    Apple iPod 30 GB 5th Generation (Black) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

    • Any song that doesn't have this information gets put in the song directory and if you happen to love music like me, it can be quite frustrating scrolling like to locate the song that you want to hear
    • And the headphones included with the iPod tend to falter when listening to loud music, producing a painful static sound
    • The iPod 5G is an excellent music player, though still missing some important features
    • This would be a great backup hard drive and a great music player
    • What can I say if you enjoy music, the sound is awesome!
    • Overall the iPod is a solid player that excells in the features it does offer (strong music and video playback), and doesn't waste your time on "gimickey" features that most people will never use
    • I am probably safe to assume that you currently have some kind of a portable music player (such as another mp3 player or even a cd player) that you use.
    • i would reccomend this for anybody who loves music but doesnt want to carry all their CD's around.
    • There are more cost-effective personal music players out there, some with better features, some better made
    • I loved music
    • *includes support for the important and widely used music formats *and most importantly a battery life 2X the iPod Video
    • the video's are nice and the music sounds great
    • However, I am impressed with SanDisk and would highly recommend it to anyone that is interested in an MP3 player that doesn't already have one and it's ability to use whatever music service you desire to download music from, which is great if you like live music instead of just studio stuff.
    • If you are the type of person who loves music and movies/TV shows this product is perfect because it allows you to take those things with you wherever you go
    • The iPod is a must for anyone who truly loves music
    • the colour screen really does bring the music to life its louder than the old ipods (because the screen is wider you can move the volume across more) i would say that this is good for long jorneys because you have visual entertainment as well and the slideshows are good where you can go thru your photos a useful item to have even if you do have an ipod
    • You can still benefit from the beautiful new display, for it will help you find your favorite music faster, and you can view the album art that accompanies your music.
    • Better YetTime for the world's best music player to take the stage for another encore
    • I am not a great music listener and the reason I got was for my wife, but beleive it or not I am using it more than her
    • Granted I have not used any other portable digital music player other than the ipod in order to do a comparison, but i don't know how I lived without the ipod before
    • To work around this glitch, I have to burn all my purchased music onto a CD, then transfer the songs from the CD BACK to my iPod, and then they'll play without any problems
    • ANything more serious than some entertaining music and apple couldn't hack it.
    • My $299.00 technological marvel, my portable music librarian, my expensively priced modern convenience's hard drive had failed
    • , i know the battery can sometimes be a little problem, but that's not a "BIG" issue either, so i'm very pleased with this purchase, and like i said before, if you really want to get a cool ipod this is the one, it doesn't matter if it's black or white or yellow, get one and enjoy your music!!
    • The Apple iPod is the best music player ever
    • After searching and searching for an application that can store my music well, easy to manage, and be usable with actual devices I couldn't be happier
    • However, one should not necessarily consider this player a video player, but a great iPod music player, with video capabilities as a fantastic bonus
    • if your computer crashed and you lost your whole iTunes music library.4
    • I reset it (lost all my music every time I did this), then a few months later I kept receiving a folder icon with exclamation point
    • Apple has been very consumer unfriendly by refusing to let iTunes protected AAC format music to interoperate with other software and other MP3 players
    • I highly recommend this item to anyone who loves music and is mightly careful with their electronics.
    • The iPod is a great music player, but it has its flaws
    • i don't really use it for the pictures or movies, but the fact is that it's really a great little gadget and if you're a music fan like
    • That being said, this iPod is a portable music player with 14 hours of battery life and simply offers the option of video playback
    • The Video is sharp and clear, colors are great, loading movies, TV shows, Photos, music and more is easy and fast
    • Even with those earbuds (which any real audiophile should replace anyway), the music sounds great
    • In regards to loading up your video ipod, I had no trouble loading all my music on the ipod
    • she loves her music when she walks.
    • Even with those earbuds (which any real audiophile should replace anyway), the music sounds great.
    • As a musician, teacher and traveller the ipod has met my needs for a high-quality portable music player.
    • The obvious great feature (in terms of music, at least) of the 30 GB iPod is the ease at which you can listen to any or all of your favorite music.
    • Its very thin and the music and video quality is excellent, battery life is good, however, if you use accesories, like an FM Transmitter (Iluv) or others it can drain pretty quick
    • The best music player ever they have good shows to put on it to the screen is so nice it is so
    • It is still the same great music player it always has been and the onslaught of the iPod appeal definitely lends to this fact
    • You can choose what you want the transitions to be and what bachround music you want!I definately recomend this, its just another great product that Apple has put out.
    • iTunes is a great music program
    • Came loaded with Gangsta crap and offensive music.
    • Although you can burn the music onto CD and then rip it again, that is a rather annoying and time-consuming barrier
    • Good product, only complaint was the music that was previously on the iPod was not erased
    • I love my iPod because I love music
    • I can now watch all the Japanese music videos I enjoy on the go and iTunes does offer free TV show clips from time-to-time (my favorite currently being "Guy Love" from the musical episode of the comedy "Scrubs").
    • I have spent nearly 3 years looking at the various Ipods which have come onto the market, each time with the hope of saveing up the money to finaly be able to buy a music player capable of holding my 8 days worth of continuous music.
    • but I suppose that's a small price to pay for this great music player
    • For example, if you are trying to go from the "Videos" to the "Songs" and then "Artists" sections, whenever you press the Menu button, it may take up to two seconds for the section you are trying to get to for the iPod to get to it (mostly when backing up from a menu).Over all, this is a pretty solid piece of equipment, and is a must-have for someone looking for a sturdy music player
    • The music sounds excellent and watching video on the Liquid Crystal Display is like watching my HDTV.~The compactness makes it easy to store all your music, and pictures, and videos and listen to/watch them in the car or while your in a place you really don't wanna be, but are forced to by greater powers (Mothers, wives, etc.)~The click wheel, although it takes a couple minutes to get used to, is fascinating.
    • It is still the best music player out there, hands down
    • Even if you do not plan to view video on the new iPod, its primary purpose is to be used as the world's best music player
    • It's fabulous, especially if you're a music junkie like me who loves all her music in one tiny, sexy little device!
    • Thin and light, with plenty of battery life for a normal day's worth of listening, this thing is light years ahead of my beloved old music player
    • I'm not in anyways "Mp3 Savy", i just would like to give a basic review/sum up to us common music lovers, not a gadget fanatic knowing all these fancey terms
    • I now buy an iPod Video in January and it is the best music player
    • don't get me wrong, the iPod is a fantastic music player
    • Keep in mind that this is my opinion and you know as well as I if you were thinking about getting one of these (or not
    • First the positives--I have the 30GB version and have found the transfer time from windows to be insignficant, sound quality is terrific and the slim design a nice plus
    • you know as well as I thats a stupid reason not to get one of these
    • I first received an i-pod that didn't work properly, but the vendor quickly replaced it for
    • Trust me on this one i hav a black i pod and its awesome
    • /c my computer gave it a virus.)
