Apple's 30GB Black iPod Video offers music and video in a slick package!

by jps246, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Nov 27 '07
Pros: Intuitive navigation, Search function, Crisp/Bright screen, iTunes
Cons: Scratches easily, Somewhat hefty, Price
After having an iPod Nano for a few years, I figured it was the time to make the jump to a full-sized iPod so I could have more storage space and so I could watch videos on the iPod. Yeah, the price was quite a bit higher than my old Nano, but I was ...

Be Like Everybody Else: Get an iPod Video

by trust12345 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Feb 17 '07
Pros: Sleek, sexy, fantastic sound, nice quality screen/display, good menus
Cons: Rather pricey; stock headphones; ruins your whole 'non-conformist' thing
I’ve used an iPod (from one make or “generation” to another) for more than five years. When my previous iPod fatally broke after a little tumble (major con to these devices: they are built to break, as stockings are built to get runs), I ...

Grand Daddy of portable music for a reason

by twofish72 , May 28 '07
Pros: LOTS of accessories available, very good sound, todays standard
Cons: a little expensive, surface delicate
Some time ago, I got myself and iPod. My fiance already has one for a long time but I have avoided the MP3 player craze for so long (Apples MP3 wonder is in it's fifth generation and there are countless products out there that compete in the market...) ...

Best Thing for Music Lovers!

by haloman , Sep 24 '07
Pros: Sleek and slender frame, listen to music and watch movies wherever and whenever
Cons: Cost and Durability
I have always wanted to get an MP3 player all my life. The trouble was I didn’t know what kind of what brand to get. My friend got the first ipod that came out and I thought that it was the coolest thing ever. Then throughout the years newer ipods ...

Hard to beat for the money a lot of flaws...

by fredfunktified , Aug 31 '07
Pros: Good battery life, smaller than the Zune
Cons: Scratches easily, poor menus/software, eq sounds horrible, lcd too small
For the money this music player is one of the best available, however, there are a few things Apple could have improved over the prior generation models that they didn't. Issue 1: The LCD is too small for normal viewing. This ipod is a "video" model ...

A sleek, sexy mp3 player that is very delicate

by michaelkc316 , Nov 14 '07
Pros: stylish easy to use
Cons: expensive, breaks easy, battery sucks
One word APPLE, just the name catches people to buy the best selling mp3 player on the market. But do the cons out weigh the pros? I myself am a apple iPod owner. I started out with the forth generation 20 gigabyte iPod and now the owner of the Apple ...

Great Investment For Those On The Go

by mikef91 , Apr 16 '07
Pros: Ease of transferring music, ease of use
Cons: Scratches real easy, stock headphones could use an upgrade
I recently purchased my first Apple Ipod product, the 30GB video version. I have had two previous MP3 players, both of the flash variety, and this is a major upgrade. Kind of like going from a Yugo to a Ferrari, if you catch my drift. First, it is ...

I Heart My iPod Video

by sara_h , May 13 '08
Pros: Slim design, long battery life, lots of memory.
Cons: Bulky, smallish screen.
If your going to keep up with the Joneses you can't walk around sporting the iPod Shuffle or some off brand Mp3 player. No, you must have a sleek and shiny iPod Video. It says "Hey look at me, I'm a real digerati." Sure it's a bit bulky and the screen is ...

I love my iPod 30 GB
by kittybarrow ,Dec 06 '07
Pros: VERY reliable, easy & clear to read, easy to navigate
Cons: expensive to purchase all of the accessories that are needed.
I was given the iPod 30 GB as a gift last year and I love it!

I teach spin class and find it easy to see and read and navigate from song to song in the dark.

I have dropped it MANY, MANY times and it has never faltered on reliability.

I have only downloaded one movie from iTunes. When I found out that it didn't come with all of the extras that a DVD comes with, I decided to just download my DVD's from home onto it.

IPod Video
by justinlc316 ,Nov 16 '07
Pros: Very user friendly, lots of storage space, compact
Cons: low battery life (for videos), break fairly easily
The latest craze in music has been the MP3 player with Apple's IPod leading the way. The IPod is a wonderful invention, it can hold over a hundred times the number of songs than its predecessor, the CD player, and is only a fraction of the size. It is incredibly user friendly with an easy to understand menu. They can also play music videos, TV shows, movies and even play some games! However, these things usually come with a price. The IPod is very expensive with prices being over two hundred dollars. There are also several other flaws such as a low battery life with extended use of the video feature and they are also prone to breaking. They way you get music can also be difficult, you can go online and buy music at Apple's ITunes, but many people download music illegally. You can also transfer music from CDs onto your IPod. However, it is easy to keep track of all of your music since it is all stored on your computer. The Ipod is a impressive device and will only improve as more applications come out for it

nice and reliable piece of gadget

Pros: sleek design, durable, good sound, ample of storage
Cons: Easy to use, menu's could be improved, randomizing songs can be playlist basis
I exchanged my coby video play for an ipod and I am happy again. The sound is good, battery life could be better, but can not complain. It could be improved but still a the best in the market out there.
