I have been reading about a lot of shuffles being mysteriously found on the road, at the gym, even at a restaurant. You would think people would be more careful with their toys. Then again, I had a best friend who would have a new digital camera, and he would tell me he "found it on the...

so it is not a two piece cord then?

Hey guys, I finally have a 5g video ipod, 30 gig, and I am learning to use itunes. I have a question though... With itunes, I notice that if i just start listening to my music on my computer, when a new song begins it transitions into it. Bascially meaning, the old song fades out and the new...

Thanks, that makes sense.

Connect is a worthless piece of dung, I couldn't even burn several tracks I had purchased because of rights. Honestly, I have had it with Sony in general as far anything to do with digital audio.

I am actually jumping ship from a Sony HD3 to a Ipod G5...but I never knew the 4g's had hiss problems as well (the HD3 has a pretty bad hiss that finally drove me out of my mind and ending up selling it on ebay). Hopefully, the 5g ipod will not repeat what I just got rid of.

Ok I ordered a black one today, I just couldnt help it, Ive wanted an ipod for far to long and now the 5g in that sick looking black? I am in. Hopefully it gets here soon!

I think I am gonna give this a try...one quick question though-does the Ipod play mp3 files? Thats all I have is mp3's and i do not want to re download or re rip all my stuff. Thanks.

Sounds like a good deal to me.

I had a carbon for a month and loved it. but I took it back only cuz i wanted a player with more capacity. I am planning on buying another carbon soon.

Happy SEARCHing...

Well I went with one of ya'lls suggestions and it worked like a charm! Thanks everyone! I now have the most awesome ring tone selection, and I dont have to burn $2.50 a pop for em anymore.

Lo and behold, I have discovered LAME! Wow...what a difference. Thanks for the post, I never came across that web site.

If you want battery life you gotta go Sony. I have a HD3 that I listen to non stop. I fall asleep with it on all the time, thinking that I am going to have to charge it when I wake up. Nope...thing keeps humming. Screw Apple.

Mine keeps my coffee warm.

non of the above?

While I don't recommend cnet.com's editorials, I do like the fact that you can just type a product in on the search and when it pulls up, you can find a list of places to buy it from. I have found great prices using that method and they are stores that you can trust.

Ya'll totally rock. Thanks

awesome such as?
