I finally joined the rest of the civilized world this week and purchased an iPod to take with me on my runs.
I'm loving it! And I'm having a blast finding songs in iTunes.
It got me wondering what all of the CC peeps have on their iPods/mp3 players. So?
-
Agree with BC, I have lots o' stuff too. Mostly classic rock and oldies. Mixed with some Vivaldi, Rufus Wainwright and some Old 97s. haha ;)

I love my Blue Oyster Cult greatest hits cd, and James Taylor's greatest hits volume 1. Genesis' "Turn it on Again" is high on my list :) Coldplay's Viva La Vida is excellent. Best of the Doors, Johnny Cash's American Man cd series, Walking into Clarksdale by Page & Plant. The list is endless.... :) I hope you enjoy your new 'pod!!
-
You'll never catch me owning anything with the (Cr)Apple logo on it. That includes an I-pod.
That being said, I have a 2GB micro-SD serving as primary RAM in my phone. About 1.3GB of that is music I've uploaded from my PC.

I bought that one! I love it.
I'm trying to think of some of the tunes I've downloaded so far. I was looking for things with good beats to keep me moving.
Human--The Killers
Hot N Cold--Katy Perry
Paralyzer--Finger Eleven
Gotta Be Somebody--Nickelback
Dead Man (Carry Me)--Jars of Clay
How Far We've Come--Matchbox Twenty

I wish I had more upbeat song suggestions for ya! I'm not that much into the pop music scene. Except for Justin Timberlake that is :-) hehe That's kinda my guilty pleasure.
-

Everything from Garth Brooks, to Jim Croce, to Righteous Brothers, to Andrew Lloyd Weber, to Def Leppard.
You won't find any (c)rap in my music library, unless it was EARLY DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince, or Sir Mixalot (I grew up not far from the parts of Everett WA he sings about, and I've seen my share of Bremalows).

That's okay! I was just being nosy. LOL.

You will never catch me listening to rap or hip hop. Can't stand that nonsense.

I can't imagine what I did for music before the iPod. I have a Nano, and it's filled with everything from the Allman Brothers to ZZ top. Mostly Blues and classic rock, lots of Buffett, some country, etc. I fill it with stuff I'd never hear on the radio.

That's usually the best stuff, in my opinion :)

I'm still in the stone age then, no Ipod or any music thing for me, except my phone.

Alas, I have no IPod
I think I have one of these in my storage room somewheres

As for music I like glances at CD collection
AC/DC, Black Sabbath, early Marillion, Foghat, UFO, Mike Oldfield, Ry Cooder, SRV,
Frank Marino, Metallica, 38 Special, Yes, early Rush, and the Dixie Dregs.
-
I have everything on my MP3 from Boston to Kottenmouth Kings. Classic Metallica (Never thought I would say that) to Insane Clown Posse. Over 500 songs ranging to every genre imaginable. Even Etta James' At Last.

Ditto.
And I don't have an i-Pod or any other kind of digital portable device.
-
Wow! I thought I was the last remaining soul on the planet to not own one of these. Who knew? :-)
-

And I have no plans on buying one - or anything like it - in the future.
I'm purely okay with my CD player at home and in the car. Got satellite radio at home too, which is almost as good.
-

Yeah, but in my defense I just bought a kick ass fridge. LOL!
-
I can' say, I don't own one, or, as a matter of fact, a cell phone. I hate both.

I have an mp3 dinosaur. It only has 64 Meg on Ram but is expandable to 512 ? You want it ??
-

Well, that's nice too!
The only reason I finally bought one is because I'll use it for my runs. I know I'll get my money's worth out of it.
Up until then, I didn't want the expense. My Sony Walkman worked just fine for some tunes.
-
Yeah, just wait til it breaks and nobody can fix it.
Did you read the "reviews" of those things?
At least it is better than the new Maytags, it doesn't catch on FIRE.
I have a few friends that purchased LG refrigerators and they've had no problems with them.

Thanks for your kind offer, Rob, but I really don't have a use for it. I don't listen to music unless I'm at home (and that damned TV is turned off - Mrs. E LOVES her freakin' TV :banghead: ) or in the car.
We used to bowl with a couple who wore their i-Pods while bowling. And even once in a while I see some yahoo yapping on a cell phone while bowling.
Un-freaking-believable. :mental:
-
I have about 350 songs on mine, from George Strait to Veggie Tales including Will Smith, Michael Buble, a couple movie sound tracks....quite an eclectic collection.

My Zune contains the following:
OAR
3 Doors Down
CCR
Led Zeppelin
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Trans-Siberian Orchestra
a couple movie soundtracks
John Michael Montgomery
Clay Walker
George Strait

Patsy Cline
Kenny Chesney (only 3 of his more romantic songs... I was in a romantic mood the day I bought those songs. LOL )
Michael Buble
Dope
Godsmack
Garbage
Gavin Rossdale
Soul Asylum
Allison Krauss and Union Station

We've got similar tastes, ACC!

I have Love & Memories and Shattered on my iPod right now.

Try "Crazy Game of Poker," "This Town" and "What is Mine." Those are my personal favorites, aside from "Shattered."
:)

I mostly listen to audio books on my mp3 player and then mostly positive thinking sort of stuff like the last one I got was Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People and it was really good. Right now listening to The Master Key System which is an amazing book. Hard to believe it was first written about 1919 or so.
My music is mostly Classical, Opera, and New Age like Cusco.

I got one of those for my birthday one year maybe when I was 10 or 11. Even then I didn't understand the point of 8-tracks and especially hated when a song faded out on one track to be faded in on the next but my inborn snobbishness aside I played the hell out of it. I think I got Styx The Grand Illusion and the Gordon Lightfoot with the Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald and Race Among the Ruins for that same birthday.

So How do you listen to your music? Break out the old 78 player and crank the Perry Como? :-)

I did get rid of my 8-track tapes about 3 years ago. I still have about 4 boxes of LPs in the basement getting moldy.
The 2000 Accord has a cassette player, and the 2004 Toyota mini-van has a CD player.
I've got a few hundred CDs. And I buy a few here and there.
CDs ain't dead yet. And when they die, I'll hang onto the bastards till the gummint comes and takes 'em away.
