  • i bought 3 computers from best buy, and they all crashed when i turned them on, i don't buy things from best buy anymore. The sad part, is that that incident convinced me to buy a mac....

  • I find that iPod stability really depends on what generation you have. It seems that the newer things are, the faster they need to be replaced. A few years ago my associates were jumping off the bridge where I live (it's a pass time), not realizing their iPods were still in their pockets. Once getting out of the water and realizing their error, they also realized that they still work fine. New ones, though, are succumbing to my electrical disposition that earlier had only discharged flashlights.

  • @XadorKatal

    "A few years ago my associates were jumping off the bridge where I live (it's a pass time)," this statement completely lost me to the rest of what you were saying 0.o xD

  • @SirezX My apologies, SirezX, I was unable to explain further in the 500 character limit. I live on an island that experiences the highest tides in the world so a bridge that is almost empty at low tide has enough water within it to jump safely from a two story building at high tide. It is a great deal of fun, though jumping time only lasts an hour or so. :)

  • @XadorKatal

    It's cool...I just found it rather funny to be honest...haha...sounds fun though for jumping off a bridge

  • WTF, ipods are super fragile, anything else lasts longer, i have this 10 year old mp3 that still works, but my super hi tech ipod doesnt, , i only stopped using the first one cuz, well, i wanted more than 256 mb

  • I have an iPod clone ... Colby! It's awesome for what it is.

  • I left my iPod in my pocket and it went through the wash. The screen doesn't work at all and needs to be plugged in to work. I don't think my music is on it either.

  • at about 1:01 he starts sounding like he's trying to imitate Tobuscus :D

  • Rofl, then dont just put moneeeeeeeh (sorry) into your pockets. we have the wallet :)

    Tissues are indeed a problem...

  • I dropped my iPod in a cup of water... Then it slipped out of my hand and fell in again... And then 2 weeks later I dropped it in another cup of water AGAIN. It's 7 years old, it's been dropped in cups of water 3 times, fallen/throw to the ground so many times I can't even count, and it still works great. Steve Jobs was the man.

  • It's like Apple is everything- don't get me wrong I do have Apple products. But where did Sony go?! I STILL LOVE YOU SONY! YOU'RE STILL IN MY HEART! <3

  • If I get put in the laundry, will I come out sounding like Louis Armstrong, too?

  • My dad's iPod shuffle got ran over by a double decker bus and dropped in the toilet. Still works just fine...

  • Blah, Apple. How about, "Be Careful?" Somewhere, I have a V Touch MP3 Player and it is AWESOME. It's not in the wash. I just have it with some music I was working with - which is in a few places around my house - and forgot which place I left it. It's cheaper than an Ipod and has AWESOME sound. Mine even came with some sample of "binaural sound."

  • Creative Zens have great sound quality compared to iPods. i have an iPod touch now since my Creative Zen Vision M got stolen, i thought iPod was better than my Zen but some of the detail of a song is missing in iPod which is present in Zen. I recommend Creative Zen over iPod based on sound quality and player's life.

  • You know what else gets bouched arond in your pocket....

  • Its funny coz the mp3 player is black.

  • @foxek22 sorry misspelled name. It never did work

  • @foxekk22 no it doesn't it never has worked

  • lol back in the day when they put HDDs in mp3 players. wow.

  • he should make a new video and replace anything but ipod with zune lol i think microsft and apple are really going at it now a days

  • *IMPORTANT* - If you ever have any device get wet, or drop it in water. Immediatly take it out, TURN IT OFF, try to dry it off as much as possible, then place it in a bowl of rice and LEAVE IT ALONE. Rice will suck up all the moisture, and the longer you leave it the better of a chance you will have to make it work again.

  • Thumbs up if you actually searched anythingbutipod (dot) com

  • lol

  • "MP3's... You can break em down into 2 categories... Ipod... and everything else."

    The one of the most factual statements anyone can make without a google search.

  • iPods technically are not MP3 players. They play a proprietary file format called AC3 I think. That's why you have to use iTunes to put stuff on an iPod....lots of regular MP3 players will let you just drag/drop files and folders....just sayin'.

  • @auburntaco @auburntaco MP3 Players use the MP3 tag because that was the original popular file extension name of the compression used in the music players to shrink the size. iPods DO support mp3, along with a list of other formats shown here: support.apple.com/kb/TA38530#1 . They default to some DRM extensions to help prevent copyright distribution. If you want a true open source file extension, check out *.ogg. however, mp3 also has no DRM-related systems built into it.

  • so... your brother's MP3player is black? o.O

  • ZUNE HD!!

  • @josh14455 YES!! DOWN WITH I-PODS!!

  • I had a creative Zen 8gb harddrive mp3 player. I loved it. Dropped it 3 times. Hasnt worked since. I still have it in case it wants to come back to life.  Lesson learned, bought a 4gb flash walkman :)

  • *Pause

    *Play

    *Press 4

    " I thought i was a gonner man!" :D

  • i think you should do a vid on music.... ALL TYPES!

  • suht pede oled ...

  • a bus drove over mine and it still worked... it was just embarassing to use. (not an icrap)

  • But in the future we call them MP48s and they play HHDDVVDD BVDS now.

  • whell, what do you know. The anything but ipod site is really real :D

  • I dumped my water all over my macbook pro and it stopped working, but them a week later it started working again.

  • My iPod shuffle went through the dryer and washer 6 times before I got a new one xD It still works lol.

  • Zunes ftw!!

  • @mgunner222 bitch, zune sucks

  • 1:01 - 1:06 anyone seen Arrested Development? Its Franklin!

  • THUMBS UP FOR ZUNES!!

  • you forgot about zune

  • why does every black person think if a white person say something like " oh i hate the color black its so depressing" IMMEDIATLY a black person says THAT'S RACIST!! but then they say YOU WHITE ASS HONKIE MOTHA FUCKA ... does anyone get that

  • Once dropped a creative Zen into a cup of tea. It dried out and worked again. Do like.

  • ipod failz

  • A red sansa MP3 player tons of space and holy god It only takes about an hour and a half to get a complete charge from dead

  • yeah, i dropped my ipod in the pool while i was working on the siding. i had my headphones on, and the sound didn't change, so it took me a while to realize that it was completely submerged in the water. still works like a charm three months later. even the screen still works.

  • Why did the ipod speak like a black guy ? that's racist....

  • @rafwai123 And it's not racist at all to say that something sounds "like a black guy". No, not at all. [end sarcasm]

  • @mylesloach Why would that be racist?

  • @ThreeSeventyFive To say that something "sounds like a black guy" implies that all black guys sound the same. They don't.

  • @effruman i cant help but think your a lil bit.jealous that macs work better than pcs are you some 40 year old virgin living in your mothers basement typing that comment

  • @lopley88 while i don't understand a word he just wrote Macs don't work "better" than pc's just differently. i use a combination of linux and windows because i like the flexibility, the ability to game and the feel of the interfaces, sure they're not as stable as mac's but i don't feel comfortable in a working environment that is so restricting, particularly because of the extortionate prices and difficulty of servicing . so please think before you next say "mac's are just better"

  • I was told my iPod nano would break in 2 weeks when i got it. That was about 4 years ago. It's been through the washer and dryer TWICE and it still works like a charm. just freezes when I plug it into a mac.

  • Okay, man, I usually put up with some of your biased garbage, but iPods and Mp3s are just... It's not even a fight. This is the only question for buying a music rectangle: "Do I want cool-looking, expensive software that is designed to break in around 2 years, or cool-looking cheap software that will probably break in 2 years on its own."

    That's all there is to it, Apple fanboy. If you like shiny, and a computer isn't enough for you, go buy that iPod.

  • @effrumman That is such a great unbias point, aside from the fact I have a perfectly fine working ipod that I've dropped washed left in the rain and its been around 4 years now and still works like a charm, apple products are build to last, everything else sucks. End of your pathetic story. kthxbai

  • This is my first iPod and it's a touch and this comment is done on an iPod touch this comment sounds really repettive now

  • I found your show earlier today... okay - late yesterday would probably be more correct - and I do admit to being a fan... already. I love the sarcasm... which is, for once, completely understandable as well as the brilliant use of facts that makes it more fun to learn stuff. :) hehe - got an ipod last time... my old one simply did not have the battery capacity to fit my need. Even though Itunes is a very disliked program that I am no, unfortunately, forced to learn.

  • iPod is just fine, has good music quality (depends on your headphones aswell) en is either small or flat.. or both.

    However... connecting it to a windows machine (which the majority of the users will) can always end up in an error.

    Then there is this weird thing with IPod generations. I've had a 1st gen IPod for 3 or 4 years.. and my little brother a 3rd gen (he got his much later). He also bought a batery charger for it. Which works with the 1st till 3rd gen.. but not with my new 5th gen. WTF!?

  • i've got an archos 5 internet tablet! i recomend to every1!

    u can do: music, movies, photos, take photos, internet (duh), aps from androind. all aps r freeeee!

  • Thank god I always forget to wash my clothes BEFORE I forget the electronics that I put in them.

  • Zune! ... I dunno I really like it,

  • love the talking ipod shuffle.

  • isint that an ipod shuffle hes taking crap about when hes saying MP3's are ??

  • Zunes are much better mp3 players than iPods. The only downside is Microsoft has a shitty library.

  • @thatlittleweirdkid totally!

  • My ipod nano was in my pocket when I went into a sandpit... then it was left outside overnight... and it rained... its fine but now only 1 side of the headphones works...

  • TALKIN IPOD RULE!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA i named mine! but mine is the newer one where u flip it and the screen changes. i should add a clip on it and make it talk!!!!!! WHHHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • LMFAO i tried anythingbutipod. com and it was a real site... wow

  • i did the same with my ipod nano. i accidenty dropped it in a bucket of water and it stopped working. i left it for about a month and it began working again! everything is fine music plays correctly screen lights up and its just like new....except its not new...

  • you shoulda put it in a bowl of rice my ipod touch got water spilled on it my mom put it in a bowl of rice and BAM works fine except it shuts off periodically on its own but it always did that

  • lol

    that was so funny

    ipod... and everything else

    lol

    im surprised u only got 2000 views

    this is worth a lot more

    good job

  • so entendi quando ele disse ipod hehehehe

  • I got this Sony think which is about 100 times better than any iPod

  • @TheBirdofTokyo the mp3 or the audiophones???

  • Comment removed

  • @TheBirdofTokyo so you mean the speakers from the sony... I dunno why some1 would hear music from the speakers from an ipOD

  • @TheBirdofTokyo The walkmen? i got that and i HATE it.

  • @TheBirdofTokyo Sony > Ipod most definately.

  • @TheBirdofTokyo mp3 players suck. ipod is way better!

  • @corvetteboy10

    ipod suck!

  • @amundead your just jelious of the iPods capabilities. Unlike your Zune and what ever else you use.

  • @TheBirdofTokyo

    yeah, because u've tried any iPod...

  • @TheBirdofTokyo HA that just made my night!!!!!!!

  • @TheBirdofTokyo and then you realize you can boot any OS onto an Ipod Touch. :D

  • Excuse you, I just got the ipod touch 4g, and NOTHING can beat it. Hands down. And yes I have tried the sony ones.

  • Zune is a much better MP3 player brand. I don't see why everyone like the iPod so much more. I've had almost all the iPod types up until the iPod touch and after getting the cheap 8gig zune, I've got to say it is way better. not only can it update itself when hooked to a computer which as far as I know, ipods can't, but you can share your music. You cant even put iTunes music on an MP3 phone because it is locked so only iPod products can use them. Just one of many things that make zune great!

  • that was an ipod

  • iPods play mp3s :P

  • kinda, but the files transfered are actually AAC files, not mp3's

  • Haha whatever XD They're MP3's to start with and they're MP3's when you transfer them out of iTunes so in my mind they're MP3's.

  • i accidentally left my month old Nano in my pocket back in January. i ran it through the wash and i was like *oh snap!*. i left it out on my desk for a month and BAM it started working again! the only thing that broke was my screen. it wont light up anymore.

    but all my music and videos were still perfect and it still works like new!

    if only that could have worked for my cell phone, which i accidentally left in my pocket about 2 weeks later :D

  • @GuitarGeekGirl haha I know right? My mom accidently washed mine as well, but after a couple of days it worked as fine as yours did(although mine didn't have ascreen)^U^

  • @Mariadelsol1011 I wish my mom would wash mine

  • @GuitarGeekGirl

    make it a habbit of checking pockets before putting it in the washer. We do that here ;-)

  • @EliteGhost001 I do that too, but more so in the hopes of finding money ;) Oh, and I hate washed tissues.

  • lucky. flash memory can break for no reason at all too.

  • Christian here the one that asked for this video

    oh and Cuzins you for got about Zunes i have a 30GB on and man can it hold videos

  • wow that was informative, but i think those 80gig-160gig mp3players/ipods are funny, i mean do you really go jogging for three weeks at a time. but great vid as always

  • If only microsoft and ,macs could converge. Ahh, what life would be like.

  • a very nice but expensive life :D

  • It would be just like Microsoft when the only products that worked with Windows were Microsoft products.

  • I can never decide what music to put on an MP3 player

  • buy a player with a lot of storage and put ALL your music on it ;) :D

  • lol lol lol  I want an IPod now that I've had a Mac for a few months. yay! ;D

  • wow.. i didnt know the anythingbutipod website existed.. lol

    thnx!

    i love EVERY topic about electronics...

    ok maybe not EVERY one..
