I preffer the convinience of a iPod... I don't have to search through 100's of disks just for one song. That alone is worth every penny on a trip

you cannot fit 700MB of music on a normal cd that will work on a normal cd player.
They're talking about MP3 radios.


Ipod is still better, they don't scratch or skip, they fit in your pocket and you can listen to 'em anywhere and you have 8K songs in your hand and a few videos too

and out of that 8k songs you listen to... not even 50
I'm actually listening to a 50 song playlist I have that I recently made. I listen to whatever my mood is at the moment, be it 80's, 90's or recent music. be it Rock, rap, hip hop or reaggaeton.

It also works great since I make party's at my house and we use the iPod as our mini DJ.

good point.. i only have ~2.5k songs... and i dont listen to ALL of them.. hell i don't even like all of them hahaha.
but there are times i listen to them... for example-
-going to the gym i listen to WAY different types than when i'm going to bed
-depending on my mood i might want rock or rap
-other people listen to my Ipod all the time and a lot of times they pick songs in the car, so they can browse and find what they want. They also don't have to look through 10000 cds.

along with the fact that you have to burn or even reburn cds as new music comes out.

I click sync and i'm done.

dont get me wrong, im not saying ipods are the gayest thing alive. But im just not impressed by what they are. yeah its a nice faster everyday pace, but wtf why waste the money when you can save it... but different strokes for different folks I guess.

I use a FM transmitter and get no feedback or static in my stang... It used to in my old car, but the whole antenna integrated in the rear windshield sucks.

FM transmitters don't really sound like cd quality because its over the radio :/
