I haven't purchased an iPod yet, but I have started using iTunes. I've been using it to listen to music at work and I love it for two reasons: (1) it doesn't pester me about upgrading to a full version when I open and close it; and (2) it uses crossfade playback between songs (ie, it fades the last song out while fading the next song in, like a radio station). I've loaded close to a 1000 songs on my computer, so now I just open iTunes, hit the shuffle button, and randomly listen to all my favorite bands. Love it! Oddly enough, it appears that iPods don't use crossfade playback between songs. That's a bummer because I really like that feature. The Rio Karma does, but some owners have experienced hard drive problems or even failure after a few months of use. I'm not sure which one I'll get, if either, but I definitely want to get something I can hook up in my car. The Karma is tempting because of price and its little $28 FM Transmitter. I suppose odds are in my favor that I'll buy a unit that will work just fine, right?
