Which is better a ipod or a MP3 player? im buying one what do you think?

an ipod is a type of an mp3 player

It really depends. If you just want to listen to your music and never listen to the radio, then you should get an ipod. But if you're like me and are always listening to the radio, then get an mp3 player with fm tuner on it.

anything besides ipod....people only like it for looks and how you can personolize it. because of this its automatically the best. they dont do anything new...just improve on old things...

i think ipod is way better than an MP3 player. an ipod has a lot of different stuff: games, different colors n accessories, different types of ipods (video, nano, mini, touch etc...) and other cool stuff too. ive never had an MP3 player so i dont know what its like. i have an ipod though- and i love it!

well it depends on which mp3 player you buy. zunes are somewhat better than ipods. ipods are pretty good. but there are some mp3 players that are better than others. i would say get a zune.

Like they said, iPod is mp3. But yeah, get something else besides the iPod. They're a pain - really. And they cost too much. I have an iPod, but the only way I even got one was because my brother gave it to me. And I hate it so much. But I'm stuck with it for a little while longer - that's why I still use it. I was actually thinking about going back to using portable CD players... lol.

ipod is better because itunes has alot more stuff on it like music,movies,music videos,podcasts,tv shows,pretty much every band known to man is on there. and for the ipod it is better quality than most mp3's the ipod is durable all metal frame (new ones) the quality of the sound is better and there are different variety's of ipod's to choose from: there is the ipod nano ( now it can play videos), ipod classic (same thing as the ipod video),ipod itouch ( has a touch screen, plays music, and videos,internet access with the latest flash player, and more.) the iphone which is the same thing as the ipod itouch but the iphone has a phone built in it. and last but not least the ipod shuffle( this 1 is better for someone who doesnt know many bands and it has no screen.) so you decide which one you want or if you choose to go a different route and go with the mp3 i would recommend a mp3 by brand name. here are couple of good mp3's name brands sandisk, creative zen but DONT go with the microsoft zune. the zune has nothing on its marketplace. it maybe has 5000 songs and 20 music videos and thats it. so i would go with the ipod more choices and i think you will enjoy it more. hope this helped =^)
