An iPod is a financial black hole, designed to combat the problem of money becoming concentrated around individual people. Them iPod works via the capitalist interaction, which can be thought of as one of the five fundamental interactions (along with the gravity, strong, electromagnetic and weak interactions). The iPod absorbs money from entities possessing large amounts of it, and slowly emits the energy contained in the money as molecular vibrations. During this process, the energy contained in the battery power of the iPod is also emitted as molecular vibrations, and when this reaches zero, the functionality of the iPod disappears.
The field strength per dollar of an iPod is given by the following equation:
Field strength per dollar = - iPod capacity / (4 * pi * permittivity of free space * (distance between iPod and money)^2)
where iPod capacity is measured in gibibytes, and distance in metres.

Little Johnny has $40. His wallet is 1 metre away from an iPod. The iPod has a capacity of 40 GiB. Using the formula, Little Johnny's money is subjected to a force of magnitude approximately 10^13 Newtons by the iPod. No wonder he wouldn't shut up asking for one.

An Apple-made device that can play downloaded music. iPods cost around $250 in stores, but are remarkably easy to win online.

The worst piece of technology that is around today. I have used my cousin's iPod, just to look around, and I can say, personally, it really have some flaws. Here they are:
1. The scroll pad goes too fast. If you want to select a song, be prepared to wait for 5 minutes to attempt to select it, since it goes too fast.
2. The fact that there is so many. There is the 1 gig, 2 gig, 4 gig, 8 gig, 30 gig, and an 80 gig. Now, say before the 30 gig came out, you bought the 8 gig. Now you are stuck with that until you can fork up $250 just to buy it. Also, the 2 gigs are $150. I have an Icetech Keo, that has the same space,, and cost me only $100, and works just as well.
3. The iPod shuffle is really not innovative. It just makes going through music harder. You have no clue what song you are currently on, and the fact that it is smaller means it is harder to find when it is lost.
4. The 30 gig and the 80 gig are really clunky and bulky. If you attempt to fit it in your pocket, it will probably barely fit. Also, who needs 20,000 songs on an 80 gig? Or who has that many, as a matter of fact?
5. Apple makes it sound like it is the only mp3 player out there. But instead, they fail at that. My Icetech Keo can play music as well as play videos, view pictures, play games, listen to the radio, have a phone book, record and play back sounds, and view documents. What can an iPod do? Play music, play videos (which you have to dish out $250 for), and play pointless games, like what is this song, like you don't know any of the songs you put on it.
As you can see, I despise it, because Apple acts like it is the only one out there, but is really shitty.

Yea, I didn't buy an iPod. I bought an IceTech Keo at http://www.icetechusa.com/, and it works as fine, if not better than an iPod.

An overhyped and overpriced piece of shit music player made by Apple. Costs $250 for one that actually works good. iPods will eventually be made to store every piece of content on the iTunes Store. They often tend to break easy, resulting in immediate loss of coolness when you drop it.

An MP3 player that was created by Apple computer company in which to hold up to 10,000 songs and possibley more in some time or future the reason 10,000 is simply because peoples song taste's change over time and so they created a device with that much space so that way you the consumer would not have to delete any songs off of it, personally I have 1,000 or so songs so...only 9,000 more to go till I hit the limit and have to delet some songs, my taste's tend to stay the same now =
**Friend** "Hey **another friend** you got a new iPod I hear...what do you have on it man?
**Another friend** "Oh you know the classics like the Ramones, Motley Crue, GNR, Black Sabbath, some Ozzy Osbourne and I even got myself some rap on there too"
**Friend** like who?
**Another friend** Oh I got Jay-Z, some of that Lil Jon' and a few other artists
**Friend** Cool

Plays mp4/AAC (better than shitty vorbis which no one in their right mind would put music in. no one fuckin' uses it and they never will). The menus can be re-arranged to fit your needs (i.e. switching to random quickly. Lightweight but with a large capacity hard drive. Given it doesn't have radio (which they should have added a long time ago), it has everything you need (by the way, what the fuck could an ethernet card do for an iPod anyway? Let you surf the internet? How about you list things that it truely is lacking than making shit up?)
