Hah, some bitch wanted to listen to my music on the bus because her ipod had run out of battery. I said "NO!, it's your fault for buying an ipod you stupid piece of ****!"

Some kid's iPod 5g fell out of his pocket and broke while I was sitting in the courtyard with my ZVM today. It made my day.[/QUOTE]

3G iPods were awesome, back before they became the thing that everyone had to have.
And noen of that clickwheel bullsh[SIZE="2"]i[/SIZE]t either, touch buttons all round!

Mine still works, bar a battery swap 6 months ago, which [B]didn't[/B] cost the earth, as I had been led to believe.

whats wrong with ipods? they're the best thing to happen to music since teh walkman.

It's an inferior product.

It's not a bad product. It's simple, easy to use, and does it's job. But it's inferior to other offerings from companies like Cowan, Creative, and Toshiba. All of the companies have players that are superior to the iPod in some way, but the iPod gets all of the attention.

All the iPod is is marketing.


I love my ZVM, eh.

DONT BUY WALKMAN

i brought a 20gb walkman, and soundwise it is awesome.

however, i lost the data cable, and to get it replaced cost me damn near £50 ($80) in premium rate calls, shipping and the cost of the cable.

because of this, if it breaks i will buy an ipod, since spares are readily avaliable, and im now boycotting all sony products.

Why didn't you just order it offline?


I didn't buy a Sony when I originally wanted an mp3 player because all of the Sony CD players I've had have sucked.

The problem with the ipod is that:

EVERYONE i know has either had to send theirs back to apple/the shop they bought it from to be fixed/replaced, or had to have a new battery.

If it's such and amazing product, why can't they put a removable battery in.

And i'll tell you why. Becuase all they care about is money.

It's like when you buy a printer. You buy the printer, and then you have to buy the USB cable, and then the ink cartridges, and then the paper, and then more ink cartridges.

And corkofski, was it just a large USB to small USB cable, or was it a special sony device only cable.

Because if it was the former, then you can buy those from PC world or something for like, £1.50.

Cool vid. 7days untill I see them.[/QUOTE]

That was awesome man. Writing on the Walls isnt my most favorite song but its still a damn good song. I dislike Aaron's short pants though haha.

That happens with all players. It's a mass produced product, and there are bound to be a lot of duds. That's what a warranty is for.

As far as the battery goes, eh. It's not THAT hard to replace it yourself.

My friend has had 8 ipod replacements in the span of a year and a half.
Another has had 3
Another gave up on ipods after his 3rd, he switched to a sony.

That's just a handfull of people...

Creative and sony products are so much better

Your friend sucks.

I've had my mini for over a year and a half, and the battery JUST STARTED to crap out.

My sister had her mini for like 3 months and then the battery started to crap out.

Eh, maybe I'm lucky.

But my best friend's mini lasted longer'n mine, I think.

Wait, no, no it didn't. But pretty close.

It's because it's a Lithium Ion battery.
They've improved on it since.

I hope my battery craps out in my ZVM in the next year so it's covered in my warranty. I'm sure it will, because I use it 4-6 hours a day, 2 of which are usually video.

Goddamn!! It feels great to practice for 2 hours and nail nearly everything. I feel on top of the world today. :smoke:

because the calls were to sony because the part wasnt avaliable until november, and the only place i found not charging £70 when they got them in was phone order only.

for some reason, talking to the customer services supervisor for sony on one line and trading standards on the other got me a cable for half price in 2 days...

I should enter one sometime, if I ever get some mics... If I get the unemployment I applied for, while i'm in school. I got a bunch of things I need... I am gunna take drum lessons, buy a new cymbal pack, aax's are lookin to be my choice so far ($610 cdn, for 14, 16, 20", and a hard case). And possibly a mic or 2... I dunno. I have money set aside for cash while i'm in school, and if I get the unemployment, I can spend it.

How do you expect to get that much with unemployment?


And can you even get it while you're a student?

The only problem i've had with my iPod is the battery, after a good 2 years of not charging it efficiently.

Rechargable batteries die, it's a fact. You only hear about so many people needing replacement batteries because so many people have iPods.

Apple probably doesn't even manufacture the batteries anyway.

bored.

do i get out of bed, walk 8 feet to my pc, reboot it in xp mode so the network drives work, go back to bed nd listen to music on my laptop, or **** it and go on por

The new Tickle Me Elmo is retarded.

It's supposed to be a stuffed animal. A cuddly, huggable stuffed animal.
It's all hard and mechanic. You can't hug a robot.

I remember I cut open my Teddy Ruxpin and took out the speaker because I couldn't hug him. It was so frusrating. F[B]u[/B]ck the story telling.

My cat had to go to the vet.

I forgot what it was called, but he basically has a big, infected zit on his *** that has to be drained and removed and he has to get a shot and some antibiotics.

I have to pick him up at 5..I don't know how they're going to do it, he hates everybody in the vets clinic, especially when I'm not around.

My cat gets those on her lip sometimes. We just rub peroxide on it, though.




Speaking of vet...
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v51/CherryDoom/XXX3.jpg[/IMG]


Damn cat.

Sounds like a sebactious cyst



People ragging on ipods are morons. How much common sense is needed to realize when a single product revolutionizes a generation... it might just, [I]maybe[/I], be well done.


Ipods are the single fastest growing product, ever. The fiscal reports from apple on ipod sales alone are staggering. Literally a economic marvel.


To say that product is crap, is just down right idiotic.




Sony, Creative, Dell, etc.. they hold such a tiny fraction of the market on those devices it's a joke for them to even bother.

I almost had it.

It starts with an "A," and is super-commen on cats, especially ones that get into fights.

Ab..not an abyss, but something like that.

The vet thinks he got into a fight with a cat and ran away, so the cat scratched him in the butt.

He's such a chicken, it's not even funny.

Abscess...

Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

Why I can never remember that, I have no idea.

It was leaking all over the house, it was absolutely disgusting.

I would have squeezed it all out.

I can't resist doing things like that.



My Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra discography is done.

Nothing seems to be as energetic as Stompin' Down Beat Alley. Foo.




We're finally using the cheese my sister bought in Italy. And we're actually opening the wine she got, too. We still have three bottles of chardonay she bought in France three years ago.

He bites if you try and touch it, even a little bit.

And he never bites me unless I'm being a jerk to him.

And..there's no way I wanted to get that crap all over my hands and such.

Has it occured to you guys your ipobs might be crapping out because you dont take care of them? All the battery trouble is probably because you run theym dry time and time again, which is bad for any in-device battery. For the quality, price, and ease of use the ipod stands above all others.

Put a sock over his head.


No, for the price the iPod is not above all others.
The ZVM has a better battery life in both music and video, the screen can handle a lot more, and the interface is bascially the same as the iPod, because Apple stole it. The touch strip is extremely simple to use. Simpler than the wheel. It has a customizable EQ, accepts more formats, and is scratch resistant.

And oooh, the iPod 5.5g. Isn't that a little bit late? It's an attempt to make up for the mediocre 5g.

5.5g is the best price around.

And jos, I think the computer/internet has been 1000s of times more revolutionary then the ipod.

I just want everyone here to know, that TRUST BRINGS PAIN remember that, never trust your best friend or your girlfriend cause eventually they will both hurt you, like maybe they will just amke out with eachother, then the friend will say he's sorry even though its the second time he has done it to you.

Just saying it may happen (ya as you can see I am pissed)

Anyone watch the remember shakti concert? :(

White, I've been there before. Multiple times. I was never "directly" in it, but I've had friends do that many times, and for some reason, I'm always the one who walks in on it and has to tell the other friend. I hate it.



Oh god. My parents just got home. They decided to buy me a bed. I've told them 100 times that my room (it's actually a den) has no floor space as it is, with a single mattress on the floor. But this double bed will be "so comfortable, you won't need floor space."

I guess I have to move my drum practice station, guitar amp/guitar and keyboard all downstairs now. Yay. Now whenever I want to practice I just have to freeze in the basement.

man that must suck *** white.

Ahh..
I feel you.

Cept It only happened once, so I can't take the stage away from you.

It's all good dude, we're still best friends. You just gotta make a choice. I said **** it, because he liked her and she liked him, so I was like whatever. I told him that what he did was ****, but yeah, it's never happened again, because they're pratically married, and I have no girlfriend on my behalf after my string cheese incident.



How would I get a Linunx OS. I heard they were free...
?

And you know how when you go to Internet Cafe's they have like a whole new OS dedicated to gaming. Like it's a whole new program ish/Skin type thing.
Anybody know what I'm talking about?

I so want one or the other.

HAha if you never put trust in someone, how can you expect them to trust you?


And if you go through life never putting yourself on the line, you will end up cold misserable and friendless...

.. and most deffinetly loveless.


Love is a risk. But a calculated one.
