I have an ipod and it fucking rocks. I'm glad to know about that $99 replacement thing. Midiscs blow fucking whale nuts compared to ipods.

i like how quickly people have their opinions swayed on here.
anyway, you'd be doing yourself a disservice to not buy an ipod, as its the best mp3 player on the market.

I'd be doing myself a disservice to spend 300-500 dollars for something I don't need at all.

yes, it definately is a middle school hide-from-my-mom classic.

I want an MP3 player as I do a lot of travelling and hate carrying CDs around with me. I want something small and light that just fits in my pocket. I want it to be easy to use good at what it does. The iPod seemed like that. Then I saw the video and it didn't seem like it. Oh man. I'm confused now. Do I get the iPod or the Zen? I hear wonderful things about the iPod all the time and the only thing I've heard about the Zen is posted below/above. iPods are expensive but very good. Creatives are cheaper so I can have more storage plus they'd allow me to record. That'd be great for recording mixes and stuff. What do I do?

i don't think the shocker is that the batteries need replacing. it's that the battery is 100% proprietary, and it's IMO vastly overpriced.

Don't buy a minidisc!!
Sony stopped making MD's a couple of weeks ago! So I guess the medium will be dead pretty soon! :-(

why do people hate apple?
i don't know... i'm no apple fan, i'm no microsoft fan, i just use a mac because i like it and i don't want to change to a pc, but for a question of os and habit mostly.
i can't say i never had any problems though.
i hear people saying apple computers don't have all the problems pc's have... well, either i have bad luck, or have no skills, either both worlds are full of problems.
i do have to reformat like twice a year, and now i'm worried about a kernel panic problem that already happened to me (and gave me a kind of depression) in june. i read mac os 10.1.5 was buggy. someone at the hotline also told me it could have been the extra RAM bar i added. i don't know. it stresses me a lot, i don't even know as i'm typing if a kernel panic will happen on the next second, in a week, a month, or never.
now as for 10.1.5, i'd have to get mac os 10.2 or 10.3. which is a paying upgrade. that's nasty from them, they could (should) have made a 10.1.6 upgrade so people who don't want to buy 10.2 or 10.3 could get a stable, problem-free platform (now don't get me wrong, 10.1.5 isn't a nightmare either... it is pretty stable, like all mac os x, but it has bugs...). i will probably get 10.3, but i certainly won't pay for it. i don't like paying something for my computer. it seems to me like paying for potential problems. besides it is all far too expensive.
now, if you read all that, you'll probably think "apple sucks! get a pc!" (or, even, "a real computer", pretending macs aren't real computers... just go fuck yourself with your computer racism). i still don't want to switch to pc for that, because i like mac os, and also because nothing proves me that i wouldn't have as much (or even more) problems on a pc. after all, i never had any virus on my mac, and none of my friends who have macs get half of the problems i get.
i think someday, i will quit computers forever because i'll have had enough of it. if i can. to be freed of all this depressions,

i think someday, i will quit computers forever because i'll have had enough of it. if i can. to be freed of all this depressions, anxiety, and all trouble i get when i have a problem (fortunately it's not that often and most of the time it resolves quite well... by reformating). it is one of the many things i'd like to be freed of, when i'm fantasming about my fancied "next life"... (ha... ridiculous? yeah, probably) - - - my macs have gave me much more good times than bad times to me all over the years i've been using them, but when i get a problem i totally panic and get depressed and suicidal thoughts (i'm not even really exaggerating) and i won't ever be using a computer again.
(and that might happen absolutely anytime now, of course)
...now all that 6.5 MB video just shows that the iPod batteries are defective/not reloadable or something? i didn't see it but it is really worth downloading? i don't care anyway iPods are too expensive for me.

"The question is, are there similar issues of the same magnitude with other major mp3 players?"
i have a Nomad jukebox2, it comes with a rechargable battery...can be replaced for 50 dollars (a bit steep if you ask me)

well if you get depression from your computer crashing then you might as well pay for 10.3 Panther. Besides its not an upgrade, its almost an entirely new operating system... which seems to speed everything up too.
Ram could also be giving you problems, I bought some ram off ebay and my computer crashed all the time, I took it out and it was fine.

I dunno, £40 or so seems reasonable- it works out cheaper than 2 years worth of 2xAA batteries :)
giginger: 10gb version is pretty cheap...

But for an extra £100 I could 6 times the storage on the creative! Plus the Creative also records which is damn useful.

nanotech: I'm afraid it's true! :-( Several stuff (like the new upcoming n5MD compilation for example) will be released on CD instead of MD simply because it's not possible anymore to press them on MD!

pantalaimon > the thing is, i will be even more depressed if i do buy 10.3 and that it doesn't solve the problem...
my problem could also come from RAM. i don't know if there is any way to check this...
the thing is, my computer lasted like 9 or 10 months (with the RAM) without any problems, then it had these problems, and then again 4 or 5 months without any problem!... it is really random... so i wouldn't know at all if the problem was solved or not by changing RAM or by switching to 10.3...
with this problem i can never know whether it's cured or not ' _ '
