Mac users: iTunes Music Store?

Post by Geo »

For all you Mac guys out there (I know there are a few ) I'm curious as to who else has used or uses the iTunes music store.I've nicknamed it iCrack, I had to set a monthly budget for myself. Bought a couple albums, and a LOT of singles. I frequently just browse around and look for songs to get. It's amazingly addictive, so easy to use, so easy to find stuff, it's the perfect way to buy music. At least, that's my opinion

(*Drool*)I don't know how I ever lived without it. I'll add one more thing to your list of reasons it's great. The quality of the files is great for compressed music.Oh and I love the nickname. It fits!

Holy mother of god. I think I've spent $250 on iTunes music store in the last 2 - 3 months. It got insane right after I got my 15 gb iPod. "oh look, that song only took up 1/3500th of the availible space, I think I'll download another its only .99¢" After an hour of that, I need to put in some overtime.iCrack indeed.

I'm waiting for the 4th Gen before I get a new one, although I MIGHT have to spring for one soon because my current one is in a sad state from being dropped, opened, banged around and now suffers battery problems

If so, how? I have read some reviews of the iTrip FM broadcaster. Seems to be ok. Better than most of its competition anyway.Later

No, I do not indeed use my iPod in my vibe.Yet.I am replacing the stereo just for this very fucntion. I also plan on using my Laptop in my Vibe as well because it holds a bit more music and I can probably load some sort of map software on it. I believe that if I get a new cell phone, I can actually use my cell phone as a means to get online with my laptop as well.Just need that AUX IN jack. The Element has one, why can't we get that? I'm SURE Toyota wants to be better than Honda, afterall

I have also thought about a stereo upgrade. The AUX IN jack would be sweet. I know the Vibe has the AC power, but I don't think my G4 tower would work well. No place to set the monitor! In a year or two, I would like to buy a 12" Powerbook and retire my current box.Dreams are made to be charged!

The delema I face now is this: 12" Powerbook or Supercharger. I know the Powerbook is A LOT less than the SC, but if I spend the $1600-$2000 on it there is no way I can afford the SC.Like I said, dreams are made to be charged!
