Apple iPod classic 160 GB Black NEWEST MODEL
November 10, 2009 at 6:44 pm
After the hassle I have had with converting my mp-3’s and syncing this POS, I am sorry I bought it.
This was my third MP-3 and definitely the biggest hassle of all.
I figure I might have my MP-3 files complete conversions to APP format by next week.
The sync is not intuitive and the instructions are terrible unless you call the
infomercials for i-tunes provided helpful.
They are not.
This will be my last Apple product, they are way too Apple-centric.

The new iPod classic is a huge disappointment with only one positive note. When Apple had their live music event last week, Apple should have trimmed the scroll wheel to the size of the nano’s wheel, increased the screen size, or increase memory capacity beyond 160GB. Instead they failed to do everything that would improve the iPod classic. Yes, we now have a 160GB model as oppose to the 120GB model. However, the 160GB model was already released two years ago despite the fact that it was a bit on the bulkier side. On top of that, the black model still has that cheap AWFUL looking plastic casing on the top that seems to have been manufactured at a dollar store. The iPod is a decent MP3 player and its ease of use is great. But its flaw comes in the fact that its failed to EVOLVE properly. The Zune atleast has a huge 3.2 inch screen while the iPod size has remained the same. Another sad note is that Apple of course has gone ahead and poured all their creative ideas into the iPod Nano by giving them those great fashion colors and now they even have the luxury of a built in camcorder that records video in High Def from what i hear. The videos can also easily upload to Facebook or YouTube. Plus, the Nano now has a FM Radio.
If Apple couldn’t provide the Classic model with Fashion colors they could have at least given this so-called new model a built in camera/camcorder or the FM Radio. Apple, does this make any sense?
Pros: Big memory for music lovers with an extensive music library
Battery Life
Cons: No evolution whatsoever
Small Screen Size that has not changed in over 6 years
No camcorder/camera
Cheap Plastic Cover
No Fashion Colors
No radio
No wi-fi
No FM Radio
No customizable backgrounds
Metal back still gets scratched easily
Cheap ear phones etc

While the ipod classic is easy to use, the quality isn’t up to snuff. After only 4 months of use, it started skipping out of tracks in the middle of a track to another track. I checked online and this problem is not unheard of. Unfortunately, none of the recommendations to fix this problem worked for me. Repairing the ipod costs as much as getting a new one, so I’m out over $200. My husband has had a Microsoft Zune for 3 years now and has had no problems.

Has this a couple of days and am very satisfied. The only problem I have with it is that it uses the same version software that the previous generation did. Apple failed to add Genius playlists to it like it did for the new Nano.
