    I don't think they are worth it, since there are phones out there now that do the same thing as an Ipod... just spend the money on a head unit for your car, Cost just the same and its a lot better. Get a Head unit with a monitor, thats what I'm getting soon, if not, if you have a compact disc (cass.) player in your car, just get a normal MP3 player or CD player and get the adapter... This is what I use right now until i get the head unit... If your looking for a good site to buy head units off goto www.sonicelectronix.com, they are the most discounted online store I have seen.

    I got a 16g Touch and I think it's pretty awesome. Mostly because you can just like have a never ending you tube source in your pocket. I thin it's worth it, but if you only have 1,000 to spare, I would aim towards something less flashy. I've heard good things from Zune, so i would suggest heading that direction.

    iPods are crap and a waste of money.
    Zune is your best option atm.

    ipods aren't worth the amount of money apple makes you pay, but then again, i don't think ANY Mp3 player should be worth over $100. I still bought two nanos though, so meh.

    Depends if you want one for the hype or not. People I know buy MP4 players just to be in with the "cool" kids, which in my opinion is a very sad way of living. Personally, I think if you'll actually use it a lot, and listen to music a lot, then go ahead. However, if you don't, then don't bother buying.

    yeah it depends on how much you will actually use it. id go with the ipod if i was to get one. i dont have one because id never use it. if at home i have the computer for music, my car i got a headunit, finished school so yeah. also if you dont have heaps of music then a cheap 4 gig or whatever would do

    Ipods are currently a fad, that may pass over anytime soon. Although their are many different MP3 and MP4 players that are just as good, they are less likely to get noticed. If you'r looking to save money, then i'd go for something thats less expensive, but has the same options as the IPOD does, for example a CREATIVE mp3 player.

    I have a zune, and it's much better then An Ipod, Ipods are really over rated and just cost that much because of the brand name, Apple Ipods will die out just like the Apple computer, Even though it's coming back.

    If you are low on money and have low morals, I suggest on stealing An ipod, the best place to jack one would be at a Train station/bus station/school/or a subway terminal. There could be other places too.

    Hope this helped ya.

    Please tell me your joking. Stealing an IPOD is the most stupid thing you could do. How would you feel if I just randomly snatched your 'ZUNE.' If your low on cash dont listen to this idiot, but buy a cheaper mp3 player.

    I would suggest getting a Zune. The Zune has a larger screen, it can play the radio, its music volume is actually louder than that of the ipod's, its a 80 GB for 50$ more than the 2 GB. A Zune is also more simpler to use for importing music. For iTunes, you have to convert your songs and import them. For a Zune, everytime you download a new song, just drag and drop your music file into the Zune program.

    Enough with your iPod bashing.

    I support Apple, you support Microsoft. Big deal.

    But honestly, MP3/MP4 players are massive wastes of money. MASSIVE wastes.
