[Lindzi]

[Mandarin]

I have I-pod mini but I'm going to vote I-pod only becasue I love ma mini :D

[Tommy]

Mp3, I-Pods have a better name than they actually are..

[Lindzi]

I have I-pod mini but I'm going to vote I-pod only becasue I love ma mini :D
Well Yeah I ment Ipods in general! Lmao ;)
And Squited what do you mean Sound better then they are? They're so much easier to use and all PRETTY! Lol

[.:OGGY:.]

I dont get what teh difference is because i dumb, i will say mp3 but i dont really know what an ipod is lol i know its a music thing and that its bid :s

[Craig]

i-pod bcos theyre v cool :) even tho i hav jus a 256 mp3 atm :(

[Dirgeofcerberus]

I have an ipod mini, and it ownz. =]

[Mr.Comedian]

An ipod is an mp3 player, ipod is just a brand name, nothing special!

[RedStratocas]

An ipod is an mp3 player, ipod is just a brand name, nothing special!

Actually, they arent. I pods dont hold mp3s, they hold a different type of file.

I suggest an MP3, because they are much easier, and I pods are overrated and expencive.

I was at best buy, and there was an mp3 player that cost the same as an I pod, held as much, a little smaller, and like twice the battery life.

The one thing I really hate is the headphones that come with Ipods that people wear, that you shuv into your ear! Those hurt like hell! :p

[GommeInc]

I prefer mp3, my brothers gf has an iPod and it is locked completely, you cant do anything and she has only had it a matter of days and it is a worthless device that you can't do alot with...

[TopDwag]

i havent been into music players latley, so i dont knopw what any of them are! sounds stupid i know, i know what a walkman is, and a cd player but thats it i think > what else is there mp3(whats one of them), i-pod(whats one of them) and is there owt else?

[joeyjo21]

I <3 my ipod mini.

[Lindzi]

Whoo Ipods winning lol!

[Rawr]

Ipods are better but there battery life are awful :(

[Magic Mushrooms]

iPod obviously, I have a iPod Mini and it's easy to work, get music and there is no problems along the way. :D

Yeah and check out my Avatar :)

[Magic Mushrooms]

Ipods are better but there battery life are awful :(

I disagree, I understand you might have a Different iPod but it takes 1 hour for an iPod mini to recharge with 18 hours battery life.

[=Sean...]

I don't see a difference other than price and brand...

[Georgia]

First I thought MP3 players but now im into I-pods

[Lindzi]

Am I the only one who thinks Ipods are easier and prettier? And Wooha! Ipods winning by loads!

[RedStratocas]

Prettier? Its a rectangle :p There are tons of mp3 players that have the same "Four side-90 degree angle" style :rolleyes:

Easier? I dont know how dumb you have to be confused about then next, play, previous, and on/off button.

Lol. People only have them, because they are the only thing they have heard of. I pods are the only music player that has a commercial, and that makes people think they were the first :P

[:Hazel]

I love my blue mini Ipod :D

Totally agree if people actually knew about mp3 players they would be alot more popular. Ok those of you who say iPods are prettier creative has alot more choices of skins/colors of mp3 players and have video players. My mp3 player has a longer battery life than an iPod/iPod mini *tested* can hold more songs is a tiny bit bigger but none the less gets the job done is not big and bulky. Also creative just let out more skins for their mp3 players. So imo mp3 players blow iPods out of the water.

[RedStratocas]

I want a zen micro. They are so cool looking. I pods look like turds compared to these :P How much can it hold? The one with the LEAST amount of compasity holds 2000 songs, which is more than enough for me. And it cost 101.42 in the UK.

[Drake]

Viva la creative mp3 players :D Ill post a pic of mine in a second

edit: here it is http://www.2and2.net/Uploads/Images/creative.JPG

pretty pic may take a min to load

[RedStratocas]

My mp3 right now is a creative, but its bad. Only 50$ (US currency, its like 30 in the uk). A nomad II. My birthday is coming up, so if my parents dont get me a zen micro, Ill just use the money I get from reletives to buy one.

I showed this a few months ago, and someone said it looked big :rolleyes: I guess thats because I didnt show anything (such as headphones) next to it. :D

[Drake]

Yeah I guess it does look big but its not Ill have to get my friends ipod and compare mine to his, actually I think iPods are taller but less wide

[Absently]

i'm gonna pick mp3 coz i've never actually seen an i-pod in real and i've never heard wat the music sounds like on them

[RedStratocas]

Yeh, yours is bigger, I think my mom's is the same. Its great though.

This is the piece of turd I have now. Its a creative, but its ment to be cheap.

[Drake]

Actually mine is only about about 1/3 of an inch wider other then that its the same as an iPod the picture is just really close

They're prettier cause of the colours! and easier I never said Mp3's were hard I just said that Ipods are easier.

[neopiandisney]

I would say iPod. It's done me well so far :) <3

[RedStratocas]

Mp3 players come in colors :s Crayons come in colors. Does that make them pretty? :p

I like these ones because they have cool colors, and they have a cool blue glow :d

And how much easier can an I pod be? Next, Play, Stop, Previous buttons. All you need. Only way I think it could be easier, is if it could read your mind on what you wanted it to do.

[neopiandisney]

:o I love those. I might get one of them now :D They look great :P

Mp3 come in colours? OoOoH I thought they were all the same lol, and yes crayons are pretty!

[RedStratocas]

Mp3s arent a brand name. There a million types of mp3 players. Sony, creative Iriver, and so many other companies make them.

[Chaz]

I-Pods they have games and clock dates calenders stopwatch they can also take photos ;) they also look nicer like I-Pod minis and u have a big screen so u can acctully see what u r doing! also all u do is put your finger on the wheel then it sees it and cranks up the volume !

[Craig]

iPods r v cool :)

[RedStratocas]

I put my finder on a button and the volume goes up :P Mp3's have those clocks, the zen has a calender, a to do list, FM radio, and a lot more. I can see what Im doing on my MP3 player. As for the games, my friend has an I pod, and says you cant listen to music at the same time.

A wicked awesome thing I red about with the zen micro, was you can make your own playlist on the mp3 player, so you dont have to skip songs and search around. Instead you put all the songs you listen to in around the same time, and you dont have to skip around, or even just look at your mp3 player.

Ipods u dont even have to press the button to change the volume which is great :) u just swirl ur finger around the wheel. And you can listen to music whilst playing games, u can make playlists too.

[Rachi]

mp3 player<3


Lol
YEAH ;D
They r better than ipods
Ipods only play 8 hours with 2 batteries
Mine plays bout 20 hours :o

[Fingerboots]

Right, okay but isn't the iPod just an mp3 brand? I wouldn't know, I haven't got one would like an mp3 though x]

[RedStratocas]

Actually, they hold something else. Mp3 players hold mp3 files, and i pods hold something else. I forgot.

Swirl your finger around the pad? Thats wierd. I think its easier to push a button then move your thumb in circles, but whatever floats your boat.

[Fingerboots]

Ooh, is it iTunes or something?

[RedStratocas]

Ooh, is it iTunes or something?

Yeh. Thats why you cant put downloads from I tunes on CD's, but you can put mp3's on CD's :P

[Fingerboots]

Ahh I understand now ^^. I want an mp3 player in that case. I've heard a lot of "My iPod is broken" from people anyway, I don't know if they're reliable.

[RedStratocas]

Yeh, I hear that a lot too. Thats why you have to have I tunes, because other download sites where you can download music (legal or illegal) dont have the type of music file that can go on I pods. Only I tunes.

[joeyjo21]

Mp3 players hold mp3 files, and i pods hold something else. I forgot.
Ipods can hold regular mp3 files, tracks from normal CD's, windows media files etc.

[RedStratocas]

Ipods can hold regular mp3 files, tracks from normal CD's, windows media files etc.

Actually, it converts them.

[neopiandisney]

If you're still unsure of what to get, I would go to a shop near you selling different mp3's and iPods and ask to see them working etc. If they would show you or not I do not know, but I suppose it's worth a try :P

[:Hazel]

I must admit I did have alot of mates and family etc. complaining to me about their Ipods breaking. I still went and bought one though. Mine has been fine ;)

[Punk Rock Star]

I would vote iPod, becuase iPod can hold a lot more songs than a normal MP3 player, I am reffering to mine, which can hold like 30 songs, tops! I am getting an iPod when I get enough money saved up!

Well, yours is just bad. There are mp3 players that hold more and cost less than I pods.

[Fingerboots]

30 songs? That's pretty bad. My friends mp3 player can hold 5,000 I'm pretty sure, will ask.

[Jordan3]

I have a silver 6GB iPod Mini.

Gods best ever creation.

[Proof!]

Ipod's are better of course hold more music and stuff :)

[fun.in.da.sun]

I have a ipod shuffle and i cant get into the Itunes music store to download any songs and ive tried napster but apple and napster dont work together so i cant download tunes!!! I only have ones off c-d

[Drake]

Ipod's are better of course hold more music and stuff :)

HAH! iPods have more storage then mp3 players! Thats really funny! Creative makes mp3 players which can hold more then 30k songs my mp3 player atm hold 18k

Edit: Stargazing 6gb? My current mp3 player is 30gb same size same color

[hedgeog325]

hmm lol
i have an iriver mp3 + dont have ipod so..
i prefer mp3 <3

[-2K-]

They're the same aren't they? Just that I-Pod is a make of a MP3.. anyway, I prefer MP3.

[Fingerboots]
