handbrake is a good tool (for macs & beta version for pc-google search) to covert dvd to ipod format & drag to itunes or your ipod directly.

i have a large Classic that lives out of site in the car.I also have an iPhone and touch that I use for calls/games and development (respectively)iTunes 8.x makes managing multiple iPods much easier than the old versions.

My Ipod, is a Nano, so not so new, but I use it every day and have recently downloaded new tunes from itunes. It works great!

Good point. I don't really see any huge differences between ipod and Zune except for the radio thing. I used to love to listening to the radio but when I bought my iPod I only listened to the morning shows because all the songs I wanted to listen to were on my iPod and I didn't have to get through commercials to listen to them. So I guess if you just absolutely need you a radio, get a zune. However, I'm not a fan of the Marketplace. The subscription service sucks. If you get rid of it all you songs go too. But if that's just what you're looking for then more power to you.

The Ipod Controls are some what lacking, the most frustrating part to me is that if you search by artist it does not asllow you to select individual albums within that artist, if you want to listen to a specific album you have to select it through the albums search folder. This would not be a major problem, but like someone already said, if you have 1000 artist and 2 or 3 even 5 albums per artist, that makes for a long list to go through.

Unless you actually used the video playback features on your old Nano, you should definitely get this Nano. I love it, the design is sleak and I love being able to clip it on, and the touchscreen rocks. However, I have to say my fav iPod is the Classic. If the limited space bugged you on your old Nano, get the Classic.

They charge my iPhone5 all the time, so I'd think the iPod would be fine. iPad still needs the big square connector ... at least for me (I have one of the original iPads).

I would save the $100 and buy the 30GB model. Spend the saved $$ on some decent headphones! I have about 2300 songs on my 30GB and have only used about 10GB so far. I also have several hundred photos loaded on it. The camera connector is awesome for traveling.

I just bought the Nano and it's way smaller than the Shuffle is. I used my nephew's IPOD and that's what made me want one, but i LOVE the Nano because of the size. Some of it wasn't intuitive for me, but my husband picked it up and had no problems with it. Once I saw how to do a couple basic things on it, I was set to go and didn't need any help at all. He thought that it would be good to have the screen and at first I didn't care, but now that I've used it, I can see why you want it. After using both, I'd have to go Creative Labs all the way.

The 30 GB iPod is physically slimmer--a nice feature. It has identical function as the 60 GB and it is cheaper. It comes down to deciding how much of your music you need with you at any time--30 GB is a lot (enough to listen 24 hours a day for about 3 weeks before repeating). If you prefer to have your entire collection with you always and can't live without that, then choose the 60. Otherwise the 30 GB makes more sense.

I bought a 4GB Nano 2 years ago because I only had 3GBs of music. Now I have 16GBs. Getting an iPod may give you the bug to listen to more music. With the ease of switching between songs and creating playlists, any mp3 player will drive you to experiment a little with your music taste. I also could not have cared less about the pictures or video (still don't) - but I got really into podcasts, and those take up space (if you like radio, check out podcasts - better quality, fewer interruptions). Bottom line - you will probably regret not spending the extra $50. The 80GB is a little more delicate than the nano (spinning hard drive vs. flash memory), but if you are just going to keep it at home it should not be an issue.

I've had my Zen Nano Plus for about a year now. It's been flawless. Use it working out, cutting grass, on vacation at the beach, etc. Lots of fun with no problems.So, I have to agree with all the other comments/posts here. I'm sure the Ipod is a great product too, but I think you get more bang for the buck with the Creative Zen Nano Plus. (And it's great that you don't have to load any software on your computer to use it. Just drag and drop.)

Get ANYTHING except a ipod and you'll have no problems syncing or transferring mp3s. I recommend getting a cheap $20 player, so when it breaks(and it will) you're not out a crapload of money. Also, you don't have the problem of itunes deleting your music like it has been known to do.

Because you are using it for movies, you must get the 8gb model, the 4gb will fill up too fast. The 4 gb model is ok for a moderate sized music collection, most of those 30 or more gb players are usually mostly empty for most people, but not for movies. Since a 3g shuffle was just introduced, I would strongly recommend waiting for an update for the nano, im betting a 16 gb model is coming, frankly I'm surprised the current nanos don't come in a 16gb model, I think they are just trying to sell more ipod touches, which i cannot recommend unless you have a huge pile of cash to get rid of.

in my opinion i would go with the ipod touch i love mine and its great the screen size is just right but if you dont plan on taking either devices out of the house go with the ipad mini
