It took me along time to finally take the plunge into digital music players, and to be honest the ipod won the day really due to their huge popularity.
I've never regretted it. I've had my trusty 80gb for about 2 years now, and it's superb.
You really can't argue with the ipod+itunes setup, its quick, easy and works very well.
The ipod itself sounds excellent, the scroll menu is easy, navigating tracks is a breeze.
One thing I will say is that at full volume the ipod is almost deafening, I suggest setting the volume limit to a sensible level to protect your ears.
I can honestly think of no reason not to recommend the ipod, perhaps the only thing against it is the back scratches very easily, but that's easily solved by investing in a decent quality protective case.
Well done Apple, job done.

Absolute quality. Initially I was worried about spending £170 on this but 3 months down the line all my fears have been put to rest.
In reality its pretty impossibly to fill an 80GB ipod (i'd like to meet someone who has) but you're paying an extra £60ish for an extra 75GB of memory over the average nano.
I would only recommend this to people who see music as a hobby and have a vast music library to fill this baby up.
There's a minor drawback with the video player because you have to do some converting crap but it's just a teeny tiny chink in the armoury of what is a fantastic multimedia device.
Screen size is good, click wheel is predictable amazing, battery life could be longer, aesthetically pleasing, invest in some quality headphones and you are there!
Long live ipod

How much is an ipod really worth?
ipods are one of the least environmentally friendly gadgets available. According to Apple they are only meant to last 12 months and they are designed to prevent customers replacing the toxic batteries when they wear out. So the 10 million ipods sold are all destined to sit in a landfills for the next million years leaking toxic chemicals.
Environmentalists have been criticising Apple since the ipod's original release.
How have Apple responded?
By using less packaging and boasting that they are green. What are they on?
The following is taken from Thegreenguide.com:
"But while Apple declares that they are `committed to reducing the environmental impact of the work [they] do and the products [they] create' the iPod is not designed to have its toxin-laden battery replaced or removed. Apple can live up to their environmental commitment by making all iPod's green.
How to Make a Green Apple
* Produce toxin-free iPods
* Design iPods so batteries can be easily and affordably replaced
* Provide take back and recycling options for iPods and other electronics"
Visit thegreenguid.com to sign a petition asking Apple to make greener ipods.
Just don't buy one.
I had an ipod. It lasted 2 years. It wasn't worth costing the earth.

I have had many other Apple products like iPod Nano's, iPod Shuffle and even the iPod Video. This 80GB Nano looks exactly the same as the iPod Video but this slightly thicker in width.
It can do all the usual stuff like play music, videos etc. And play plenty of it too! 20,000 songs or 20 hours of video! WOW!!!
I am a Graphic Designer so I use Apple Macs for my work, and I often need to download files from one computer to another. Not many people mention this but the iPod Nano is also a hard drive where you can drag and drop files so instead of buying an external hard drive why not use the iPod.
The 80GB is massive! When you consider that an average MacBook Laptop is around 60GB!
Although the iPod states 80GB of memory it never is - 75GB would be a better estimate, this is due to preloaded software on the iPod.
Wouldn't it be great if iPods had built-in cameras and had bluetooth capabilities where people could share data??? If someone from Apple is reading this then perhapes you would like to mention this to Steve.
