| 733487 | 2008-12-30 02:54:00 | Hmmmm, well I know next to nothing about these things but I have been told by quite a few to go iPod. However, I’ve also been told that they won’t play standard MP3’s (of which I have about 1000 on computer) and all music has to be purchased off iTunes? Anyone care to straighten me out on the facts about these things? :thanks |

| 733488 | 2008-12-30 02:55:00 | Which program are you using at the moment to manage your music? iTunes will convert any MP3's (I think) for you. Not sure about WMA though Not all music needs to be bought from iTunes. You can rip CDs if you want too or drag music from My Music into iTunes. |

| 733492 | 2008-12-30 04:59:00 | The headphones you use make more of a difference than the player in my opinion, but I do find mp3 players don't sound good plugged into my home Amp with my big Mission speakers | gary67 (56) | ||
