iPod vs other mp3 players

[kritof]

Anyone have an opinion regarding iPods? I want an mp3 player, but was a little put off by this article. http://money.aol.com/smoney/general/canvas3/_a/10-things-your-ipod-wont-tell-you/20060511110909990001Read more... )

I have a 30gig ipod video that I recieved as a surprise gift. I've always thought about buying a mp3 player but could never decide what was right for me. I have a Rio300 or 600 from back in the day before ipod and I decided that I would just wait until there was a choice that I felt was best

I haven't had that bad experiences with my iPod. I have 20GB iPod and I've dropped it a few times walking up stairs or just about on campus and it still plays fine. I am in no way saying that if I drop more times, it won't cease to live. Any electronic device has its limits. The new video iPods seem a bit more fragile as my friend has one and we traded iPods for a few weeks
