Best thing I've ever found. But it's a bit annoying that you can't adjust the volume when in a menu, and iTunes is utterly gay.
EDIT: Anything but the Shuffle. Other mp3 devices are available.

Can you stick any music on your computer onto an ipod?

that allows you to drag and drop the files you want onto the memory, and you can arrange the files in whatever folders you want.
But with my iTunes and the iPod, it automatically synchronises with playlists in iTunes, which is very tedious, and for some inexplicable reason, some of my songs are in there three times. I guess it takes some getting used to, but I prefer the way the iRiver allows you to arrange files.

So that you can only update what folders/files you choose.

I have a Nano... they are ok, but the battery life is a bit crap. I probably wouldn't buy another one when this eventually dies.
I just loved them for their tinyness.

-Monolith looks like a Brick/Dictaphone ... Bricktaphone!
-iRivers are ugly as fuck and a blatant copy of all things iPod. Plus, their new one, which plays videos, only has 2gb of space .... which is nothing.
-The advert made the sony one seem really small, but it's actually huge. And screenless.
-Creative Zens are huge and also ugly. They look like a melge of an iPod and an iRiver, and it doesn't work.
You can't get better than an iPod. I've had my 1st Gen Mini since they came out ... about 2 years ago, and it hasn't broken once. People who think iPods are overrated just don't know what they're on about, haven't tried using one, or doesn't understand iTunes (because they're total idiots. It's not hard!)
