When my parents bought me my first iPod for my 17th birthday, that shit was the cutting god damn edge. Forty gigabytes (god damn) of music, $400. Two years later, I got a 30gb video, $250.
Apple just released the newest iPods, and in the batch is the new and improved (how could it be new if it's something else being improved?) iPod Classic. One-hundred sixty gigabytes of music, videos, and photos, $350. They also released some other shit that's irrelevant to me such as the iPod Touch, which is essentially an iPhone without the phone capabilities. Fuck that, especially since the shit only holds 16gbs at most. Then they dropped the price of the 8gb iPhone by 200 bucks reeeeeeeeal fucking shortly after selling that shit for 600 bucks. I guess I can't really keep up with technology. It's funny, because... wait
160 gbs??
That's the fucking hard drive on my laptop! Jesus fucking Christ that's crazy shit... Technology's fucking crazy! What does 2009 hold for us? The terrabyte iPod. Just fucking say it, G... the terrabyte iPod. I can FEEL it. Now that I think of it, aside from SG video podcasts and the occasional music video I've converted to MP4, I never even use the video capabilities of my iPod. But I could hold tons of shit on a 160gb iPod classic. But those shits erase themselves whenever they feel like it, so what good would that do me? I don't think I'll get an iPod for.... 10 years. When the XBox 1440/Playstation 5/Nintendo Telekinetis/iPod Micro comes out, I'll get that. For now I'll just fill up my two iPods (because filling up an iPod DOES take a lot of time if you don't pirate tunes) and pretend I don't want an iPhone.
