Default iPod Nano 4GB: Keep or eBay for a better mp3 player (suggestions welcome)



I won a brand new silver iPod Nano 4GB. What would you do with it?

Pros: easy interface, don't take a hit on money selling on ebay at bargain price

Cons: I burn with hate with the heat of ten thousand suns and want to strangle whoever thought it would be a good idea to force customers to install a proprietary file system to use a music player somewhat dislike iTunes and would love an alternative that lets me just copy files to my media player and play them. Or just get a fun media player that does what I want it to.

I think you should find out if it blends.

(or give it to me )

Oldie, less battery life than when I first got the sucker but I LOVE the sounds quality and how easy it is to add/remove media from it

Everyone says that, till they hear the superior sound fidelity from other players

The primary thing going for Apple is that everyone designs for their little players

I wish the entire market had more products for ALL players

Yeah, true - I guess I don't have much to compare it to.

I have been meaning to try those Bose headphones actually, supposed to really boost audio quality.

As a lover of good audio (and a happy owner of some Triports), what would be a good player?

I was so close to getting an iAUDIO M3, but alas I got an iPod. Way cheap price will always win out.
