  • @Pacguy19 dont use the earbuds they give you get some headphones. i did that with my ipod and notice a huge sound improvement trust me those gay ass earbuds they give you suck use some headphones.

  • @whtfang91 i agree with you

  • i hate people that go to these videos and say they hate ipods just because they want to agree with the maker of theses videos......good god we all have em jsut this dont like em im ok with that everyone get over yourselves!

  • i only have an iPod cuz its like my own lightweight video camera. i Loire cds much better.

  • MP3s are the exact same music that you know and love simply saved into a digital format that reserves the original quality of the work. I tried downloading songs of Kiss, Poison, Bon Jovi, and others from the 80's that have been made into MP3s, and believe it or not, the quality is the same, if not better, than the original album's music. Sure it's not the same as having a record or CD of the album, but it isn't the unholy abomination that the 4y guy makes it out to be.

  • @whtfang91 You must have the worst ears in the world, then. MP3's often leave quite noticeable (at least to me) compression artifacts, such as ringing. Plenty of people can hear these same problems. Thus, the quality is not "the same, if not better".

  • @pacguy19

    I'm an audio student who has analyzed audio, I think I know what I'm talking about. It's true that MP3's have minor sound issues, but again, it's no different from having a slightly scruffed CD or a lightly scratched record. The quality is practically the same, and if you want it better, simply buy the CD and burn the music at a better format, though I wish you luck getting it to work on your player.

  • lol hipsters...fucking c%$ts

  • Ohh, I see Evanescence in the background!

  • Man, that guy owns a dream job, he can bitch at everyone he wants cuz he is the only CD store nearby within 90 miles or something. :D

  • $35.00 for a record? I got my sister a Billy Idol record at my local Goodwill for .99 cents and it had NO marks! Plays awesome! I buy all my records there if I'm looking for something different.

  • Saw my favorite band poster. My life is awesome :D

  • MP3 is poor quality? My ass.  I always manage to get good quality. Granted, it's probably taken straight from the CD (converted from WMA, probably).

  • JI Mathers is our god....

  • Personally when it comes to headphones I prefer audiotechnica they're on the pricey side but they're wonderful in terms of sound quality, aesthetics, and build quality.

  • @theblackraven Skullcandy is of good quality too. But they break VERY easily.

  • @keniakittykat If by good quality you mean overpriced, over marketed trash then ya they're great.

  • @theblackraven I mean the sound quality is pretty good, they're not that expensive anymore and the fad died out 3 years ago. (the big ones are no more then 25 bucks over here)

  • The earphones that came with my IPod were just torn apart in weeks. Same with the ones I had with my CD player. Never use those things.

  • I need to use that loading loading loading trick more often xD

  • The headphones that come with MP3 players suck... thank God for Sennheiser.

  • Gummy works fine as headphones, it sounds great, and mine haven't broken like the supposedly better ones that cost more and break in the first two weeks.

  • ughhh i can't stand the headphones that come with my mp3 player, my AKGs are so much better <3

  • Evanescence poster in the background.

    Great choice. <3

  • Beats = Nigger Fuel

    Skullcandy = I want better sound but am too retarded to understand what I'm buying

    AKG master race

  • The best headphones I ever had were ones that I got in a crapload of shit for my GBA sp. If they ever die, I'm taking myself with them... (I doubt they will, considering they are over 5 years old)

  • @AggroVolken I like skull candy, sound quality is nice and they don't hurt your ears. I like them but thats me, but you should look into them

  • I use the earbuds that comes with the ipod only because I paid over 200 dollars for the classic so yeah bonus earbuds. Great! Until they wear out, then I switch to marshmellow.

  • Anybody know of any good brands of headphones? Preferably on the ear headphones?

  • @AggroVolken Bose is a good brand for the price. Skullcandy also makes wraparound headphones...your choice. Both brands are well known and pretty pricy.

  • @nyuuchan356 Friend on Facebook recommended Skullcandy too and the lifetime warranty they have is promising so far. Saw some nice styles and I liked the around the ear ones so far. Thanks.

  • @AggroVolken no prob.

  • skull candy aint that great. they look great they dont have that awesome sound quality

  • KILL HER!

  • I honestly hate my ipod. the damn thing keeps going on the fritz and every MP3 i've ever owned has broken within a few weeks because they're nothing but pieces of shit to make you look like you're keeping up with society's standard of cool. I personally love Cd's and if i could bring my boom box to school and listen to them i would but no. the teachers say something like that would distract the other students. Well what about the kids that blast their ipod speakers in the middle of the halls?

  • man my friend still has the headphones that came with her ipod but i have has like 10+ headphones since i got my ipod....AND we got the ipods a few weeks apart..

  • Can someone decode the binary on the register? It's @ 0:12.

  • @nyuuchan356 It means this ->  ‹5'

  • @nyuuchan356 �Ô�¨ <- there you go.... That is what I got from using a fucking 2 second search on Google. Get off your lazy ass, and do a fucking google search once in a while...

  • @MrThetronica excuse me, mr. testy. I was just asking a question, no need to spam flames everywhere.

  • dude u have MSI, evanescance, and green day!!! if u were a real person i would marry u!!!

  • YES! evanescance AND MSI i love this store! :D

  • "Please WEAR clothes from the current decade"

  • Record are now reduced to some fashion statement. For ppl who think their so hip, that they buy the most greatest albums ever and nail it to their apartment walls. So when their friends come over and visit they'll notice how cool and awsum. Their friends are because they have a Rolling stones or a white strips record cracked and nailed to a piece of dry wall. Everytime i see people do this it makes me want to rip that record out of their hands and murder them with their ipiss!/

  • @Jamchanizhere Why the FUCK would you nail a vinyl to a damn wall?! What the fuck is the purpose of that shit?!

  • @PixiesintheBrugh Idk as the hipster dumbshits that do it not me

  • @Jamchanizhere Seriously, I have no idea what all this anger about hipsters is. I must not have run into any.

  • @Jamchanizhere why not just paint a pic of a record instead of destoying one?

  • @ilovecoffeev cause for hipsters it's more "Retro" to have an actual record than a painted one

  • @Jamchanizhere Did you know that retro means backwards,so yes,it is very "retro" to mess up a perfectly good record,idiots. -_-

  • @ilovecoffeev I know what retro mean, they just don't understand the idea of the record they just think it's a flimsy, large black disk that grandma uses and so they nail it to their walls or paste it to the ceiling to look cool. Besides why listen to records when you have your Mp3 players and can download music. The world of good music is dead, swept up under the carpet and left forgotten

  • @Jamchanizhere Then why even use a record if no one cares about them any more? If nobody gets the idea then why even pretend to? Also I got that you know the word,I was trying to make the point that people who pretend to be "Retro" are just people who think backwards,at least the majority of them are.People who nail or paste records to walls are just sad posers who try to be "Retro"

  • @ilovecoffeev thats my girl..:)

  • @Jamchanizhere dude so what it's like putting posters up on you're wall, i'd put some of my favorite albums on my wall if i could

  • @Jamchanizhere I agree also people don't go with the crowd it is pointless and end up with you spending all this money on pointless items.

  • CDs are how I put music on my Ipod! I still need them!!!!!!.......I'm paranoid about online purchases, (puts on a tin foil hat) *they are watching you!*

  • I'm surprised that someone all about common sense is using the erroneous argument that Mp3s are "poor quality".

    If you rip a CD at 320kbs, the only ones who would notice the difference are the super elitist golden-eared audiophiles.

    It is literally impossible, otherwise, to discern the difference.

    In fact, many people with thousands of dollars worth of equipment have said that 256kbs is the maximum efficient quality, because afterward, you reach the point of diminishing returns.

  • @AtariMaxiToriyama I've recently tested this myself. I did an ABX test to compare WAV files and a high-quality MP3 files, which I encoded in VBR at the highest quality using the LAME encoder. I did 30 tests and I couldn't confidently tell the difference between the WAV and the compressed file.

  • @Solitaire001 And, I rest my case. (Thanks, Solitaire)

  • hehe loading loading loading :P

  • this is the best episode!

  • In all honesty, Greenday and the 'Warning' title are actually ... spot on ! really spot effin on ! Love it when bands have selfhumour even tho its probably completely unintentional

  • @TheAmbiorixXx Yeah, those songs that are all about how fucked up life and the world and the oblique situations people find themselves in but are just so happy-sounding and up-beat (like basket case, I'm just a kid, misery or even long way to ruin) is like watching the news while eating sugary ice cream. which I dig the crap out of =D

  • @keniakittykat exactly !

  • 0:09 typo on the screen lol

  • Comment removed

  • some Awesome Bands in the BG

  • I see green day ,evanescence and mindless self indulgence in the background

  • i have a mp3 but the ear-buds hurt so i got skull-candy ^ ^

  • I don't buy music anymore, the money isn't going to the artists its just going to labels, and I'm not going to waste my money on itunes

  • modern sony walkman....

    ipod users be jelly....

  • 27 persons has been to this shop and got "loading".

  • there is an mindless self indulgence record "Frankenstein girls will seem strangely sexy" in the background

  • hey at 0:15 what does that Binary Code translate into?

  • The background is awesome! Love Evanescence! :)

  • hahaha i hang out at my local record store and theres a dude just like this who works there he hates people with ipods YAY VINYL

  • I never fucking keep the shitty headphones that come with my devices. I got me some Altec Lansing phones, seriously some of the best quality headphones I ever owned.

  • I can't tell the difference between CD's and MP3's as far as audio quality goes. They also both sound like shit to me.

  • mindless self indulgence :D

  • I still go out of my way to buy the CDs, actually. I just like the idea of actually owning something physical that I can put in to produce the music. I still have a ton of cassete tapes too, and listen to them regularly, and I do own a vinyl record player and several vinyl albums, but most of those were "rescued" from being thrown away, and honestly, I don't listen to them as often as the other forms.

    P.S.: Who the hell throws away a vinyl copy of The Wall?! O.O

  • Thumbs up for hating thumbs up comments.

  • ... Am I the only person watching this wanting to marry that guy?

  • ANI DIFRANCO IN THE BACKGROUND! HELL YES!!!

  • No-one cares about music, Jonathan. :,(

  • Love the Evanescence, Green Day, and MSI stuff in the background.

    THIS STORE IS FUCKIN' AWESOME

  • Music should not be a fad. .______.

  • Mindless. Self. Infuckingdulgence.

    Yes.

  • Thumbs up if u hate the headphones that come with ur ipod or mp3....i cant use em...they are trashy crap...i need either Beats or Skullcandy...

  • @jstynsktr I use beats and I love them :)

  • @jstynsktr skullcandy is da bomb! get it!

  • @jstynsktr Oh my god, thank you! I hate Apple's iPod headphones. Then again (and sorry if this sounds Hipster) I just hate buds, period. So damned uncomfortable!

  • @jstynsktr Well, that and they do make the music you listen to sound like crap.

  • @jstynsktr not necessarily... i had some phones that came with an RCA mp3 player that were really good quality and outlived the player. they're dead now. But stereo headphones beat out earbuds any day!

  • @jstynsktr

    Thats why my mom got me the new head phones.My brother said.Dude I can hear your i pod from across the room!Mom got me new head phones.He had to be right by my ear to hear it.So your Ipod's first head set is normally very fucking loud till you get new ones

  • @jstynsktr Downvoted because Beats and Skullcandies are shit.

  • @jstynsktr Upvoted for level 9001 trolling

  • @jstynsktr oh my god is that a joke? seriously, please tell me that's a joke

  • @jstynsktr ive used both and skulls are terrible quality but comfort at a cheap price and beats are over priced but a good quality not the best but good i found a sures for 100 were just as good as my friend who had beats for 200 

  • @jstynsktr Both of those brands are better than stock, but are more show than go. Get Sennheiser, Westone, or Shures if you want the best sound per dollar.

  • icu Evanescence and Green Day album covers

  • for a moment there at 0:42 i thought he was reaching for his gun or an object to throw at her

  • i got nothing against skull candies, i love their earphones but i dont like earphone sound quality, so i use headphones... for the best i use Turtle beach... pricy but i care about my music, i even have a sound card with the ability to simulate uncompressed mp3's as they play... it is the best...

  • XD thanks dude. now I can do the Loading loading loading loading thing whenever some one pisses me off.

  • Skullcandy's are BEST earbuds and Arial7's are BEST large headphones! AND BOTH ARE CHEAPER THEN THOSE POS APPLE EARBUDS! I mean $50 for crappy headphones? are you kidding me? And if you think thet are good you must never have tried GOOD headphones.

  • Buying bulky records because it's... retro? Yeah, I'll buy Final Fantasy 7 on 3 discs for $100 rather than download it on my PSP for $10. Uh huh... a much better choice indeed.

  • all my stuff is on flac

    im grooving to summer madness and everybody loves the sunshine by roy ayers

    cant wait to afford a turntable

  • Who cares if it's an MP3 or a CD? It's still music, nevertheless.

  • @TheSickHumanBeing Yes, but with audiophiles, we tend to want to listen to music on the highest level of quailty. Certain MP3's (depending on the way they're coded) show little problems like ringing and an underwater-like sound when compressed too much. Thus, they ruin the sound quality for the people who can hear it.

  • Comment removed

  • My ears can't even hold the iPod earbuds anyway. And I agree they suck.

  • i agree with the headphones comment the earbuds suuuuck i oly use dj style headphones for my music doesnt make it sound like its coming from a tunnel e.e

  • @MusicForLife1105 if you use skullcandy earbuds, its not so bad. they are some of the better ones you can get for not alot of money

  • @masteroffate2692 true ive used skullcandy buds once before and i will say they are good earbuds but mostly earbuds arent so great

  • @MusicForLife1105 I do like Skullcandy, but they break way too easy. I've gone through like 6 pairs. ugh.
