FM radio, and can be scratched easily.
The Sandisk Sansa e200 series is better inlcuding FM radio, voice recording, video, and a bigger, sharper screen for a lower price.

i have a 30gb video and its great. if you have the money to spend i would recommend a 30 or 60gb. it holds a lot more songs. and if you think about it, its kinda cheaper in the long run. i looked at getting a 4gb($249.99) but decided to get a 30($299.99). OH PLUS TAX OF COURSE.

Don't buy from Apple, they're trapping you into their proprietary standards, in a way that Microsoft could only dream about.
