Ever since they appeared, I've seen numerous amounts of people listening to music. Most of them have iPods. I would like to know which type of iPod would the majority of EDM listeners prefer.
Keep the following assumptions in mind before voting:
- Price: Whether it's too expensive (no shit) and worth it (definitely

- Colour: Applies more to options like nano iPods nowadays or Black/White Video iPods according to your choice. (try not to base your choice of colour due to a certain political reason)
- Style: iPods are known to their simplicity. For me, it is one thing I look for. This might also interfere with the colour.
- Music: The amount of music you have on your PC or the CDs you have.
- Size: How big your pockets are or how much weight of music you want to have on you.
- Location: Some sizes or colors are no longer supplied and some are not yet supplied by the Apple Inc. to Lebanon for instance. And in other countries prices differ.
- Depreciation: We all know that some electronics decrease their prices due to a certain condition. For instance my $425 iPod that I bought in December 2006 has depreciated into $380. That is $45 difference but, is it worth the time?
- Competition: I’m 100000% sure that there are a lot of firms competing against Apple’s iPod because it is a successful product. They tend to compete against it is by decreasing prices, making promotions, more advertisement, etc.
- Specialization: Each iPod has its own preferences and options. For instance, watching movies, video clips and TV shows with the Video iPod & Sport Kit for workouts in the collaboration of Nike with Apple with the iPod nano.
Do not limit your assumptions just on these aspects you can also add assumptions from your own or get more info from:
Contacting the Local dealer (Lebanon, ABC Ashrafieh, “The Mac Shop” 00961 1 218 064)
Or visiting the website http://www.apple.com/itunes/
*I got the info from the official dealer of Apple in Lebanon, ABC Ashrafieh "The Mac Shop". If you can find for example a 60GB iPod in other stores doesn't mean that it is still supplied.
After taking into consideration all these assumptions you may now vote. For this survey to be worthy, PLEASE state the reason why you WOULD make your decision.
