I am in the process of updating my music library, so now is the perfect time for me to take a good hard look at this question: Do i still want an ipod?
I have been using ipod since they first came out, and they have been my only mp3 player. But now that i am wiping the slate clean, i want to know if i should break free from itunes and move on to something else.
Back in the day, there were no really good replacements for the apple products. Nowadays, however, it would appear that there are all kinds of potentials.... Sansa, Cowon, to list a few. I am sorry to say that i dont know that much about any of these companies though, so that is where my fellow head-fiers come in.
Do you think i should switch? If so, what should i switch to? I want a lot of space, so theres always the Zune, i like style, so theres the S9. But above all, i want quality. Some of these have line outs, most only headphone outs. I want the ones that will give the best quality with an amp, whether it be from mini-mini or LOD, like an ipod. If i stick with apple, i would go with a classic, not imodded because i don't have the money.
My wallet consists of... well... whatever it takes, but it goes without saying that cheaper is better as long as i dont sacrifice on quality. I dont need gimmicks, such as those on the itouch, i just want good, clean, high quality music.
I also want a player that will continue to be supported. One thing apple gives you is a customer service that you know will always be around.
Thanks in advance for the help and your time.
