How much time do you spend listening to your MP3 player.

I don't have one me'self but the boys all have iPod Nanos and they think they are the wasp's nipples.

Stoped using these things after I realised my hearing was going down the drain. :(

I don't have one either because they take the links away in the lounge when people make free iPod posts :dry:

When I got mine, I was still working afternoons and weekends, and I probably used it 30+ hrs a week.

Since I'm working days, the occasions are fewer and further between; when I do use it, it's plugged into my car system or at my workbench in the basement.

I wouldn't be without it, though-3500 tunes, when- and wherever I want them?

You damn betcha-I've got it in a small camera case with every patchcord known to man, AC and DC adaptors, two set of buds and the remote.

It's vital, ya'know? :)

Over thirty hours a week. I listen to it every day at work, and since I work nights, it's the entire shift. ;)

I've just recharged and added some yeehaw music to mine.

It's great for when I'm walking teh moog, but I can't stand the Itunes programme you have to use with it.

You don't need it anymore. Winamp does it better. (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/showthread.php?t=113877&highlight=Itunes)

Can you not just treat it like an external drive, or doesn't it work like that.

You can sync it with WMP, but file control kinda sucks-I use deubox
for that; it makes tagging and file management a breeze.

I haven't used the IPod software, but I imagine it's similar.

Just DL or rip the files, run them through MP3gain, and shift them to the player right onto the appropriate playlist.

Home to School 30 min X 2=1hr X 5=5 hrs

another 1 hr or so at home everyday so thats around 12 hrs a week.

My kids all have one that they listen to constantly, but I don't.

My car stereo plays mp3s, so if that counts I listen about 20mins/day.
Hmm, 2hrs a week max... not a lot at all, really.

Complicated?

Surely not to JP, for whom I formulated my post.

I wouldn't wonder that you are confused...

Why even use a media player prog?

Mp3 players can be used loike that,Ipods try to make it awkward,but as has been posted there are ways round it,

I don't have one.

In the car I have a CD player, at home or in work I use the computer to listen to music and if I'm on a long journey (public transport), I prefer to read.

Mr. Mulder

ipods are the gay.

loobi got one of those video ones t'other day and it cawked her computer up real nice. took some doing to undo the gheyness it caused.

dunno if its just her mobo but it won't post if you start up the computer with the ipod connected. it also cawked up some root certificate, codecs and zone alarm. its sorted now like, after upgrading itunes, the ipod bios and the mobo needed a bios flash also, not to a newer version, just to clean up the mess it caused :dabs:

also itunes is ghey and buggy, and its so called conversion software doesn't do anything making you use a third party encoder :dabs:

also they're for students and students are cnuts.

Lobbed my Ipod into a brickwall today. :happy:

They are very durable and sturdy in such situation, and it's determination to stay turned on amazed me so much I felt the need to throw it harder.

I think I'll test it's swimming powers in a mug of cha if it doesn't do as it's fecking told again.

I had a mobile like that once. The wall eventually won.

I haven't listened to my mp3 player for about a year but I might start using it again now I have to catch the train to work. :music:

Got one of these MobiBlu cube things. I got it to start listening to these audiobooks and TTC lectures that I got and its amazing - just walking around listening to them. Seeing the perspective of your world around you change as more knowledge gets sucked into your head. Fantastic.
