Are you haveing a easy time with your mp3 /ipod?

Post by wdwfan » Dec Sat 30, 2006 10:16 pm

This christmas I got a mp3 player, I was sooo excited. Today i went to the Library to Download some music on my mp3 player from CD's because my computer will not let me do that. I downloaded 35 songs on the mp3 player, After i was done I tested the mp3 player to see it it downloaded the music, And much to my delight it worked, Soooooo did you have a easy time as i did with your new mp3 or ipod ?

I got an iPod nano a few months ago, and I'm still trying to get used to the dial thing. Also, I haven't had time to look at all the features and things on it.

I've had an iPod for a little while and it's been a breeze to use. And I'm still finding new features all the time (so even with time you don't get through all the features).

I have one of the (now quite) old 4GB iPod Minis that I have a selection of (pretty much all) Disney tracks on. Generally, I only listen to it whilst I'm walking around. When I was at Disney, I'd listen to it on the cast bus on the way to/from work, and occasionally on the monorail (although I'd always turn it off and put it in my bag when I was in a park). I thoguht of replacing it with a newer iPod, but since it still works I didn't see the point in doing so until it dies a death.

Just got the 8GB nano with Nike+ kit. It's very cool and so easy to use. I'm just a beginning runner, but it has definitely helped me so far.

By the way, Lion Sleeps Tonight, I LOVE the wheel on the nano. But, yes, it took a little while to get use to the functionality.

I only got the 4Gig one. A Disney fan cannot live on 4Gigs alone!

I still overshoot things on the wheel, but it's convenient when you want to change volume, song, or whatever. Gotta remember to lock the thing or else the volume might just jump up outta nowhere if I'm walking or running.

hehehe... guess what I got for my combined birthday/anniversary/Xmas present? An 80GB iPod. It is soooo awesome. Nothing like taking a break from work to listen to my Disney playlists (when not listening to SR), or scroll through my WDW vacation pics. Hope you can get your hands on one, knedeau.

This is my 3rd iPod; I started out with an early 5GB model, graduated to a 3rd gen. 20 GB and now the new one. I've always found it super easy to use, but I'd been using iTunes and iPhoto before I got an iPod, so adding the iPod was not such a big step.

I have had a generic MP3 player for about 1 1/2 years not. I don't use it too much, but it really small so it's very convenient to carry around. The real problem I have with mine is that the display is so small I need my reading glasses to read the functions!

My iPod is my favorite "gadget" that I own. Love it, never have had any problems with it and it's going on 2 years old. Just about time to replace it with a sexier model. 8)

I got an iPod for Xmas, just opened it. I've owned 3 other mp3 players and have found by far, the iPod is the most difficult to setup and load music to. All the others just plugged in and I could just drag and drop music on them. The iPod had a very unfriendly registration, setup, and playlist design. I have the hang of it now, but it's just bothered me, having to use iTunes, and all that jazz.

I just bought a 2nd generation ipod shuffle (1GB). So far it's been pretty easy. itunes is currently uploading the songs to it.

I bought some cheap ($7 at biglots) speakers for my 30 gig video a few weeks ago. Love them! I gotta say I really like iTunes 7 better than previous versions, it has become much easier to erase songs off the ipod.

Yeah I am on my 3rd iPod since 6th grade (in 9th now) and its been really easy to use! I love the new options on iTunes 7 with deciding what podcasts and what pictures and stuff you want. Super easy!
Disneyland is the best!
