I like it for its size, looks, solid build and sound, but I have a few complaints and would never buy another Apple product again, this being my very first and last

Sound is perfect (depending on what headphones you buy because this doesn't come w/

To be more specific: the sound is pretty good, loading music is easy, the controls on the device are easy to learn, the battery life is good, the control locking is very nice, and of course you have the cool factor

The sound is GREAT

If you want a music device,easy to use/carry,clips on,and nice sound,get the 2nd generation ipod

The ear buds don't stay in my ears that well, but the sound is fantastic, and the tiny player clips conveniently onto my sleeve for easy access to volume control and/or switching songs.

, if I'm indoors, I whip out the Bose headset that I purchased a couple of years ago and the sound is amazing.

I suppose that despite all of the above mentioned short comings, I will still give it a 4...as it does have good sound and is fun to use once you have filled it with random selections...but it is not for albums that you want to be able to listen to, uninterupted, from beginning to end.
