MP3 really isn’t that great a format nowadays (it used to be, but now Ogg Vorbis and AAC and formats like that are better) - it’s all in the ubiquity (yes I know I spelt that wrong ;)) FYI, I use flac for all my music (i’m a quality freak) ---

I’ve been listening to Foo Fighters too, but nothing beats the chilis :beam: ooohh radio, no way, they just play j-lo, eminem and other crappy stuff on radio. uh uh, no radio for me thanks, me don’t like mainstream music. ---

i hated the screen i’m tired of the old-style green-light screen! the look doesn’t beat the iPod (in my opinion)! but if had the choice i’ll buy the sony anyways, why it’s small, has a good compression tool, good navigation tool(i can already feel it, again it doesn’t beat the iPod!), and its a cheaper plus its a sony. thats my opinion 🙂 [edit] it’s 400$, nevermind i’ll buy the iPod [/edit] ---

by the time you buy it thought it could be as low as 200$, because it’s the same hard-drive as their computers and the manufacturer is going to give them discounts for quantity probably ---

> [@bombingpixels](#): > > wow! you’re telling me you’ve seriously only listened to two bands for two years. Nothing else? yeah, okay, I’ll admit. sometimes (maybe once or twice / month) I listen to George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic. That’s it 😛 I’d say I listen to 95% Red Hot Chili Peppers 3.5% Foo Fighters 1% George Clionton & Parliament Funkadelic 0.5% Mainstream (it’s impossible to miss - it everywhere AAAAHHH! :P) ---

> [@bombingpixels](#): > > by the time you buy it thought it could be as low as 200$, because it’s the same hard-drive as their computers and the manufacturer is going to give them discounts for quantity probably I’m guessing the drives used in their desktops are bigger (physically). A 250GB drive is bigger than a 20 GB drive. ---

I mean they use 20 gig hard drives or something in their computers and have multiple or something, but that’s just a guess… maybe you’re right ---

> [@bombingpixels](#): > > I mean they use 20 gig hard drives or something in their computers and have multiple or something, but that’s just a guess… maybe you’re right I see what you’re saying. For a 250GB hard drive you’d have to have at least 12 of them, so I’d say they use something a little bigger than that. :cap: ---

Or we could go further. The LaCie “Bigger Disk” is 1TB. 100 20GB hd’s? I hope not, the thing’s pretty small. [Previous page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/ipod-unseated/56900.md?page=3)
