(Couldn't think of where to dump this topic... here seems as good a place as any)
Now slimmer (and only 158g), bigger storage, and cheaper. Amazing, going to have to replace my old 5 giger with a tasty, teeny 15 GB monster.
Seriously, not a single portable music device can now come anywhere near the amazing iPod. I've always been a huge fan of them (as is anyone who has ever used one/has any sense), but now... whole new ball game. Gimme gimme gimme.

Ah, thanks. It's just I'm a bit apprehensive about installing it, due to Windows 98SE an' all.

There's a "2" in there that should be an "s", god knows how I managed that!

Pair of Newmark TT-16502 and a Newmark mixer, not sure what sort and it's all the way over in my bedroom... it's not a great one. Then this is all linked up to an old PA system my brother gave me which I really know nothing about. Pretty cool though, used to have it hooked up to my hi-fi and that went loud. PA system goes L-O-U-D.

Hmmm... it seems as if Musicmatch is the right way to go for me. Ephpod doesn't 'rip' CD's,m which is no good at all.
It's either Ephpod + Ripping software
or Musicmatch
What would be the best idea, and is Musicmatch really that bad?

Me has 2 Stanton STR8-60s and an SMX211 hooked up to a pair of babies (Newmark M1s)

Oh right.
Is Ephpod easy to use? I don't want to pay for Xplay (already need to buy a Firewire port- or a USB 2.0 card) and Ephpod seems like the easiest choice.
Then again, I could just use MusicMatch- as it does work with Windows 98.

Didn't like Ephpod too much to be honest and was given an XPlay seriel for nowt as I'd helped in Beta testing. Didn't know I'd helped in beta testing like, but they e-mailed me a seriel and a link to download the full product just before the retail launch so I wasn't going to argue.
Yeah, I have windows 98SE. There was a firewire patch you can download from microsoft.com/downlaods, which I'll have to get.
Also, don't you have to pay for Xplay? EphPod is free!

I use XPlay with a standard Mac version. Works pretty well - used it on Win 98SE for a while which only has partial Firewire support so was annoyed with slow speeds. Got a new laptop with XP on it and now things zoom around nicely :)

Yeah, if you buy an American 15Gb one for $400, you're paying less than a English 10Gb.
I love the pound.
