Gauging Craziness: Why I own an iPod Classic

• code_duck 15y ago
  It seems that the optimal solution would be to obtain a modern device with removable media. I wish Apple hadn't decided to make storage size part of their pricing model, and offered a card slot. My Motorola Droid phone has a micro SD slot, with a max size of 64 GB. It would be a lot more convenient to carry a phone and 6 memory cards than a phone and an iPod Classic.

    That's a matter of opinion though, I would much rather take the phone and iPod Classic because I do not wish to deal with the memory cards, especially since most Android phones require you to remove the battery to switch cards.

    Sansa Clip+ also uses micro SD cards. That being said I used to have most of my music around with me all the time, but there was no point in that. It just degraded into this: http://i.imgur.com/p8Egi.png http://i.imgur.com/p8Egi.png I bought a Clip and I just load up music now and then that I am currently listening to a lot.

  I used to be in a similar boat, with a bit under 300GB of music, until the great music-cull of 2009, when I deleted the whole lot and started from scratch. These days I keep it under about 6GB - if something new can't fit on my phone, I delete albums until it does. This has been pretty tough at times, but it has the advantage that I don't have anything in my library that I don't absolutely love :)
