Do you own an iPod, if so what kind? Where do you shop for your iPod accessories and what accessories do you currently own? What do you use your iPod for… music, video, pictures? Do you have it connected to your home theater? Do you subscribe to any podcasts, if yes what are they?

Yes, I own a recently purchased 30G video iPod. I use mine solely for music and I use it every day. I don't have it connected to my home theater yet, but I do plan to. Like I said, this is new, and I haven't gotten around to getting a dock to run it to my receiver yet, but I will. My old iPod did not have this capability, which is why I don't have that set up yet. I don't subscribe to any podcasts, but I do peruse them every so often.

Two actually: first gen 2GIG Nano that I use strictly for the gym/running and a 5th gen 30GIG Video Ipod.

The 30gig I use as to store all my music, videos, TV shows, audiobooks, pictures and podcast on(acts as a back-up incase my external HD ever dies on me). I use it mainly in my car, when I fly or whenever I don't have easy access to my laptop.

My accessories consist of a Belkin battery backup which is great for those international flights when you can't charge it. Iskin EVO 3 case for the 30gig and two Core Cases for the Nano. Also bought a pair of Shure E2C IEM for use with both. I'm in the process of looking for an dockable alarm clock right now.

The only podcast I currently subscribe to is the Comedy central one.

I currently don't have a dock to connect it to my home theater as of yet.

I don't currently own an Ipod. Until recently I've always scoffed at the at the whole portable technology thing. I never felt it would sound good enough.
I realize now that, depending on the file quality, it don't sound bad at all.
Add to this the fact that my workplace has banned streaming music on our computers, leaving me musicless, I may purchase an Ipod or something similar very soon.

 

[blownrx7]

Yes, Ipod Mini
Where to shop: Anywhere it's cheap - online; dollar stores, etc; NOT the mall or Apple sites
Used for music only
Not connected to HT. Come on, why don't I just hook up my tape player too...
No podcasts for me - too much bother.

 

[Josuah]

I own a 2nd generation 20GB iPod. The only accessories I've purchased for it are direct from Griffin Technology or off eBay: the iTrip and a leather case. I only use my iPod for music, but also as my address book and calendar. It is not connected to my home theater; I use iTunes for that. I am not currently subscribed to any podcasts.

My iPod has never been connected to my receiver, but that may change soon. (I plan on buying a new receiver, with iPod functionality, next year.) 5. I subscribe to several Podcasts; the MacCast, the HDTV & Home Theater Podcast, TWIT, Pardon The Interruption and The Macbreak Weekly.

I have a 40 Gig iPod G3 and a 4 Gig iPod mini, same vintage. I have a 1 Gig SanDisk Sansa too, but that doesn't count

I buy accessories anywhere. Previous vendors include Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Woot! .

For accessories, I have an Altec Lansing InMotion, Sony sound isolating earbuds, Sennheiser earbuds, Philips "virtual" surround earbuds, Griffin iTrip FM radio interface, and an iPod sock., among other things.

I use a low-tech adaptor cable to listen to (my captured lossless) iPod content on my audio system. Home theater it ain't.

I listen to Alpha Sierra Charlie (Don't let 'em get you down, Adam! ), The Onion, The (BBC) Today Show, Garrison Keillor's Writer's Almanac, TWiT, DiggNation, and Coverville. I would listen to more if I had more time.

I have a 2G Nano, which I use for music only during air travel and occasionally in the car, via a cable to the car stereo's input jack. The only accessory is a pair of Etymotic ER-6 earphones purchased on line. No present plans to hook up to home theatre, no interest in podcasts.

 

[korgoth]

i do not own an ipod. i think they are nice if you want somethin small, but i like having features, and the archos is much much better of a product.

i use my archos for music, movies, record and watch tv shows, voice recording, basically a portable home video and music collection that can easily hook up to any tv, or in the car

 

[DerekW]

I HAD a 4 gig nano, but lost it on a plane, my wife has an 4G ipod mini, my daughter has a 1G nano, and my son has a Shuffle. My next purchase will be the new 8 gig Nano. We're an Ipod family

We all just use them for music, though I've thought about buying some audio books. We have bought most of the accessories from the onlinee apple store, but some stuff at our local Future Shop. The acessories are basically, car charger/FM transmitters, cases, better earphones

I haven't subscribed to any podcasts, but It has crossed my mind.

I haven't hooked it up to my HT, but my wife has mentioned it, and I really have no idea how to plug it in, I assume by the time I upgrade my receiver in a year or so, that it'll almost be a standard feature.

 

[djoxygen]

Do you own an iPod, if so what kind?
