Did I turn a deaf ear to the iPod's sound quality?
« on: December 07, 2007, 06:47:28 AM »
I have a 3G iPod that I still occasionally use.  I thought about lugging it with my on my flight tomorrow, even though I loaded my Helio Ocean with 2GB of memory, just to have my entire library at my fingertips.  But I tell you, I really didn't pay much attention to the complaints about the sound quality of the iPod when they first start making waves... until now.  Maybe it's dying or something, but the sound quality from my Ocean is so superior that I've begun transferring a good amount of music to that device for my trip tomorrow.  Am I going crazy, is my iPod dying or was I just naive to its mediocre sound quality.

Yeah, I've never had another type of MP3 player but I can tell when I'm in my car that the sound quality is fairly shitty. But that could also be attributed to the some of the low bitrates I have on various MP3s.

I'll do it for you. Fuck you gamestop, fuck you in the ass. Yer policy of selling used games as new really gripes my case.

2 gigs is your entire library?  I'd say you're too green to even begin to make judgements on fidelity.

Robby, I have written a movie starring you and demi.  Would you be interested in playing yourself?  It is titled "The Father Robby and Thomas FabIo Mysteries."

Yes but only if I can carry a Helio Ocean with 2GB of memory, just to have my entire library at my fingertips.
