Ipod = DEAD!, Stupid *expletive* Options

[IdlersDream]

Well, last night I was listening to my iPod and the stupid thing started skipping and died completely and I've tried everything and it just doesn't even come on at all.. And this thing is too old now and doesn't owe me anything...
Anyways, I want to know what a good iPod is that isn't too much money {nothing over 250$ atleast...} and I don't really want a touch one and I don't want one that can't hold more than 3,000 songs...

So, I just want some of your opinions, especially people who listen to music a lot, not just people that have like 40 songs on their iPod...

I think all of that should make sense haha.. xp

Well... how 'dead' are we talking? Did you see the little "dead ipod" icon? Or did it just stop responding completely? If it's the latter, give it a few hours/days and there's a chance it'll come back to you - especially if it's an older model. If it's the former, then... yeah... It's pretty much time to start looking for a new one. Seeing as I still use an older model myself, I can't really recommend any new ones, but if less space is what you're looking for, Chicken's suggestion of an ipod nano is probably the way to go.

(Though, personally, I swear my ipod mini must be sentient and absolutely love me because no matter how many times it dies or gets the "dead ipod" icon, it comes back to me. It's a reliable little thing. :'D)
