Microsoft's Foray into Music

mp3 players rock, but I probably wouldn't get an ipod since I don't like to waste money on things like that. If all I need is something that works, that's exactly what I'd get.
(I had a 256Mb player up until a few weeks ago, it was the shit. (Whhhhhy did I leave it behind?))

The big problem is that all the other players suck. Total suxation. Cojones get licked.

But mp3s sound horrible ... don't they ? I always thought they did ... cuz they compress the shit out of em (even on highest quality/lowest compression they still sound like shit) ! Oggs are much better ... I also prefer flacs cuz they're lossless, unfortunately it's only about 33% compression ratio compared to wav (that's to say if a wav = 30 MB, it's flac = 20 MB roughly and mp3 = 3 MB, ogg = 10 MB).

196KB/s Mp3 sounds awsome, i don't know what your smoking

I've worked in audio recording since 1998 and can't hear the mythical "huge degredation in quality" in MP3s that everybody else can.
