What's the difference between an Ipod and Mp3 player?

duct_tape · 06:40 PM

the ipod can hold alot more songs than the mp3 player. the ipod mini holds about a thousand and the reg ipod holds about 5000. mp3 players hold around 30-40 songs. that's pretty much the difference

That's kind of an awkward question. The iPod is an mp3 player.

"mp3 player" is a very broad category including many different types of players with capacities ranging from small to really huge.

u kno wat he means though

No........that's not what he means..........a flash player is small.........not necessarily an mp3 player. Ipod is really over-rated in my opinion. I'd either go with Creative or maybe a Dell DJ.

yeh, that is what he means. he wants to know what difference is between a ipod. (Which is called a ipod, not mp3 player,) and a mp3 player ( which in the stores they call it a mp3 player) is.

Dude, an ipod is an mp3 player, and there is NO difference between an ipod and any other mp3 player, except ipod is more money and plays crappy apple acc format.

1) learn to use google and do research like "Best MP3 player" and you will find comparisons
2) when you edit a post, dont give the reason, its lame.

Example

Ipod has a hard drive to store mp3s in the player.

An mp3/cd player uses CD-R's to store music. You can get 200 songs on a 700 meg disc. (depends on quality, encoding..ect)

Some mp3 players are flash based and can store as much as the size of the flash memory.

Best value is a cd/mp3 player. Eventually pocket pc or palm PDA devices will have a hard drive and become a better multimedia player.

It is estimated you need 97 TB of space to record every living moment for 80 years. Someday 100 TB storage devices will be available.
