• iPod Classic or iPod touch?
    13 replies, posted
Alright, I'm having a bit of a hard time choosing - I'd like to listen to music more often, so I have the choice between the 160gb iPod Classic or the slightly more expensive 32gb iPod touch. I don't use many apps, and I love to listen to the radio a lot. Sound quality also means a bit to me, and videos once in a while can be nice. I'm leaning a bit towards the Classic, but I'm uncertain. So, convince me to buy one of them.
iPod touch: - FaceTime - Better screen for movies - Intergrated Speaker - WiFi - Internet Browsing - Well yeah... Apps - iPod touch has the radio components inside, but apple has done nothing with them.

I've also heard rumors of better sound quality with the iPod classic, it's also cheaper with more space and I like the look of it better. But the touch has all of the things above. I guess I'll go for the 32gb touch, even though I don't use apps and such much.

Don't think you can just ignore those, you will get hooked :v: But all rumours about sound quality are bullshit. They are digital files and are delivered at the same frequencies as other ipods.
If you actually listen to music and have a lot of it in lossless quality or whatever, Classic, if anything else, Touch.
I would go with the Touch. There are some good reasons to get the the Classic. It's nice if you have a large library and can just put it all on one iPod. Also it's nice having hard controls for when you're driving or running.
You said you care about sound quality, and good quality CD rips (320kb/s and up) will eat up that 32GB in no time. I have a classic and it gives me adequate space for my 10,000+ song library. As well as a few TV series :)
8 gig is 60 albums 32 would be about 240 I see no issue with that. Store all albums on your computer and choose what you have. Simple.
how much music do you have 160g is a shitload, i've got like three days of solid music at 320/v0 kbps and it's all on my 16 gig ipod. if i compressed it down to 128 kbps aac it would be even less regardless of how cool or shitty an ipod touch is, the choice is pretty big considering all you can do on a classic is listen to music and an ipod touch at the very least can surf the internet
I got the 64GB touch because it was on sale, quite satisfied. :v:

On my old ipod I had 600 songs with about 40 artists. :v:
