Oh jeez! I'm not about to list all the artists on my iPod. But the main groups I have are Creedence Clearwater Revival, John Fogerty, Smash Mouth, E-Type, and a ton of classic rock groups. Plus a few contacts. I still have about 3 gigs left which I'm in no hurry to fill up!

GREAT call on that list, RowerCPU. It's awesome. Radiohead is the greatest band ever. But you left out Bowie, The Band, and the Stones.

 

[Rower_CPU]

Yeah..I've got some Stones and Bowie floating around elsewhere right now...

I've been trying to keep MiPod legal, so those are just the ones off of CDs I actually own...

Awesome! Anyone from Berkeley that's a fan of CCR is a friend of mine.

Hello Friend

Its strange how this board brings people together.... keep on rocking my friend

Maybe we'll meet down on the corner... up around the bend.... and become the best of friends and then..... or not... but there will always be those good times that we can share here at Macrumors...

Pumpkins man!!!! Fav song: In My Body

 

[King Cobra]

If you check out the Macs and Music thread, you will see the names of 10 of the songs. My favorite again is Here to Stay. I also have some others, and even a few comedy episodes from the show Whose Line Is It Anyway? Both the Drew Carey and Clive Anderson version.

That makes only 28 mp3s. So I guess I have some room to spare.

I have already showed the iPod to at least two people at where I go to class. They want one bad!

Any time is a great time for iPod.

I have to disagree, they are a bunch of creeps

they are so small but the sound that comes out of it is very loud
I was tempted to ad one to my imac
but I just don't have the cash

You have something personal against them?

This is about music...not people's personal lives...

You didn't....did you???

 

[blackpeter]

No... not really. But I've got it on iPod so that I can hook up my friends. I'm sick of them not being able to read all my Office docs.

 

[me hate windows]

I know this doesn't really go with the topic, but I didn't want to start another thread. Is there any way to get a 5gig iPod for $300 U.S.? I converted someone who will get an iBook soon, but he also wants an iPod. He is in college and I have seen education discounts from some sites. I don't remember them anymore since I already have an iPod, and I can't seem to find anything. The max that he will pay for an iPod is $325. I know that is
crazy, but I saw those prices.
And don't mention the Apple Store or MacMall and the stuff like that, I already checked, unless you find it cheap and I didn't

Thanks

 

[buffsldr]

369...thats what is costs on the apple stores education site

Have you heard Ben Folds' new album? Its pretty sweet.

By the way, if any of you are looking for a good way to copy all of your artist names from iTunes, (and this only works if you have ripped most of your music yourself or organize it into artist folders).

Just go to your iTunes music folder in the finder, select all of the folders and then copy (either Command-C or from the edit menu). Then open TextEdit and paste (either Command-P or from the Edit menu). Done. And if you use list or column view when copying, you get the benifit of sorting.

I hope more people post their artists. Its cool to see what Mac-heads are listening to. Rower_CPU and I seem to have similar tastes. Good show, my man.

You've definitely got some good stuff there, man. I've been meaning to get some Ben Folds Five for awhile now...maybe this'll prompt me to go out and buy some...
