Since technology is getting better, and we are starting to get higher storage on memory cards, do you think it will ever phase out ipods completely? My ipod died around a year ago, and i keep meaning to get one, however having a phone and a 16gb memory card inside it, i have never seen the need to get another ipod, even though ipods are amazing! Or are they? They play your music and can be used as an external hdd. A phone however obviously does what an ipod can do, but with the added advantage of being a.. phone!
So does the ipod still have a use? And would you ever start using your phone as your mp3 player too?

I never want to listen to music through my phone (unless it is the iPhone). I have tried this in the past in an effort to consolidate my gadget inventory, but I have found nothing that satisfy my needs. Also, my providers music service is something I wish not to subscribe to in order to listen to music. I have tried the iPhone, and loved how it does everything so well. I only wish for three things: My carrier to receive it (Verizon), larger storage capacity, and to make it cost effective). Right now I have an 80gig classic iPod, and I don't see any memory cards with that kind of capcity coming out soon.

I do have a few songs on my ipod touch, but just a very few, as I have a cell phone that takes a memory card, and I use it once In awhile to listen to music. The phone isn't acitated, so that is all I use it for. It is my previous phone before the one I have now. i don't have any music on music on my ne phone at all, since I have the other one to play music on. I use my opod more for the apps than the muic anyway. Take care, and happy mylotting.
