I have 2,500 songs on my computer right now. That's roughly 11.5 gigabytes worth of music.

I have roughly 400 CDs in my collection. If the track listing averaged 10 songs per CD, that would equal 4,000 songs. However, I have a feeling the song count is higher then that.

I need a 40gigabyte player.

I have the money to buy a 40gig Ipod, but I think I'm going to wait a bit. The price of the technology should drop eventually, and the Ipod is going to see some competition. I think, once other companies like Sony get better products on the market, we will see some price battles, and ultimately, price drops.

I do want a portable player though. My collection is to big for CDs or MP3CDs.

Ditto.
No real competition for the iPod, so I'll wait till it gets some.
I just bought a CD player that plays MP3s. Cost me €30.... but the anti-shock doesn't work properly (you're not supposed to hear ANY distuption when you tap it, right?), so I'm probably getting my money back.

its going to take some very very hard work for anyone to compete with the ipod. the ipod is the only one really with all the accesories and addons you can buy for it. i mean they're coming out with everything you can connect the ipod to.

When dealers start making cars with integrated support for your product. your much more then a step above the rest.

I'm fairly certain that the next time I go to Best Buy I'm going to buy a 20gig iPod.

Null mentioned something about the iPod having new programs to add to it...are those programs you can download? If so, what's a link to a site that provides them, I'd like to read about them.

Either way, the price should drop. I think they can produce those iPods for €75 each.

I don't listen too enough music or too often to warrant needing an iPod.
