Ipod Nano – Mick: I never wanted one, now I can’t do without it.  I always leaned away from Ipods because I felt they were somewhat limited,  e.g no built in FM radio, no microphone.  After using the windows mp3 players I found they have some shortcomings as well, especially Windows Media player.  So I plunked down for an Ipod Nano (original version) and downloaded ITunes and I must admit they work in perfect sync, for music, audio books & podcasts.

Tip: I only download from Amazon becuse they have DRM  free (copy protection) music, and, slightly cheaper.  Their high quality downloads are slighty inferior to Apples AAC  music but I cannot tell the difference. Also if you cannot find the song by the artist you are looking for, do a search on the song title, there are many excellent covers (some better!) of most songs.
