Apple's iPod - Pure Simplcity

by androoos Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 17 '03
Pros: Small, FireWire transfer is lightning fast. Flashy, yet simple.
Cons: MusicMatch Jukebox is awful. Ephpod is the way to go. Read on.
I have to Justify my Love
I had to have one. When you first see an iPod, you wonder how some people can be so addicted to them. It's a little white box with a dial on it and a small LCD screen. What's the big deal? The big deal is...

Pros: The best MP3 Player in the world
Cons: None
The Research
If you're reading this review, you're looking for a good MP3 player. You're staring at the $500 price tag of the 20 gig iPod and saying "Man, that's just too expensive." You may even have surfed around looking for a better deal,...

iPod is iMazing

by musikboy , Oct 14 '02
Pros: An icon of design that is amazingly beautiful in form and function
Cons: The software it comes with should be discarded and replaced with a free download.
I have been listening to MP3 based music for the last 3 years, I owned the very first Nomad Jukebox and just about every hard disk-based player since. The Apple iPod is a true masterpiece...but pricey. Just like other engineering marvels; the...

Apple's iPod lives up to all the hype!

by natedogg2000 , Apr 09 '05
Pros: Excellent sound, attractive, many features, easy to use, large storage capacity, portability
Cons: Pricey, no carrying case, software/communication issues, battery life, occasional crashes
I received the Apple iPod as a Christmas gift. It has turned out to be one of the bests gifts I have ever received. Why I like the iPod so much: Attractive design: The iPod has an attractive white exterior on the front with a shiny metal exterior ...

A few bugs, but a great MP3!

by lawgirl8673 , Sep 16 '02
Pros: Slim and light design, very functional controls, excellent sound
Cons: Pricey, horrible case, many problems with included MMJB software
When I read that Apple was going to release a 20GB iPod, I was estatic. I have always wanted an ipod because the other MP3 player I own (Archos Jukebox) is lacking in many features and functions. The bonus was that Apple was formatting it for PC, so I...

The *BEST* MP3 player yet.

by kweckstrom Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 15 '02
Pros: Amazing sound quality, 20GB storage, small, 20 MINUTE skip protection.
Cons: Useful for MP3 only, menu system not completely intuitive at first.
There's some things that make perfect sense. There's other things that make no sense at all. It makes sense for Apple to make a PC-Compatible version of a unit that will sell well to people who favor the platform. It does NOT make sense for that same...

Part of the best family of personal audio products available

by dmiller62 , Jan 16 '04
Pros: Best design; best audio quality; best user interface and useability.
Cons: There really aren't any.
I bought the 20G iPod several weeks after it was first released, in August 2002. (At the time, previous iPods had increased in size from the original 5G to 10G, and the bump up to 20G was enough to get me to jump in). Since then, I've filled it with ...

The iPod has given my music collection a new lease on life

by adamarket , Apr 25 '03
Pros: Large capacity drive, easy and logical navigation, quick battery recharge
Cons: Single fixed battery, shiny chrome rear casing scratches easily
$500 is a lot of money to spend on anything, especially a portable music player. I waited a long time for the iPod to come out for PC and bought an inferior MP3 player along the way (Nomad II). The iPod is actually worth the money. The 20GB capacity ...

The ipod: A life altering addiction

by jrrglobe , Jul 01 '05
Pros: All of your music with you, all of the time, great music management software
Cons: not really a 12-hour battery
It started out as a dream in a little cube box, and turn to a reality last year. No, a necessity. If I forget this nifty piece of equipment at home for even a trip across town, I notice quickly. I am an iPod addict! The things I knew before I ...

Good but not perfect.

by flyingmusic , Oct 24 '02
Pros: Easy to use, fast downloading.
Cons: Undependable battery (and unable to change battery), somewhat limited controller.
When I got the ipod, everything was good. I had 20G to play with, and I knew it was going to take only a few minutes to download it all.... and only an hour to charge the battery. :)
Once everything is ready, it is easy to be impressed (as well as...

20gb ipod(pc)

by hoss407 , Nov 22 '02
Pros: Slim, portable, sound, backlite, easy to use
Cons: doesn't work with all versoins of windows, software
I love this mp3 player. I was very unsure to hand out five hundred at first but the size and quality pulled me toward it. It has become my best friend in the world. I use it all the time and have had little to no problems with it.

You CANNOT go wrong!!

by aragond , Dec 15 '03
Pros: Hefty storage; intuitive to use; reliable;
Cons: MusicMatch sux! Battery issues (but this is everywhere); Expensive, but worth the money.
Well, maybe you can. I have read people complain about issues with theirs, and I was feeling a little cautious when I bought my iPod, but I've been fortunate enough to have no problems. The iPod is THE father, mother, grandfather and great-Uncle of ...

by sholakh , Mar 03 '03
Pros: Slim and Light Body, Sturdy controls, Easy to use interface, MusicMatch plus included
Cons: Learning curving getting to sync music with IPOD, Only Firewire connection w/ pc
The IPOD has renewed my love for my cd collection.
Having over 500 cds which have gathered dust for over 5 years, I am learning that this beautiful device can hold all my favorite and not-so-favorite songs.

Price: $500.00 on most sites...

No worms in this apple

by slicedpork44 , May 28 '04
Pros: too many to list
Cons: use of musicmatch, which is easily swappable with itunes
Let me break it down for you. The ipod is the most useful and most convenient electronic device you will ever use. I know it sounds somewhat lazy, but i find it a pain to keep switching cd's if i want to listen to different songs. So i thought I would ...
