text: I bought an iPod.  It froze, so apple warranteed it.  Unfortunately, that one froze, as well.  It would just stop playing although the screen looked like it was playing.  Usually, if you let the power run out (which it will because it won't let you turn it off), when you recharge it, it works again.  Overall, I was unsatisfied with my purchase.  \n\nIf you want a good mp3 player, I would recommend the creative zen.  I have one, and it works tons better.  Even programming it is easier.
