Let's play a game, it's called...."count the ipods"

[kin0kin]

almost everyday I see about 3-4 people with an ipod while waiting for the bus, 5-6 people with an ipod in the bus, 3-4 more while getting down the bus, and one 2 more ipods when i got back home......we'd need population control like China pretty soon. Jobs, you've gotta stop breeding iPods....

I don't mind the popularity as much as the people who are pretentious and think they are superlative b/c they own an ipod.

I saw an iPod get confiscated today.... You should have seen the look on this kids face, it was a combination of terror and constipation. That leaves 1 less iPod on the face of the earth!

It sucked when I got my X5 taken away by the dean, I had to get my mom to check it out of the office

BTW, I saw about 30 ipod today in school. One in particular had only 10 songs on a 30gb iPod video.

I counted about 10 iPods on the plane last night (out of 150).

I'm out numbered at my gym. About a 20:1 ratio of ipods to non-ipods. I need back-up

I agree it's silly to feel superior due to using an iPod, but people feel superior for all sorts of silly reasons.

Showing off the white ibud cables... now that is ridiculous.

God. I love my iPod. And if I had a 30 GB iPod video...

I ask customers at my work what they're listening to and it's been a share of bands I've never heard of (maybe because I don't read pitchfork, nor watch MTV), or musicals that I have heard of thanks to my one musical-geek friend.

I got stopped once at Chili's with my CD player before the whole iPod explosion and some guy asked me what I was listening to. I found it friendly, but most of the people I ask seem really, really rude about it.

not surprising..apple sold 14 million in the last quarter alone i think..or some crazy number like that

 

[familyman]

do i see the start of apple crushing ibm?

 

[Kirosia]

I see only ipods, no-name tiny flash players, and ye old CD. And I swear, these people would kill you if you tried to separate them and their ibuds.

Lets see... Majority of people I see with DAP's usually have any type of iPod but I do sometimes catch a person with a different brand DAP or using a PCDP. Almost most of the people that have the iPod's still are loving them with the iBuds. lol

Yeah that is what I meant...they think they are all cool to be flashing the white buds; apparently it's the cool thing to do
