OT: What comes up randomly on my iPod
 

yep, totally bored at work, and I'm just an hour into my shift (only 9 and a half hours left).

I find it amazing that with over 1200 songs on there currently (in the process of rebuilding my music collection after accidentally wiping it out) I managed to get 2 Cold songs from the same album in my random mix of 20.

Ah oh well!
~tk

tk, I get that a lot too. I think it has to do with if you shuffle by album or by song, but admittedly, i've only got about 150 songs (plus four audiobooks) on my iPod currently.

Don't ever leave your IPod anywhere that I might have access to it. You may never see it again.

DVH....please watch this. It's f'ing hilarious.


For all the Hardcore kids....

Hey tk, how you do like that N.E.R.D album? It's taken me a while to get used to.

Carbon Leaf, fantastic. :)

I just got an iPod Thursday -- I had a bunch of gift certificates from my boss that just about covered the cost :). I have about half my music collection done so far -- converting CDs takes is surprisingly slow. My music was on my laptop and my desktop, so I spent this morning meshing the two together. It's actually updating all my additions and corrections right now.

What I have learned from my iPod's shuffle mode is that were I to post my random play list, you would all conclude that I'm the token girl pop power ballad guy, with the occassional street cred thrown in to confuse people.

I want one :(

Doesn't even have to be an Ipod. I will take a cheaper, slightly smaller MP3 player....

ultimately, I got to a point where I just decided it was easier to download the thing instead of ripping it from CD.

I've found that after listening to it a few times, it's grown on me. It definitely wasn't what I expected at first, though now I like it. Then again, these days I mostly just put the iPod onto random repeat, so I listen to whatever comes up ;) Or podcasts. I've got a few of those I download and listen to (2-3 times a week usually).

~tk

The biggest thing I had to come to grips with on my iPod - since I use someone else's computer to transfer music (my laptop can't run XP) - was figuring out how to set it so that if I deleted the music off of the iTunes laptop's HDD, the iPod wouldn't say "oh, hey, the music's not on the PC anymore, let's take it off of the iPod, too!"

Once I got that squared away, it's been gravy.

I've checked these boards for awhile now, and I'm not really sure while I waited until now to make my first post, but anyways here goes....

1. Violent Femmes - Jesus Walking on the Water
2. AFI - This Secret Ninja
3. Knife in the Water - Village Fireworks
4. The Faint - Defy the Ailments
5. Bob Marley - Three Little Birds
6. TV on the Radio - Staring at the Sun
7. Iggy Pop - Nightclubbing
8. CCR - Have You Ever Seen the Rain?
9. Ugly Casanova - Diamonds on the Face of Evil
10. David Bowie - Heroes
11. Modest Mouse - Life Like Weeds
12. Bright Eyes - The Calendar Hung Itself...
13. The Beatles - Julia
14. Pixies - Break My Body
15. Songs: Ohia - Just Be Simple
16. Jimi Hendrix - Highway Chile
17. Modest Mouse - Perfect Desguise
18. The Beatles - Glass Onion
19. Tom Petty - You Got Lucky
20. Gang Starr - Work

Since I dont have an iPod either, here's my next twenty on my winamp playlist.

1. Eminem - 8 Mile Road
2. Kanye West - Through The Wire
3. Akon - Locked Up
4. Big Tymers - Still Fly

This is why I've switched to Anapod Explorer.
I got really annoyed when I had all my music on it at one point and after doing a firmware update, all the defaults resetting and it trying to automatically sync with iTunes (which was empty because I don't have that much room on my computer).

~tk

Not sure if I'm gonna need a firmware update anytime soon, but if I do, I'll keep that in mind.
