The ipod is simply ridiculous if compared to the Walkman. I received as gift an ipod nano 7 gen cause i lost my beloved Sony Walkman S series…. Given all the flaws in the iPod, I sure wish Diamond was still around today. Diamond is no longer in business, but they were the pioneers that took the arrows from the recording industry so we can now enjoy listening to our iPods today. Furthermore, Diamond did not have the right to make such a copyright infringing device like the Diamond Rio. RIAA argued that we did not have the right to repackage our CD music to play on an MP3 player. RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) sued my friends at Diamond.
The Diamond Rio was destined to replace the venerable Sony Walkman. They were flying off the shelves as music enthusiasts grabbed up the Diamond Rio to bring portability to their music collections. Even way back then, it was a run away success. Later, they introduced in the late 90’s, the industries first MP3 player, the Diamond Rio. I quickly became friends with the CEO and Director of Marketing. When I began working at Gateway in 1991, our #1 graphics card was made by a company called Diamond Graphics. Although we like to believe that Apple invented the MP3 player, it is simply not true. Here is the last and final reason why I hate my iPod. Like I said in the beginning, I just want to drag and drop songs onto my iPod. 18 seconds just seems like an eternity on my computer. It takes 2 seconds to load Microsoft Excel, and 4 seconds to bring up Google Chrome including the first web page.

I have a smoking fast computer running a Windows 7 and iTunes takes 18 seconds to bring up on my super fast Sony. I just checked from their web site and it is 92.3 MB. But all I wanted was a nice shiny new bike.

Yes, it can get you from point A to point B, plus it can also move around a lot of dirt. For me, using iTunes is like getting a bull dozer for Christmas rather than a bicycle. And I don’t want iTunes playing mw WAV files. I don’t want to listen to music on my computer. All I want to do is to drag and drop music.
All I want to do is to drag and drop music onto my iPod. I am not nor have I ever been a fan of iTunes. During this episode, going through my mind is Why? Higher bit rates are good for Apple. Back to the drawing board, and finally, after about two hours, I was able to listen to my music (legally). I think it was at 228kbps and I changed it to 198kbps. Awesome, so I start throwing away bits of music so it will play on my iPod. Started googling around I found a public domain bit rate changer. Great, but now what do I do? I don’t think that Windows nor the Mac have a utility that reduces the bit rate of an MP3 file. He figured it out, the bit rate was too high and apparently Apple did not like it. After fussing with it for an hour, I called a tech friend of mine, Augusto. It won’t tell me why but it won’t let me listen to my music.

I download some more music (legally), and no problem.
Earlier this year, I downloaded some music (legally BTW), and then the natural next step is to move it to the iPod.
