Ipod or MP3?

I'm not sure if I want a small Ipod or mp3... Does anybody know what would last longer? And I heard that an mp3 can only download mp3 files but an Ipod can download mp3 and wma files. Is this true? And can I use Limewire to download songs to use in my music player? And is the Shuffle the Ipod without a screen or with? And whats a Nano? Please help me?

Ipod or MP3?
I would recommend an iPod Nano. (I'll talk about the different iPods in a sec, but bear with me here :P).





Apple has done a great job of really streamlining the whole process between buying music (if you wanted to buy it), getting music into your iTunes Library, and then syncing all of that seamlessly with the iPod. It's really a great and easy way for people to listen to their music.





I'm not sure whether or not iTunes (the software on your computer that the iPod interacts with) supports wma files. If I recall, I've heard some people say that some files do work, while others just don't.





You can use Limewire to download music and Limewire has very good support for transferring that music into iTunes automatically. Just remember, most of the songs you would download from Limewire would be illegal *wink wink*.





Comparing the different iPods, the shuffle is not really that great of an option. It doesn't have a screen so you wouldn't be able to choose what song you want to listen to, which I wouldn't be able to put up with. I've heard that some people love their shuffles though, and of course I've never tried one, so who knows, maybe I would actually like the thing. The nano's are more like the younger siblings of the full size iPods. It's smaller and lighter, with a smaller screen, and less storage space. But they're cheaper! The nano's do everything the current full size iPods do except for video playback.





I would say that overall, you would be much more satisfied with an iPod Nano over an mp3 player.





I hope I could be of some help!
