shut up! mines never broke mines got dents in it mines even before the mini :@
I'd choose the zen.
My friends iPod Nano hs something wrong with the sound, it comes out too loud in the right ear and distorts.
My brothers girlfriends iPod locked and could never be played with again. It just sat there, always on.
The only good iPod is the mini "/ But Apple stopped them and anything after them were crap. Although my brothers girlfriend's iPod was a mini, which was also engraved. Plus, as said, there is a reason to why they give free replacements "/
And the iPod should never of existed but Apple were using power to win the rights to make a music side to the Apple Company, even though they said they would never and now there is a nice argument with 2 Apple companies fighting about it.
gommeinc your ****ing me off now :@
And why? I think someones angry... :rolleyes: Is it because I won that argument? The iPod is ok, but not the best. I find the Creative Zen better than the iPod, at least it is ment to exist "/Quote:

How can I be making it up when I have seen these broken iPods :rolleyes: My brothers girlfriends iPod was brand new you tardis! It just stopped working! Jeez, and you say I make up things :rolleyes: My friends Nano hasn't even been dropped, he keeps it in the case it comes with "/Quote:

Plus, I have 2 Creative MP3 Products and have played with iPods in the past, sound and quality is best with the Creative Zens. Games and strange features is good for the iPod.
fact is i aint makin up BS alot of the stuff in my house is from apple as my dad loves the company to much and i mean way to much, he keeps track of all the news from apple etc, so don't even think of trying that wtih me
I am confused, so your dad has records of my friends and my brothers girlfriend? You made up BS about their iPods not being broken "/ Plus, it is true that the iPod shouldn't exist. Here is the low down:Quote:

They made the Apple iPod, which is something to do with music. And ever since, there has been legal battles between the 2 companies, and I back up the company that is right and not wrong, one reason why I hate iPods is because the company behind them used their 'power' because they are a huge company to see over run the samller Apple company so they can have music.

The funny thing is though, they don't get money. They replace them for free. Which must mean the iPod is extremely cheap to buiild (which is probably why they break anyway) or Apple are stupid enough to not care or don't mind wasting money.Quote:

My brother has an ipod video, it has tons of problems. And no one say "then look up directions to fix it"-- the point is that it isnt supposed to be broken in the first place
For the record Gomme is right, the iPod technically never should have existed.
iPod, my mate's Zen broke he got a replacement and it broke again so he never got it again!
So I'm geussing your saying I should get the Creative Zen? Any good things about them seeing as you have a Creative? :]Quote:

You can do that on the iPod too :]Quote:

Indeed. The Creative Zen Vision M which I think Craig was thinking about is good and I had the Zen which looked like the mini, which was called Zen, nothing else.
With my Vision M you can also record TV straight onto it apparently, although I have yet to try doing that...
lol never knew that x]Quote:

They're easy to use, Zens are harder and I don't even know how to work them.
iPod are a more trusted brand, who invented the Zen anyways?!
iPod were around first, so they would be the most developed software.
I have an iPod and I love it.
a steel frame woo thats good! u get all finger prints over the back then!:PQuote:

Zen had the idea of a click wheel or touch pad i think it well the thing u use to pick songs and stuff zen thought of that and apple stole
and zens were around first if u look and has more MP3 players out
Steel frame? Wow how great that will be for the player! Imagine the sounds quality because it has a steal frame!Quote:

They're for more sexier than an iPod.
iPods break easy, and apparently if you sit on a Nano it snaps...
Creative Labs created the Zen ;)
And if Apple stole it, that's two major things I dislike about them "/
i droped my ipod 10 centimetres from the ground it broke! My friende has a zen and it dropped even hiher it dident brake
It's not what we like Craig, its what you like ;).
ye search it on bbc.co.ukQuote:

No I am not requesting which one to get based on your opinions but based on the facts that are presented of which would be a better, more suitable and more efficient music player
iPod Mini's are pretty good and robust, I dropped it plenty of times out of my pocket and it was fine.. until it went through the washing machine.
Never knew iPod stole Creative patent technology :o More reason to dislike them!Quote:

If you can waite a little bit, I think soon Apple will come out with a true video iPod which will have a touch screen and a bigger display that takes up the whole front.
My friends have that video iPod that you were looking at and havent had problems.
If you are worried about scratches then get a case and you will be fine.
But if you can waite I would. This model iPod has been out for a long time and most of the rumor sites are hinting at a true video iPod in the near future.
Yeah the apple stores are the best. I was at one last week in new yorkQuote:

Serious. Never known them to put internet on Macs/Computers in store. I always thought they were trying to sell the computer, not the internet.Quote:

So the Creative Zen Vision: M is probably more pratical.
I think iPods are mainly big lumps of plastic nowadays, the Nano has a lump of plastic on the back that has been sprayed metalic. No wonder why it apparently snaps easily...
Zen, ipods can cause major problems and can break easily also Zen looks better @D
