    Oh, and ever since I saw someone wearing this t-shirt, I can't help but read the thread title as the same thing. slant

    Me, I'm waiting for a 1TB mp3 player.
    164 GB simply is way too small. sad

    Size is important for me too!

    In an ideal world I'd like to have all my music on a portable player. If only there was a screen interface I could add to my external hard drive!!

    Hmm, that's not a bad idea. All this interface would need is a USB port, an audio out and some media software to play the music. Have a slot for the hard drive, et voilà you have a portable music player that's also very easy to upgrade.

    Come to think of it, is there a product like that anywhere??

    Portable?
    No.

    Good. I'm gonna steal the idea and make a shit load of money.

    I'll try to remember you when I'm rich.

  6. I'm wondering if this has already been covered here?

    But £470 for a 500GB version seems a bit expensive when a 500GB external hard drive is so cheap compared to this.

    Getting back to the 160GB iPod Classic...now that the new generation of iPods have been announced but without any upgrade to the Classic, I've been reading that there's the chance that Apple are phasing out the Classic. Maybe now is the time to buy? £175 from Amazon seems to be the current price.

    Where have you been reading that, Alan? confused
    As far as I know the Classic is going VERY strong indeed, with the replacement 120 GB version having been phased out already to accomodate the older 160 GB one!

    The only reason I can imagine for Apple to not upgrade the Classic at this point is that their previous "upgrade" (i.e. the 120 GB one) failed miserably, and that unless they can squeeze in MORE disk space rather than less, they decided to leave well enough alone.

  8. It was just an opinion from a "tech commentator" based on the lack of any news on an updated iPod Classic.

    Ahhh, I see.
    No reason for panic just yet, then. smile

    Question for Erik or anyone familiar:

    is the "convert to 128kbps aac" option in itunes of any use if you're going to listen on ipod via conventional medium prized in-ear (plug) headphones? Is there noticable decrease of quality for this kind of playback or is it generally un-noticable?

  11. Sorry I can't help here.

    But your post reminds me that I am not a complete iTunes/iPod adopter. The 4-5 albums I have bought from iTunes I have converted to 320kbps mp3 files. Sounds okay to me.

    You should always go for the highest quality encode and/or never transcode from another lossy source. The lowest encoding rate that you want to go with is 192k aac. 192acc sound fine and takes Superman ears to hear the difference between that and CD.

    Aaaargh. Finally got round to updating my iPod to IOS 5.0.1 and it seems to have killed the damn thing. After six hours of it saying "Syncing artwork" (after installing the update) I cancelled the sync... since when it hasn't worked at all. I've restored the iPod on itself, also through iTunes (which very conveniently also deleted all my music off it)... and it still doesn't work. Most recent error is "Cannot find the pairing file", which I can make go away by restoring the software (yet again), after which it will attempt to sync and fail.

    I can't seem to find any info on this issue but pairing issues usually have something to do with Wi-Fi. Anyway, have you tried restarting your computer as well?

    I didn't think of the Wi-Fi thing - I'll try turning that off. I did try restarting my computer. The latest "restoration" has deleted everything off it again. Aaaargh!

    iTunes is up-to-date? 10.5.1 is the most recent version?

    It is. It finally decided to work after about the fifth restore! Very odd (+annoying).
