what i don't like it how apple locks you to only be able to connect it to 1 computer and 1 library via itunes.

Apple iPod nano Fourth Gen. Silver 16 GB

$214.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bestbuy.com
genius will be massive, because it will - if it works as advertised - unlock the potential of your ipod library and help keep parties jumping or evenings chilled.
from www.crutchfield.com
why i was scared of being tied into itunes - it's definitely the easiest system to navigate and understand, and all the other music i had saved on my hard drive was easily copied to my itune library.
from www.crutchfield.com
the genius option, through my observations, is effective when you have a vast amount of licensed songs, otherwise it can't recognize your library well.
from www.amazon.com
if i buy a cd, i buy the digital download at amazon which then goes straight to my itunes library and it is sooooo much cheaper.
from www.amazon.com
i upgraded from a 2 gb nano to the 8 gb and it was really nice to be able to fit my whole library on my ipod.

beauty piece, great battery life, nice display, but- if the mp3 is off more than aprox 4 hr it takes about 20 sec to create library when turned on but will still resume where last stopped.

it has to assemble the library, as it says, and this could more than a minute, depending how much data you have on it.

filled up pretty quickly, but if you're looking for an inexpensive compact well designed unit to work out with or for commuting and don't mind editing you library more frequently , you can't go wrong
