iPod is Worthless!

This is a bit of a rant, but I just wanted to vent in regards to all of the holiday iPod stuff I have been seeing lately. Don’t be fooled by their savvy marketing people, Apple and their demon seed known as iPod will tear your holiday dreams asunder within four (two in my case) short lived years. So let’s break down the economics of that:

New iPod: $350
Accessories: at least $100 (carrying case, car adapter, nicer earbuds, etc.)
Total: $450
Total/year: about $110

I think I’ll go out and buy a cheapy mp3 player each year and then at the end of the year, SMASH IT! That will give me far more satisfaction than plunking down another $450 to replace my current iPod which died after two years.

Get some quality control Apple!
