Title: I am destoyer, i am mp3 player arch enemy - halp?
Post by: dcharlie on December 11, 2008, 10:20:49 PM
seriously, i am the Ipod/mp3 player kryptonite!

2 x old school ipods - sudden death
1 x 80G classic - battery and hdd issues to the point of unusable
1 x nano - sudden death
1 x Cowon - screen shagged, but could still play music. Then someone stole it at a gig. :/
1 x Panasonic SD for running - sudden death
1 x Sony led player thing - can no longer upload music to it, the songs on it are locked for life.

and this morning... what many will consider my greatest triumph

1 x shuffle - i pulled the USB cover off and the little flappy cable thing came out and cannot be put back together. once the charge goes , i'm without an MP3 player.

Mrs C is offering to get me a new one , i'm not touching Apple and i'm not touching HDD based.
Can anyone recommend something that i might not be able to destroy? :(


(ALL of these happen usually just on warranty expire day. :rock)

I got the Sansa Fuze 8GB for 70 bucks - so you wouldn't have to worry about losing too much.  You can put in up to a 16gb microsdhc card on top of the installed space.  The sound quality is also very good.  Also, you don't need software to add your mp3s - just drag and drop.

Wow.  That is bad...luck.

I still use my ipod from 10 years ago when they first came out.  It's sorta glitchy and busted but it works ^^;

the zune does appeal to my xf@g nature. Hmm - i'm sure getting one in Japan will be a pain, but i may go for one

(that was a really easy sell!)

gah, can only get the GoW Zune in Japan (wtf) ...

... and it's $666  :o

You should get it and wear it as bling

Even if you weren't going for it, I love the Stars reference.

ipods really are pieces of shit.  i want to get a new mp3 player.  are other mp3 players compatible with itunes, or can you download a program that will make them?
