Did anyone see the latest price decrease apple came out with?

512MB Shuffle for 70
1GB Shuffle for 100
1GB Nano for 150
2GB Nano for 200
4GB Nano for 250

I have a feeling this is going to sell a ton of 512mb shuffles and 1gb Nanos.

I'm pretty sure it was today...and there was a big press release. Could be wrong though.

Apple didn't make a press release about it, but everyone else did. It happened today, and all I want are new shuffles. Those motherfuckers better please me.

what are the shuffles gonna be like? i wouldn't be surprised if the entire shuffle line was discontinued

justinag06

naw no reason too

not everyone wants to spend $150 on an ipod, but everyone still wants one.

shuffles just appeal to a certain more casual section of the market, they don't interfere with ipod sales either.

They probably will be; they suck right now.

If those things were half the size I'd be hitting it like a ripe plum. Or something.

slease make a music icon for all the music threads.

07-02-2006 20:07:33

i dunno if they are but i wont get a new one until they do. i will probably just settle for a 60 soon but i am so sick of my fucking nano! i have to rotate songs on it so much. 4gb is too small (

I don't really see the point in a 1gb ipod (other than the shuffle) i mean you have the color screen and everything but you can olny hold like 4 cds. If your going to go that low whats the point an even buying the ipod? mine aswell save $75 and buy the 2.5gb rave-mp.

Alright, here you go, but with this request comes responsibility. It's your job to convince admin to take the time to add this plus these others I've done and remove some of the useless ones like Cool4Free, Coobro, Gusto, Gratis, DVRS4Free.

if they made the shuffle thin as hell it would be more worth it. as it is now it just doesn't appeal to me. If the moblu or whatever that tiny cube thing is call, can have a screen on it they can at least shrink the shuffle to near microscopic levels.

what the heck do you need with a 100gig ipod? i have a 60 and can only fill slightly more than half with all my mp3s and videos....and i have a damn big collection. unless ur planning on having movies perpetually on ur ipod, which i dunt really see a point to doing.

tramahound

My itunes library just hit 80gb so having the extra room for movies and files would be nice.
Just think, in 5 years or so 100gb will seem like nothing. They'll have a holographic storage medium that'll hold TB worth of data! Progress is great.

I always end up filling my iPods, no matter how much space I have on them. It seems the amount of space on my iPod dictates how often I buy music.

1TB iPods for life.

my itunes library is around 65gb and my foobar library is slightly less than that. i wouldnt use videos that much but i get sick of moving things around a lot.
