So my friend bought me this really boss pair of headphones. I love headphones with good bass :)

Now....is it worth it to get the iPod Touch? I was thinking about buying myself one for Christmas. I wanna enhance my music experience? Or if anyone else has a really good Mp3 lemme know. Interested in hearing different opinons.

honestly, tech, most major mp3 (or similar) commercial players will have similar audio quality, so you should really be aiming for whatever major features you want in it. The smartphone = music player is a pretty good choice if you were going to use a smartphone anyways. There are a lot of reasonably priced android phones out there now.

edit: even if you can't afford a data plan, (afaik) all major carriers will still let you use a smartphone, but w/o a data plan, and this will 9 times out of 10 be more cost effective than buying an iPod Touch.

I guess I'm not looking for anything really fancy. I just need a functional player. I mean extra features are nice but I can live without all that. And I honestly want my mp3 separate from my phone just because I do not feel like charging my phone all the time.

well, if you just need something functional and don't care about fancy, there are tons of really cheap players out there that are smaller than an iPod Touch. You could pick one of those up for like, under $30 even. Or you could look into what Rockbox works on and use their alternate firmware for additional formats and battery life.

yeah, mine holds 16GB, but I rarely use more than 4GB of it. Then again, I rarely listen to more than ~300 songs at a time.

anyone want a GTX260 core 216 factory overclocked, performs ~GTX275 $100

It can easily handle SC2 on max settings (either 4x AA or SSAO but not both)

I'm coming to get you guys in AA. Also I'll get back to you later today about the time schedule, I'm currently running off no sleep since my friends and I did an all nighter.

I know for a fact I've put on more than 10k on each of two tags in my first year of competitive play alone.
Hmm... 20,000 games, at an average of 3 min per game, is 60,000 min. Which is 1000 hrs, or 2.8 hrs of play every single day for an entire year... yeah that sounds about right, lol.

Everyone knows AKG are the best headphones :yeahboi:

@gio: yoooooo I have 1.06TB of music

@Tech/anyone else in the GPU market: I've got one of these that I'll sell for $100 http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1113/1/

@Bowyer: lol. I'm glad you actually ran that calculation. It's funny cause that actually probably does back that claim

1.06 TERRABYTES?

Holy **** I need to step it up lmao.

Also ...*drools* at the link. That ....would everything soooo pretty.
