Re: Ipod is piece of crap

Well... my 20gig Ipod crapped out today. It is 22 months old, and rarely used.

And I do mean RARELY used. I take it on trips when I travel, but find no use for it around the house or shop.

It will not reset, and will not reinitialize. Not surprised, though, seeing how it sounds like the HD went out. You can hear a LOT of noise coming from the unit when you power it on. (sounds like somebody running gravel through a food processor)


I called Apple "customer care" and explained the problem to them. The lady said, "At this point, we recommend that you just purchase a new unit."

She said they could fix it, but it would cost more than a new one. She did mention that if I take it to an authorized retailer, I could get 10% off of a new one when I turn in the bad one.

Well, I may buy a new MP3 player, but it sure as hell won't be an Ipod.



Meanwhile, this suckers coming apart!!
