Highs And Lows Of A Rather Easy-Going Day

Jan 20, 2006 22:56

Today had a few significant highs, and a few significant lows. The highs included sounding awesome at the mini-tour today with the marching band; the lows included feeling lousy at rehearsal today and dissatisfied with my performing. Nonetheless, it's proved positive overall.

All the awesome elements of today included:

damn 30 gigs is not enough!
my itunes has 26.2 gb of music.
plus i have almost 1 gig of pictures...
...plus videos? yeah i'll need the... uh, do they still make the 60?!

kakkui_1037 January 21 2006, 22:33:08 UTC

yeah the 60gb ones are $399

pianodude34 January 26 2006, 07:39:42 UTC

That they are.

Wow! How many songs is that, Chelsea?

Pictures is what will make my 30/60 GB--whichever I choose--go down in space, heh. Since 10/2005, I've taken 10+ GB of pictures on my digital camera, which is a whole ton. I don't think I'll be putting the original, 2-3 MB (each picture) files on there because they'd take too long to load.

Do you have the new iPod, or the 4/5G?

And yes, of course they still make the 60, lol, it's on their site.

Let's see... what else: as for videos, yeah, those will take some space, but I may not be putting any on there if you can only purchase them.

Lastly, the music that I like only takes 4-5 GB. I will never need to carry more than that amount with me at a given time, since I only like about 1000 different rock/alt. songs, so the 30 GB will be great because that leaves 20-25 GB for pictures/videos, which is perfect. Plus: documents, etc. for backing my files up. The 30 GB is also smaller; only 4.8 oz. (That's really light... haha.) I'm getting the black one, too :D.

Archos are so much better! I'm saving for an AV500. Plus, I work at the Sharper Image and get them at 30% off.

Thanks for the idea! I looked at the site and Archos' products are indeed awesome, but as cool as a 4" screen is, I honestly don't want to carry around an 11-oz. mp3 player (the 100 GB one). The iPod 60 GB is only 5.5 oz., and it plays videos/shows pictures, which is what I want. I like the durability and the sleekness of the iPod. Even if I get the 30 GB one, it's only 4.8 oz., and size is definitely something I'm watching out for, because I am going to be bringing this player everywhere.

Hey, I started watching "High School Musical" too! I got really distracted though and didn't really pay much attention. :( I think I'll see it tonight.

pianodude34 January 21 2006, 22:45:53 UTC

You should, I really liked it. Efron and Tisdale are awesome in it.

andilitebandit January 21 2006, 16:02:49 UTC

170 pics? Dang, heh. I called in for my phone, but I have to call in today. I think my phone might be in a coma for a while longer. :(

pianodude34 January 21 2006, 22:52:04 UTC

Yep, that's a lot of pictures, eh!
Aww, so no texting to me?

teh_ronny January 21 2006, 18:03:03 UTC

I don't really like iPod Video's. :\

pianodude34 January 21 2006, 22:45:35 UTC

How come?

teh_ronny January 22 2006, 00:20:51 UTC

My friend Kimberly has one...overall it's a solid player, but the battery life during video playback is just inexcusable. Basically, the iPod needs to stick to music, and work on its video playback.

pianodude34 January 22 2006, 18:09:28 UTC

Inexcusable, gotcha. I was using an iPod for a couple hours yesterday and in that short time going from all the different menus, games, featres, songs and stuff, it went down to 2/3 battery. *sigh* the battery life isn't AS BAD as it used to be, but it's definitely not as good as most would like.
