 Why doesn't it have a "Top 25 most played" option? August 25, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
or a Recently Added option, (etc.) like some other mp3 players have? And why doesn't it let you see the details of how large the files are, and what type of song the current song playing is (like a Zen Vision: M has)? The time zone thing doesn't even give me a close enough (and accurate) city so I can get the right time! v_v
Yes, it's a nice mp3 player overall, but it was missing some of these things that my Zen Vision: M had and by now, I consider them essentials. It's rather new so I figured that you'd at least be able to go to another window to see some of what I complained about in the beginning.
Still, the cover flow feature is very nice (although it takes some time to fill in) and iTunes is a great way to use and put music onto your iPod, which is why I got an iPod in the first place to take place of the Zen that can no longer add anything else to it (it's "broken").
Just remember that you have to start your player over, by pressing the menu and middle circle button together for a few seconds to restart it while trying to connect it to put content on or charge it or it will freeze.
I'm also gonna say that there is also a problem with cover art showing black sometimes. I don't buy all of my music "fairly", so I use methods like coming to amazon for cover art as a detour. It works most of the time but for instance, there's a total black block in the space where Jesse McCartney's "Departure" album art should be. I have tried using amazon's artwork, google's and possibly yahoo's but none work! Lastly, I wanna say that I'm also highly disappointed that I can't watch music videos right from the get go. A white screen pops up when you pick a video, and says that you need another part. I have a hunch that that's the part that's around 50 bucks, just so you can watch videos. No thank you, Apple. Thanks for screwing me and millions of others!
All in all, if you just want a decent mp3 player, you can put trust in an iPod nano (3rd generation). Is it worth the big 150+ price tag? Not quite but it's close.
3.7 stars.
end note: And how come in the options there's a radio option to turn off and on but then you turn it on and in the menu it isn't there? This may be slicker and smaller, but if I was to be forced to choose, I'd say that the Zen Vision: M is better (by Creative). And as far as the smallness goes, that hurts more than helps because I'll put it somewhere and forget where it is! Honestly though, I do like the sleek thinness.

 IPod Eval... August 24, 2008
iPod was deleivered on time and is an outstanding product. It was a birthday present for my wife and she loves it!
Great IPod August 23, 2008
So superior to a Walkman - more control, choice, etc. I am well past middle age and enjoy it immensely!
Great!
