The other mp3 players of similar capacity, like the iRivers, are around the same price as the iPod.  I think what makes the players so expensive is the small hard drive the player requires, which is kind of expensive.  The small electronics I think are also a little bit expensive to produce.  I heard that Apple makes approximately 40% profit off of each iPod so the production cost for each iPod is approximately 60% of the price they sell it for.

Wouldnt i depend of where you buying it from because if you brought it directly from apple it would be different to if you brought it from a 3rd party dealer.

I would much rather a creative mp3 player anyways

I wouldn't personally spend that much for an iPod, but I'm just a college kid with no money. Maybe if I had a steady career and had a little spare cash. Personally an MP3 player with a few discs or a few cdrw's with some music on them would benefit me about the same. Although this music piracy is still a big issue, and that's how most people go that route when they download illegally, but can't you put iTunes on there and play them back as well? Maybe they have a different format. I have no idea, but surely it would play it since it also plays the .wma's and such.

Anyone ever tried getting a free iPod from that site?

I seen it on "The Screensavers", and the guy actually said it worked. (that show has gone downhill) No idea though. Just have to get a bunch of people to complete offers and such. If anyone wants to try it, sign up under me by clicking here.

jss11, you sound just like my patriotic cousin who is a Singaporean/Creative fan and but since I live on my budget system which is already likely to suggest that I have no money already tells you that I buy whatever that is worthy of my savings. I managed to get my hands on a Creative MuVo TX FM 512MB thanks to another donation from my best friend who has the resources to donate her stuff to me

I'd get an iPod if it were shock absorbive. If not, I'd drop it the first day and see 50 and 20 dollar bills flying out of it and burning up before I could catch them! I've had 3 mp3 players, each one progressively cheaper, because I always drop it on the first week, even on carpet, and it never works again . I can imagine the mini-hard drive disk shooting out at 10,000 rpm into a wall, and it would be very painful to watch, as my mouth drops to the floor froom the excitement of just blowing $400 in such a fashion, and the agony of just having blown $400 in such a fashion

*cough* iPod mini *cough* Not colour *cough*

Anyways,

Although the ipod mini is cheaper and smaller however it can not hold as much as the plain iPod. If you have the money get the Plain iPod and get a skin for it

Can anyone tell me if what I hear about Ipods is true?

For example you cant replace the batteries so if your ipod battery dies you need a new one?

I personally have a Creative Zen, its super old, and its dead as hell but I love it and despise Ipods with a passion!

Ipods are far too flashy for me, I like having an MP3 player that looks like a brick haha

Although I was thinking about getting a Zen Touch or something like that, anyone got one? Or could recommend a good creative mp3 player? One which didnt cost the world either as im only a poor poor student hehe
