what ipod is the best?

Answer 1

obvoiusly the best iPod is the most expensive, the 60GB video. but a word of warning, ALL IPODS ARE GARBAGE, before you get an iPod, take a look at this. http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zen...
it is so much better then an iPod, for starters it plays WMAs as well as MP3, the iPod only plays very specific MP3, since WMAs are half the size of MP3, that means the zen will hold twice as many songs. on top of that the creative comes with more memory for less money.

iPod - $300 - 20GB - 10,000 MP3s

Vision M - $300 - 30GB - 15,000MP3s, or 30,000 WMAs

the iPods hardly play any file types. the zen will hold any file at all and play it flawlessly, the iPod will only hold very specific files, ussually not the files you have. also creative doesn't force you to use itunes, you can use the softare supplied by creative and you can also use the "my computer" window. also the creative zen actually comes with a wall charger, so you dont have to have a compatible computer to charge the thing on vacation. the zen's battery life is longer, and also the zen wont become a vegetable after a year like iPods do. the zen has an FM tuner, the iPod doesn't. the zen has much better picture quality then the iPod, not that you will ever see videos on your iPod without buying $100 worht of software. the apple customer support will ignore and neglect you also. while creative's customer support is very helpful, not that ive ever had to call over this product. the iPod is a product that isn't designed to work right out of the box. all the features are disabled, you can't use it without putting much work towards it, this is because the iPods are more of a fashion accessory, they are a trend not a music player. if you want a player that will work right out of the box, a player in which all of the features function perfectly immediately. get the creative zen vision M

trust me, i know what im talking about. i have owned both of these products. i bought an iPod video at first, then returned it for the creative zen, best move i ever made.

Answer 2

If it must be an IPod, what do you need? Storage capacity, or portability? If you want more music, get a 30 or 60gb video. If you want it to fit in your pocket, get a nano. But I'd wait a few weeks, rumor has it that both will be getting spec bumps pretty soon.

If it doesn't have to be an IPod, the new Meizu player is getting rave reviews from the tech blogs, and I have a creative zen micro that works really well. The new vision and vision:m are both high-rated players.

Answer 3

I have personally owned two different types of iPod and so has my sister. The only iPod I have not owned is the 30 or 60GB video-enabled models. The shuffle's ultra-portable, but there's no screen and they only hold up to 240 songs (but they're very cheap). The mini's decent, but its no longer in production; plus, its a hard-drive player (which I do NOT recommend). The video iPods are also hard-drive players, but I can't help but think that Apple has worked out their mistakes. I personally recommend the nano. They're just as portable as a shuffle, but they have a screen and can hold up to 1,000 songs. I love my 4GB nano but I admit that I'd like a video iPod in addition to my nano so that I could have videos on the go.

Answer 4

I have a Dell DJ20. I love it, but it is expensive. It is 20GB and holds over 9,000 songs. So, I did not answer your question about iPods because I would not know which one to get.

Answer 5

For music, the latest Apple iPod.

For movies, the Creative Zen Vision.

Answer 6

iPods are bad

Answer 7

Nano! Well, get a Nano if you're looking for a smaller iPod. If you don't care about size and prefer more storage, then get the regular one. I love my Nano!

Answer 8

I prefer the walkman, the software is better (sonic) and the size is also bettr.
I have a 20GB ipod and I don't like it because of the itunes software
