The remote is awesome. I put the smaller-than-ipod main unit in my pocket and have the remote to manage it. No digging in my pocket for the main unit and running my thunbs around in circles like an idiot. It's much more discreet and much classier. If you're worried about looks, this is the best looking DAP I've seen, especially the brown one I showed in the picture. It's class.

Yeah. For some reason most new album art isn't on iTunes yet. The last Walkmen CD is, and so is Arcade Fire, but that's like it for CDs from the last 14 months or so.

Photo = lame. I don't get why people are all excited for photos on their cell phones and now their DAPs. The picture quality is ass and it's just all around lame anyway. Don't get me wrong - the I-Pod is definitely a great product and you're definitely not making a big mistake buying one (just not as good as you could have done is all, at least for my uses), but I just think the whole photo thing is a bit much/lame.

Aestetically pleasing? Yes. Hell I'm still trying to find the ICube.

Easier to use? More Elegant no.

I'm a Windows user with an oldish computer, so I can't even use Itunes if I tried. All I do is plug mine into a USB port and drag and drop. Apple doesn't support as many music types as mine, and mine just plain has better sound output, which is what matters.

Though I guess I agree with you, Apples stuff looks cool, but it doesn't make it the best. I just need to validate my cheap looking Iriver.

Patrick del Poker Grande
01-21-2005, 01:28 PM
Yeah - I didn't even get into the features, which is where the M3 absolutely destroys the I-Pod. More/better file types, better sound, easier connectivity to any computer, flash upgradeable, better battery, the list goes on and on. It shows when the main argument from I-Poders is that it looks cool, which IMO, the M3 looks better and more elegant. That's highly subjective.

sure there is. I'm a professional musician, and from time to time I get to do cool stuff like tour europe for 3 months. anyways, when you're on the road in a band, most of your time is not spent doing coke off some chick's stomach. it is spent driving between gigs. this is an inescapable Fact Of The Road. I had my ipod with me last time I toured, and it made all the difference in the world having that much music to choose from. no way I could have brought that many cds with me.

There's really no semantics involved.

It's cool to have all your CD's back upped for people who are really into music. I'd say a quarter of my CD collection is irreplaceable, I own tons of out of print stuff.

Anyway, this is like having a nice television or whatever. And these things are only like $500 bucks; which isn't that much loot.

The point is - why have you decided that there is a correct size that is "necessary?" To some people 5GB is just as unnecessary as 60GB. Maybe sfer uses a rediculously high bitrate for his MP3's so 60GB is really like 40GB to someone else.

Dude it really has nothing to do with semantics. It has to do with how many GB you think is useful to anyone. You think no one has any use for 60+. Sfer says he does. That's really all there is to it.

I already mentioned I was done with this thread in my last post, but since this is pretty much unrelated....

If you don't see all the semantics crap that was going on, you're blind.

"You said need"
"You said necessary"

'The only thing that's necessary is food, water, shelter, etc.'

If that's not semantics, I don't know what is.
Sorry for posting again, but give me a break.

Please. Half of this thread is AngryCola saying I don't "need" 60 gigs and then crying semantics foul when IndieMatty points out that you actually "need" very few things.

I saw all the semantics stuff. I'm saying that that is not the crux of the issue. I think we all know what you meant by "necessary." We simply disagreed with what that limit is.

You obviously don't understand semantics then.

I said need.. I wasn't being completely literal.
As in, I WASN'T using semantics.

I complained when somebody tried to tell me the meaning of the words I was using. Then they tell me you don't really "need" anything.

THATS semantics.

PS-
I don't cry. I'm a man.

That's my point, everyone knew what I meant, yet they proceeded to act like I meant it in it's most literal sense.

My apologies for posting on this thread again.

The point is, there is abosultely no reason you need to have ALL your music on your ipod at once.

There is just no way that is necessary. Period.

[/ QUOTE ]

It is for some. Period.

While I have no interest in putting my ENTIRE cd collection on an iPod or similar, I wouldn't buy anything that wasn't capable of holding a SUBSTANTIAL portion of it.

mwahaha...

Patrick just know that you can single handedly revive these boards by either mentioning your MP3 player instead of an IPod or mentioning Chipotle. I actually thought about that during your demonstration againist IPods, and sure enough chipotle.

Now get skilled enough to guess how many replies each post will have since the same thing happens every single time.

I need to digest and think about where it ranks among the top 10.

It's up there. Pretty weird is I went to one of the BK's that was shown on the Apprentice last night. I felt a bit dorkish getting the same thing. I fell right into Mark Burnett's devilish scheme.

P.S. It was awesome and I usually hate "steak" burgers.

The only thing good about this post is that it produced the flame. Which is so hard to believe considering what a non-eventful topic it was.

Oh I get it flame = gay.

I agreee wholeheartedly. I suck for bringing that in.

More importantly is it lame that I want that BK Angus burger for lunch, that I saw on the Apprentice last night?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, it's Uberlame, mainly because there's all of 0% difference between the Angus beef and the regular swill they throw on the buns.

I didnt really read this thread but Im sure it has nothing to do with iPods.

Are you sure this is 3rd gen? I have a 4th gen 20 gig. What does yours do differently aside from having more space. I saw that it has a color screen, does it show the album covers, too? Just curious because I always wanted to see the album covers for some reason.
