Hello, 2005

I'm slightly more intrigued by this idea of carrying around my entire music collection with me in some form of "MP3 Player", as the kids call it. However, I'm not suggesting an iPod, since iTunes is a terrible program and doesn't work as well with PCs. I'm actually considering a Microsoft Zune 80, which is by many accounts better than the iPod and costs the same. Although, my CD collection is relatively small and probably wouldn't make a dent in 80GB.

Well, you know my thoughts. I love iPods. Play with mine some more when you're out here. I'll show you how it interfaces with iTunes..and it's pretty nice. What didn't you like about the Windows iTunes? I haven't used it much on a PC, just on my PowerBook, so I really don't know what differences are there...but I love iTunes on my Mac.

I think, ultimately, you're going to want more than something that only holds a few GBs of MP3s, but that's just my opinion. If you think you don't have enough to fill 80GB, you'll just have to buy more CDs. ;)

Well, of course it's nice, on a Mac. The Windows version was buggy, a resource hog, and I think the thing is just plain ugly. For a company that is so much about interface and flash, they certainly haven't done much with iTunes. Plus there's that whole monopoly thing.

*ROFL*

I was going to post a simple reply of "resistance is futile" from the direct reply link in the e-mail. Then I saw the icon you chose for yours.

*rofl* Yeah, that was much easier to watch than the whole damn keynote. Wish I'd seen this first. :P
