Source : Great product justwish it tells me how to download dvd to ipod

Great product. I just wish that it tells you how to download dvd to I Pod. Need help with this. Thanks. AshaSource : iPOD 160GB

All I can say is that the delivery was quick and I was happy to get the iPod. I have been in the process of loading EVERY CD I own over the past 4 weeks & am still not done. I have no complaints w/ Amazon so far. They are ontime, safe, convenient and quick.Source : Impressive...

I must say that truthfully I didn't order my iPod from Amazon.com simply because Apple offered free engraving and I figured that would be a delight to have something so perfectly made just for me. Anyhow, Apple's ingenuity and creative design has truly impressed me. I love how easy iTunes is to use and how fast it syncs my music, TV episodes and movies and podcasts and I could go on. The picture and video quality is the best I have ever seen in a gadget of this size. The amount of memory is the same as my laptop and that alone is amazing to me. It quickly charges when its running low on juice and tags along with me wherever I go. This iPod is like my best buddy and along with my lipgloss and cell phones, I will never leave home without it! :)Source : I have an excellant impression!

I have just recently got my I-pod. Sounds great. Works great. I loaded all my music collection. I have nothing but great things to say about the "Cover Flow". It is super fast on mine. This is the way I like to preview my music. I don't have any question marks but do have a few album covers with notes on them because I-tunes couldn't find the cover art. No biggie (It's cause they don't recognize stolen music from Kazaa! lol Just kidding?) Anyways, so far so good. It holds a massive amount of stuff! Headphones are average. Not great but they work fine. As far as sound quality...I am a music fanatic and I don't care what people say, NO ones ears are that sensitive as far as nuances go. Perhaps sound quality is just subjective...meaning to each his/her own opinion? I personally feel this product does an awesome job as an all around media system. Works fine on the TV (Even though you have to shell out additional money for proprietary cables...wha wha wha you penniless whiners! If you can afford the I-pod, buy the stuff that goes with it and quit complaining that it doesn't come with the player. Those days are loooong gone! lol) I got a couple games, videos, books etc. loaded up so it keeps me pretty busy. I reccomend this I-pod for anyone wanting a quality music/media player that has huge memory. By the way what's with everyone slamming the click wheel? Mine works perfect out of the box. I love it! So far I have had no problems that anyone else has had. Of course I know how to make sure all the latest software is loaded in my computer and I read intructions very well too! I got the "Apple" protection plan too...just in case.Source : AWESOME!!!!

My old 2nd generation Nano broke and I took a chance and bought this product. I absolutely love it! 5 stars all the way. I bought this item when it was on sale $214 but it is so nice I would've bought it even at the current price of $250.
