handbrake is a good tool (for macs & beta version for pc-google search) to covert dvd to ipod format & drag to itunes or your ipod directly.

It depends on what type of device you would want to listen to and what you're doing. For example, if you were cleaning your house moving around from room to room, I might suggest the ipod nano. Plus, you can take it with you outside you[re home. I have one and I would strongly reccommend checking it out.

Good point. I don't really see any huge differences between ipod and Zune except for the radio thing. I used to love to listening to the radio but when I bought my iPod I only listened to the morning shows because all the songs I wanted to listen to were on my iPod and I didn't have to get through commercials to listen to them. So I guess if you just absolutely need you a radio, get a zune. However, I'm not a fan of the Marketplace. The subscription service sucks. If you get rid of it all you songs go too. But if that's just what you're looking for then more power to you.

Yes keep your iPod Classic! It holds way more and so much easier to use!!! Mine broke, so sadly I had to replace it with the iPod Touch 64 GB. It doesn't hold nearly as much and has functions that I already have on my smartphone.

It depends on what kind of user you are. I have a 16GB, and I feel like it is enough. BUT I still use an iPod classic for my 6000-some songs. I use the touch only for my favorite music, my TV Shows, a few Movies, and lots of apps. Its like my PDA. But If you want to hold lots of stuff on it, get the 32GB. It also depends if you have the money for it. I didn't have the money for a bigger one. But if you have the money, and you want to play it safe, and think that you are going to fill it heavily, then get the larger one. But if you don't have the money, and KNOW that you won't put that much stuff on it, then get the 16GB.

HI Anne, I got the 4g nano for Christmas. My first Ipod. It's pretty cool. Anyway i have fit 7 hours of video(movies), 1 hour of video podcasts and 130 songs all at once and still had 300mb free. I think for 50 bucks more it's well worth it to double the size. I made my own movies from my dvd's so i left off credits to save space. not sure if an itunes movie would take more space. Hope tha helps

My justification for iPod is the ease and convenience of content purchase, particularly video. iTunes is seamless in this regard, and I am able to purchse the sort of content I like (typically science and history documentaries) with ease. iTunes has a lot to choose from, and the iPod Touch is a great experience for this.

I'm going to ask you one more question if you don't mind. If I just want the best player I can find to listen to music and don't care about lists, album art, interfaces or anything else. I just want to put my songs on the player and listen to them in the order they come up, which do you recommend? (Can you tell I'm an old lady and just love to listen to music? LOL!) All that matters to me is good sound, ease of putting songs on the player, number of songs I can add to the player and how long it will play music on one charge. Even the Cowan 160 GB player sounds interesting to me.

I have a 2nd generation Nano, a 3rd generation Nano Shuffle and now a 6th generation Nano. I mostly use them for exercise and the 3rd generation is absolutely the best of all. It's the easiest to use because the controls are on the headphones so you can change songs with a press of the button. Because it's so compact, I can clip it to my clothing so I barely realize I have it on. The 2nd generation with the trackwheel can be a pain to exercise with. I haven't used the 6th generation Nano enough to really comment yet.

Unless you actually used the video playback features on your old Nano, you should definitely get this Nano. I love it, the design is sleak and I love being able to clip it on, and the touchscreen rocks. However, I have to say my fav iPod is the Classic. If the limited space bugged you on your old Nano, get the Classic.

Also, you can download iTunes for free from Apple to try without having an iPod. Take a test drive with it and see how it works. This may help answer some of your questions. http://www.apple.com/itunes/overview/

My bad. I'm such a rookie. I have ordered my ipod thru Amazon, but only seen it up close in a display counter. So at some point I will truly realize what is small, big, heavy and delicate. Thanks!

Ipod uncertain. If it works will only keep it charged an additional hour at most. Does not work with IPAD at all. A much better unit is easyaccess keeps my ipad charged for a day plus my phone with both being on all the time.

If you are looking for an ipod for MUSIC and not for a lot of frills and apps- then the Nano 7th generation is perfect! Very reliable and great quality.... but asside from the radio and the pedometer, it does not have too many other functions. I am super happy with mine. It has blutooth -so it can be played through external speaker... no other model does that (except ipod touch).

Hey - I too am in Birgitta's position, trying to decide whether I should stick with iPods or go over to Zune. I currently own a iPod Mini and did not like how the battery went bad and now can only be played once before the iPod says that the battery is low and goes out. I am trying to decide whether to get a 80G Zune or an 80G iPod classic. My main question is - being an iPod owner, I have put so much time into my iTunes organizing it, putting in cover art, etc.If I was to buy a Zune, can I get everything out of the iTunes, including cover art?thanks
