mp3 player

[Welton Toffee]

Its the best phone I've ever had, I've transferred many songs between the phone and pc and bluetoothed them to many devices. The sound quality is brilliant, even when playing out of the loudspeaker. The camera is great. The inbuilt wireless receiver is quality, sat nav, the lot.

I've also got the 30GB Ipod which I've had for 2 years now and its been quality, not had a single problem other than Itunes really slows the computer

Same here, still going strong

People **** off iPods, but iThink (see what I did there ) they're quality. Only complaint I have is that the earphones that come with them are proper naff, but I've got a pair of Senheissers (only £18 or so on Amazon) and the quality is superb.

iLike (really got to stop this now...) to buy all my music on CD anyway, so I don't download anything bar the odd track off the iTunes store.

You cant take music from your ipod off onto the laptop which is then freely distributable.

And itunes is absolute gash.

Explain?

Got a free 2 GB Zen today when i bought a new Dell online for the folks for Xmas, im sure i paid fot it some how , but hey!

iTunes used to be the best out there, but now the Zune software has overtaken it. But the best MP3 service out there right now, is Amazon MP3. Beats Zune and iTunes hands down.

Plus it is all DRM free and can be had in a lossless codec if you so desire.

I'm sure there are ways

I'm sure there are ways

I've had an ipod for years and i've never found a way of doing it because once the song is on the ipod it is compressed into .aa3 format or something like that?

But it only takes me 30 seconds to download a new copy of the song with Aresgalaxy so I dont necessarily find that a problem

Exacto. And one humungous reason why I wouldnt buy an ipod from snidey apple. They even tie you to using itunes. Wrong O'Wrong.

Lads, you honestly-honestly think its impossible to get music from your ipod/itunes to say, .wmv or .mp3 format?

Google is your friend in that respect. ipodpctransfer.com - One of many. I have never used it but it will be possible.

Its shouldnt be restricted by the manufacturer.

I agree. But if your feeling rebellious there are ways around it

 

[chicoazul]

By breaking the law.

Im classing that as grooming me you monster.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I would like to take this moment to state that I would never encourage anyone to break the law.......

buy a nintendo ds and an r4 card, turns it into an mp3 player, ebook reader and plays backups of your favourite games.

can even download an iplayer that turns the touchscreen into an ipod dial.

Mind popping over to my DS thread and telling me how to do it?

But the Zune is not the best mp3 player out there. By a country mile the best mp3(and all media) players are made by Archos.
I love Archos and after I get a head unit for my car that will accept my Zune, I'll leave the Zune in the car and buy another Archos.

Archos basically work like a portable harddrive and are usb2 with no software required. Just plug it in, it pops up as a portable drive and you can drag and drop away. You can also play by folder etc so you don't need to religiously mp3tag your mp3's so they sort properly on your player (which is a MAJOR ballache on most new mp3 players).

Read the reviews. Get an Archos. DON'T BUY AN iPOD, THEY ARE [Poor language removed].

Archos - why and which ones should I be looking at purchasing?

what happened to your first Archos mp3 player?

where are these Archos reviews you speak of?
