Very convenient for that, but at home I spin vinyl.

I do actually prefer the sounds of vinyl. She asked me what I wanted and I told her either a record player or an ipod. But I'm glad she went with the ipod cause I will probably throw down the cash eventually for a record player; I probably wouldn't have spent a lot of money on an ipod. But I'm extremely glad to be getting one.

I bought an iPod classic 80GB, and it works pretty well. (there are a few minor bugs, like some of the album art won't display properly...)
the quality's nice. the only real problem i have with it is how easily it's scratched on the back! and there aren't any retail stores that sell cases yet

don't do it. hold out until those bastards finally make it operate on AAA batteries...
