Yeah, I'd say get the 30 gig. If you're already spending close to 400$ on a 15 why not just double the size for 100$?

And if you're not going to want to drop the bones on an mp3 player don't CD players that play mp3 encoded cds kind of make minidisc obsolete?

i have about 8gigs of songs on mine. But, my friend and his bothers have over 500 CD's each. So his 30gig iPod has like 300 full CD's coppied onto his ipod. roughly 3000 songs.

i go over there and copy some of thier cd's whenever i feel like having some new music. hehe

And a CD player that can play mp3's fits about 150 songs on 1 CD.
But get a portable DVD player that plays mp3's and fit like what? over 500 songs one on DVD. not sure how many.

Tee hee, that's cool, have they thought about opening up a small business and renting out their CD's.

ya definatley im getting an Ipod but im getting the 10 gig model .. since i dont know where to get it cheap cuz canadacomputers doesnt have it il prolly go to best buy and get the 10 gig one. I dunno how much it is canadian tho.. i figure it would be like 399.99 .. thats queit a bit of money to spend but i know id enjoy it after...

Can anyone recommend a canadian store in toronto that would sells stuff for pretty cheap?

once you get rolling on getting songs. be it however you are getting them :P they tend to fill up quickly.

as aposed to a 128mb mp3 player you'd fit like 20 or so songs on it.

Trust me, whatever iPod you get, you'll be happy as hell with it. Plus the sound quality on the iPod is Superb.

dunno of any canadian stores tho. sorry.
