    Love listening to the Thomm Hartmann show. Thought iPods were overrated until I got one for a birthday present several years ago. Now when I leave it home it's almost like when I forget my cellphone .

    Also, there are other music players that do not lock you into Apple products. (AAC is an apple format, and some iTunes songs are still only sold with nasty Digital-Rights Management attached.)

    When my ex and I were together, we bought a ton of music through the iTunes store, all of which we purchased through her Apple account. When we divorced, she later changed the password to her account - and 2 weeks later I was no longer allowed to play any of the songs I bought for myself. Thanks Apple! F-U too!

    Whatever player you go with, I recommend you buy your music from someplace other than iTunes. Amazon lets you buy royalty-free mp3s that'll play on any computer, device, can be easily burned to CD's, and never contain DRM. Anything and everything plays mp3 nowdays - but only apple devices play apple's files.
