MP3 players

Sounds like a plan

I've put a note in my diary to carry it out before I take a holiday, so as to minimise the inconvenience.

How to put music on the ipod.

1. Install itunes
2. Insert CD
3. Plug in ipod

my gran could do it.

Your gran's into Ogg Vorbis and won't touch anything where she can't hack the firmware.

Ah, here are my files, in the folder where I put them.

I have no truck with intangibles, I want physical files I can move around.

I agree - drag'n'drop all the way !

I knew nothing of "tags" until I started filling up my new player with random stuff acquired online - the stuff ended up all over the place in the menus.

I'm tempted to seek a utility that strips off all the tags.

I'm quite capable of making folders myself.

My creative player doesn't index stuff on external SD cards anyway.

Tags are kinda the whole point of using the computer for music if you ask me

No, Crispy. The whole point of using the computer for music is listening to music.

Fucking geeks

I've just broke my iAudio by dropping it. I'd recommend that to anyone who wants a non-iPod - but my next purchase will be the highest spec iPod - there just so much easier to use than anything else. Will have to buy a home laptop as well of course, but I need one anyway

I think a good question to Nikkormat would be how much do you want to spend?

I like the little jobs that take SD cards and often cost less then a tenner. Doesn't matter if you break them and they take aa bateries, so you don't need your pc to charge it.

Of course its not as nice to use as an ipod, but they still have a screen to select tracks with.

Just wish they would update them to take 4gb cards, but you cant have everything
