Ipod Shuffle - Is it worth it?

Question

Is an Ipod shuffle worth the money? I want at least 100 good quality songs

Answer 1

Convenience and Portability

For travelers who frequent internet cafe's or businessmen/students who elect not to bring their laptops with them. The iPod 1 GB Shuffle is for you as there is virtually enough space for not only your files and tunes, but also your convenience since it can fit snuggly into your hip/back pocket or be easily accessible around your neck.

Some people believe that 1GB (240 songs at 4 minutes and a recording rate of 56 to 128 per song) may not be enough for the average joe. But I beg to differ, as if you were to base the shuffle on practicality, a person traveling to and from school/work/home wouldn't be able to listen to all the songs in a single setting because of life experiences (e.g., someone talking to the shuffle user, they tire of listening to music after some point, may be prone to theft in crowded areas, scratches, etc.).

This music player is geared towards individuals who are not too particular with viewing the song titles and simply desire to listen to selected music during activities like traveling, reading, working, and exercising.

Personally, I find the shuffle to be the most practical device to use in jogging, abdominal workouts, and weightlifting as you don't have to worry about where to put it, if it may fall, etc. It allows you to simply enjoy and concentrate on the task at hand--exercising! Finally, a device that serves you and not the other way around!

But...

However, much like the Nano and Video apple products, the shuffle scratches easily. If you are going to purchase this device and are particular about scratches, take the necessary precautions such as investing on a rubber case or i-Skin to rest your worries.

Hope this was helpful.

Answer 2

No, because 100 songs sounds like a lot but trust me it isn't. I reccomend either the Ipod Nano or the 5 Gig Ipod.

Oh, and doesn't the shuffle randomly select the song? That would be really annoying to me if there is one in particular I want to hear.

Answer 3

Im listening to my shuffle as we speak - I also bought my partner the expensive one with 20,000 songs storage or whatever but seriously, who needs so many songs? even 100 is heaps! My shuffle only has used a third of its storage and Ive got about 35 songs on it and I just scroll thru what I want to hear. Shuffles are now only about $100 and I would definiately buy another.

Answer 4

in case you have already got a iPod touch and Nano then you certainly are actually not lacking out on the extra valuable MP3 products that Apple has to grant. in case you have the opt to make the series finished with a Shuffle, then decide for it, besides the reality that i don't see why you pick the shuffle. it variety of feels to me such as you have all the MP3 playing techniques you pick. you may placed your playlists on the touch and Nano too and that they'll play in the order. yet, you look such as you're cool with many of the downsides to the produce (no reveal screen, no administration over what you pay attention, small not easychronic), so in case you prefer it, decide for it.

Answer 5

NO, just get a nano, shuffles only play random songs even if they are cheaper, plus the nano has the time, games, screenlock,it can still shuffle songs and it holds more
