The 7th Gen iPod Classic I was tracking today/tonight ended up
selling for $260 which is about what the 6th Gen's are going for
based on recent sales. I wonder if the 6th Gen is "better" than
the 7th as far as functionality. Maybe it has a preferred design
that most people liked that was f*cked up in the 7th. You tell
me.

I can't think of anything particularly different between 6 and
7th gen, and dude, 260 is a freaking FANTASTIC price for one of
those now. Although what's the hard drive space? (I'm obsessive
over that, I have a 160gb and I'm using about 130 of it, which
is why I'm going so nuts about these things: I want to be able
to keep my collection intact as it grows).

It was 160 gb, which is what I'm only watching. I want to get
the biggest hard drive that is going to accommodate all my sh*t
that I intend to put on it. So, question, I believe I ask this a
while back, but I can't remember if you gave me an answer. Can I
take all the CDs that I've ripped and put onto my computer and
do the same onto any portable device? They are all MP3's. Just
transfer them from PC to iPod?

Okay, then that's an INSANELY good price, better deal than I
got.
Yeah, you need iTunes or a program like that (there are some
people who don't like iTunes so they use an alternative, but I
don't know what it is) but yeah, you can drag MP3s right in
there into a playlist and they'll transfer to the iPod.
For all that stuff, you wanna make some playlists so you know
where your stuff is. My iPod is super organized, I can find
anything at a moment's notice. But that's just me.

Anyone here have any experience with CD Carousel's now or in the
past? If yes, please tell me any pros or cons they may have. Any
issues with mechanical failure? Most have 5-6 Slots, but I'm
looking at the 50, 100, 400 and 500 just to get a taste of
what's out there. The 500's are pricey as f*ck at $1k and will
not be coming home with me any time soon. Most likely would
shoot for 50-100 range.

500 CDs at once? Geezus!
Never had a CD carousel, but my dad has a 5-disc DVD player and
it's annoying as anything to get the discs in and out because
the carousel never spins around to the right place (AND kept
moving slowly when it was open, so you gotta grab the disc quick
when it appears).

Sooooooooooooooo, I'm looking into an MP3 player for my walking
routine. All I want it to do is play songs or podcasts. So Apple
has Shuffle ($49), Nano ($142) and Touch ($189). These 6th and
7th generation iPod's seem incredibly expensive. What do they do
for that price. Not sure I need a Nano... except maybe for
bluetooth?
Need to find something decent to listen to them. Thinking about
something like the Sennheiser PMX685i Sport II.

Can't you put your songs on your Smartphone that you have?

Oh good lord... No. This thing weighs a ton and just bulky. I
don't carry it around in regular clothes.
I guess I needed to mention, it has to be practically non
existent light. Light shorts and T shirt for summer. Thinking
I'll strap it to my arm or waist. I'm gonna pay for the
convenience of ease, light and quality.
