I would like to know if with ipods, do you have to download all music from the internet or can you download from your own music library. Do mp3 devices have disc that go with them or is it basically the same technology as the ipod?

an ipod is a specific model of an mp3 player, created by Apple. there are many mp3 players, but the ipod is the most popular one around. You can put any mp3 file you have, whether downloaded or existing in your library, into any mp3 player. Most of the time, these mp3 devices are what you call "plug and play" devices, meaning that you can just connect them to a computer's USB port and start moving mp3s from the computer to the device. An ipod though, comes with some software to help you manage your music library, and facilitate moving your files into the ipod.

Nothing, its all an mp3. Ipod just cornered the name market.
Remember, before the ipod, mp3 was the name used by all, but when the ipod caught on it too over the name.
This same thing happened when the Jeep came out. Anything that resembled a Jeep, but not quit a truck was called a Jeep, because the term or phenomenon "SUV" had not caught on yet, but a Jeep is an individual vehicle all its own.

the biggest vast difference between an Ipod and the different MP3 participant is that when tunes are on the gadget, Apple makes shifting files off the Ipod complicated. in case you do not care to workout this function it doesn't truly count number. some MP3 gamers do not help the AAC format, which Apple does. i in my opinion favor a non-Apple gadget, as i go with some thing smaller than an Ipod and do not experience i favor to carry each and every music in my library rapidly.
