Over the last few years the way music is delivered and listened to has changed immeasurably. Old walkmans and mini disc players have all been made obsolete by the wonderfully simple i-Pod.

Although there are now many different types of i-pod, from the tiny i-pod nano through to the comparatively huge ipod classic with up to 120 gigabytes of memory, they all work with same basic functionality that has made them world-wide favourites.

Organising your music has never been simpler, uploading it to your Ipod is a breeze and the players themselves are so intuitive that operating them is child’s play. The Ipod is here to stay, and doesn’t look like being equalled or surpassed at any time in the near future. The traditional portable music giants Sony have so far failed to make a product to rival the Ipod, and it seems like all other devices are cumbersome to use by comparison.

The ability to watch a feature film on your Ipod on a flight would have been the stuff of science fiction only a few years ago. Today you can easily download your favourite programs, films etc and watch them on the move. What is truly amazing is the mighty battery life that is the norm for Ipods, 14+ hours play back time is normal, so you will never run out of juice.

The size options of Ipods mean that you have an ipod to fit your lifestyle, for example you could have an Ipod shuffle or Nano to carry with you if you are training or at the gym. Alternatively, you could go for something bigger and with more memory, like a 120 Gb Classic which will store 40,000 songs. The Ipod Touch, is great for Gaming, wireless Internet connection, watching video etc, available in 16 Gb or 32 Gb. The Iphone is an 8 Gb phone which is a class leader in performance as well as function and design.

There is an i-pod for everyone as they come in a wide range of colours and styles and there are also docking stations available that allow you to play to music on your ipod out loud. Ipods give everyone the freedom to carry their entire music collection around with them, while leaving their PC and CD collection at home.
