Is an MP3 player as good as an Ipod?

An Ipod is much better in many ways, but if it's only for the music you want it,
then I guess it's ok.

i think an ipod is better then an mp3 becuase its features are more than mp3. and it is not so much expensive as compare to sacrifice of features

I think they're pretty much the same. Of course, a i gb ipod is really cheap nowadays. you can try getting the older version too. That way, you'll get a great deal on it now that you would have last year. But still, mp3s are cheaper so if you're on a budget then get an mp3 player instead. I like the functions of an ipod and its overall design more but an mp3 should work fine/:)
