That is the problem with a phone. I generally change the music I carry on my phone. Whatever I'm listening to at the moment .... My ipod has all my music and I take that for long trips, but if I'm just going out, it's my phone.

Jerome Wrote:Curious as to how many members here own an Ipod and how often do you actually use it. Or maybe you use it all the time. I was given one by the company I work for (as was everyone else in the company) as a kind of thank you for the overall production output. A great gesture from the company in question but I have to say the quality of the sound is just plain crap. And those earplugs are a waste of time as the stereo picture keeps moving around creating an unbalanced sound. (because one size does not really fit all.)

What type of iPod did the company give you? Are you sure that the sound quality is bad because of the iPod and not the music files?

An Ipod 'Nano'. I have tried various versions of these things and the old 'walkman's' as well. The quality on all these devices is crap. In order for a listener to get a real sense of immersion in sound, the speakers need to be able to move a certain volume of air (that's what speakers do). These devices cannot do that. The upper end of the audio spectrum is tinny and harsh and the bottom end is boosted to make you think it has 'body' to it but it does not.

My iPod is my favorite thing. I have an 80gb classic. Recently, I thought I lost it, and well I cried. Really. But I found it. I am always using it, unless I am in my house. The minute I grab my keys to go out, my headphones are in.

My "iPod" is actually an old iPhone 5 with a cracked screen and most of the apps and other content deleted. I also have all of my favorite songs and songs I like a lot on my iPhone and also have an iPad with music on it as well.

I use my iPod iPhone almost every day. It goes from home stereo to car on my commute, to listening in the office, back to the car and back home every weekday.

Since my iPod is old I use Spotify on my iPhone when I want to listen to newer music and try newer albums. My Spotify account is on hold now but I'll be activating it again soon.
