Just a question, but have you owned one???

I have mine in a pocket while i am snowboarding and there is a peice of see through plastic in front of it and it still picks up what i want to do when i touch it. It has absolutely everything in it. I have owned many different players and this one is my favorite. As for itunes, i think its great. I for one am not down for downloading songs and half the time when you do they are different in volumes. imo i would rather pay the 99cents for a song or $7 for a cd off itunes.

Than again its all up to him and what he wants. I haven't regreted my touch in any way.

Yes I have, as well as several others and if you have looked around you will find the felxibility lacking in itunes compared to other software is astonishing, second there is no way way that selecting songs or volume is as easy on the touch as other players...the "touch" is a visual player most are not including the other ipods. it is so easy to touch the wrong buttom it makes it useless unless you are looking right at it. but as i said above...he should look at a few in store and compare. i think even you would find that there are quite a few players that if in someones pocket are far easier to navigate then a touch. I think people just like pulling them out and showing off...for a strictly music/video/fm it is a waste of money. (when you compare the video and the quality of the video with say the zen and take away all the features of the ipod that snaz was not looking for, the ipod would be a waste of money for him)

Incidentally i did say i bought a touch in one of my first posts....hmm..

I have always been a fan of scandisk, well made, easy to use, no propriatary software just drag and drop filles, and the most bang for your buck.
