Me, obsessed? Not really.

But the fact that I've gotten so many PMs about the PSP being better than the iPod because of it's more features and others saying the iPod can't play games is kind of annoying now. ;l

The iPod is a Music Player. *An iPod is an MP3 player. It gets annoying when people start categorizing by itself, lol. *

The Playstation Portable (PSP) is a handheld gaming machine.

Even though both support various types of media, they are not the same thing by far, yet people seem to think otherwise.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, the PSP...

If you’re not already familiar with Sony’s new PlayStation Portable (PSP), you should be. Released in Japan for under $200, the PSP takes one step forward and two steps back from Microsoft’s fall 2004 Portable Media Center devices, offering music (MP3/ATRAC), video (MPEG-4), photo (JPEG/etc.), and game playback capabilities - all in a beautiful, heavily iPod-influenced enclosure.


Sony executives have repeatedly suggested that the PSP will compete against the iPod - initially claiming a direct competition on features, but more recently opting for a less direct competition for luxury spending dollars. Not coincidentally, but oddly, Sony’s official PSP headphones and wrist strap are sold in iPod-signature white, even though the rest of the PSP hardware is jet black. (LOL @ Sony)


The PSP’s game and video playback are highly impressive, featuring graphics that absolutely humiliate Nintendo’s long running Game Boy platforms (:(). Sony’s choice to include MPEG-4 video support and MPEG-3 audio support almost make up for the facts that it left out Dolby Surround audio and the ability to connect the PSP to a TV. It is a portable game system without peer.


As Sony has now failed with both Walkman- and VAIO-branded products to effectively compete against the iPod, Sony is putting its full force behind the PlayStation brand as a means to take out both gaming rival ‘Nintendo’ and digital music rival ‘Apple’.

But the PlayStation Portable is no iPod, at least, not for the masses. Like so many other Sony products, the initial price tag doesn’t include the proprietary extras you’ll need to really use the device as a movie or music player. And they’re expensive.

PSPs do not include hard disks, as do today’s iPods and Microsoft’s Portable Media Centers, and instead rely on two proprietary storage media for music/video/photo/game playback. In other words, if you want to watch a movie or listen to music on the PSP, you need to buy special pre-recorded discs or separate memory cards, and most likely will need extra software to convert movies you own for PSP viewing.

The PSP also has comparatively weak battery life. Microsoft’s devices get between 7 and 22 hours of play time for video and audio, and the considerably more pocketable iPods run for between 8 and 17. Sony’s PSP is specced to run for 4 to 10 hours depending on whether it’s playing games, video, or music, and actually gets less than that depending on a number of factors, including UMD drive accessing and use of its built-in wireless game networking features. Under the most demanding circumstances, the PSP may run for under 2 hours on a single battery charge..

Music playback isn’t iPod-caliber impressive, either. I’m not impressed by Sony’s cheap-feeling headphones and remote controls that were custom-made for the PSP. It also goes without saying that the PSP doesn’t fit into a pocket as easily as an iPod. It’s considerably larger than an iPod, and for that matter, virtually any portable music player currently being sold.

Since so many companies now evoke the iPod’s name just to get media attention, it’s especially ironic given Sony’s previous Walkman history that the company has needed to use the iPod’s name to tout the PlayStation Portable as more than just a super-expensive Game Boy. :)

Just don’t expect a device that’s as elegantly implemented, or completely useful out of the box as the iPod.

And wth, psp's are better mp3 players youre saying. Well size for one thing, dont think so.

As a portable media device, iPod beats PSP hands down, but I must admit that PSP beats DS games-wise.

I mean, a 1GB stick retails at a minimum of £80? That's a total rip off, when you can get a 4GB iPod Nano for just £140 and a 30GB iPod Video for £220

Uhmm... :s Was that directed at me..?

I've owned more than 4 iPods (accidentally) and I have a Black 60 GB iPod Video that I received for Christmas. I've done more modifications to my iPods than you can even imagine.

I never said PSPs were better MP3 players either. o_O

and I'm not sure, but whenever I go shopping online the iPods always seem to be found under the MP3 section. Hmm... Interesting.

£80 for a 1Gb memory card, yes at there RRP but you can easily pick one up off the net for less than £50.

If I was on the go, I'd definatley have my PSP, its cheaper, more durable and se><y :p

Of course they are, because iPods are an mp3. It's just that with an iPod you have more thing added to make them better than ordinary mp3's.

Uhmm.. No. The PSP is more expensive than the iPod since you have to continue buying UMDs and Memory sticks to fully enjoy its features. The iPod, on the other hand, is ready for all you want to give it when it's out of the box. You can use your own CDs to upload music and your own DVDs as well. You don't need to spend money every time you want aother video or movie because a 20-60 GB hard drive is built in and no media card is required. ;)

It would help tremendously if you read my post before spewing stupidity all over it. It seems that not only did your fingers do the typing, but did your thinking as well.

I did not mean to compare the PSP to the iPod since they're both completely different electronics, but I've been getting many PMs with people saying the PSP is best "coz it plays games n da ipod dunt". In fact, I made a post about how it's unfair to compare these two yesterday.

Yes, the PSP can do more things at a price. You must surely know it's battery is nothing to brag about and neither is pricing UMD movies at prices higher than DVDs, which are more flexible.

The iPod is a music player with video thrown in as a bonus. The PSP is a gaming machine with many features which require one to spend almost twice its value to enjoy them.

You still have to buy the CD's in the first place to put things on an iPod (or burn them from somone else, witch is illegal anyway). Plus, an iPod can only play music.

I'm at loss to see why somone would spend 300 dollars just to listen to music when they could buy a cd player for a tenth that.

Yes, you do have to purchase CDs in order to have music on the iPod, but isn't that the same case with the PSPs and their UMDs?

If one had music already, they could easily upload it to the iPod. You do not require memory to store these things because of its large hard drive.

And the PSP is useful without games, memory, music, and videos? All which you have to purchase seperately. ;)

I agree about the iPod's screen being too small to watch videos, but the image is more crisp than a PSP's screen. Mostly due to the difference in size.

I'd enjoy the PSP but I wouldn't want to be carrying all sorts of memory cards and UMDs for games and music. ;p I listen to more music than I play video games and I really don't think 1 GB will satisfy my memory needs. :P

Well you've obviously tried to prove something, you've prolonged your argument.
Like I said, if you've bought a PSP your going to buy games for it, you don't have to, you can download them from the net aswell as movies and programmes. You can buy a 1Gb memory card for £45 and that alone can hold a steady amount of movies on it.
And yes, there two totally different media devices that support different features, and yet you've posted since page 2 because theres something you'd like to point out.

Like I said, if you've bought a PSP your going to buy games for it, you don't have to, you can download them from the net aswell as movies and programmes. You can buy a 1Gb memory card for £45 and that alone can hold a steady amount of movies on it.
And yes, there two totally different media devices that support different features, and yet you've posted since page 2 because theres something you'd like to point out.

Of course I tried to prove something, lmao. If and when compared, the iPod wins by a longshot. :8

Ah, I see Fluffball is a great example of how ignorant people can be about electronics. ;D*edit*

You have your opinions, I have mine and if they were compared, on the music side, yes the iPod would win because that is its main function. On the Movie watching and gaming side, the PSP wins.

Lol, there is something to argue, the possabilities of what is a better media device, but both being two totally different things can make it seem a pointless argument.
I find arguing and debating fun, its not as if theres alot to do here ;)

Of course! With 16 million pixels, I'd be surprised if it didn't! o.O

Uhmm.. No. The PSP is more expensive than the iPod since you have to continue buying UMDs and Memory sticks to fully enjoy its features. The iPod, on the other hand, is ready for all you want to give it when it's out of the box. You can use your own CDs to upload music and your own DVDs as well. You don't need to spend money every time you want aother video or movie because a 20-60 GB hard drive is built in and no media card is required. ;)

I think these threads are ridiculous(sp?). PSP and iPod are DIFFERENT things, you can't compare them, like other game systems, you buy memory for it, so you can take it out and put it in someone elses to transfer, iPod's you don't transfer stuff. Ohand you can easily download movies of the internet, I know of a site I get music and movies for my PSP.

Also I don't think you've mentioned the fact PSP can go on the internet, and download straight off, and iPod can't. It may have iTunes but not a proper internet browser. These threads really are stupid.

I already answered most of your opinions on my post. I actually did mention that the PSP has online access.

It really won't hurt you to read before posting things that have been answered to before. ;l

Hmm,sorry if you did, I didn't see it. Forgive me ;[ My fault.

But how come your comparing these two? It seems strange to me. I'm downloading Family Guy onto my PSP right now aswell xD

Ohand I got white headphones, I was expecting black, and Sony have nowmade a Ceramic white PSP, as you probably know, which looks like a new iPod if you'd never seen a PSP before.
