I've found the each of the trips I take for work over the last 12 months or so cost me some money, about $10 to $20 each. I've been traveling for work for over three years now but it has only been the last year that I spend this $10 to $20. It was last May that I got my iPod. I got Pretty Bird her's the previous November for her birthday and we both loved it. The trips cost me this before I leave, usually the night before. I spend this money at iTunes picking up some new songs or albums (yes Mark you can call them albums). I usually start out just wanting to shake things up and create some new playlists and I end up picking up some new music. It is so easy and allows me to get a nice variety to listen to on the next day's flight. Neither of us purchased much music past high school or college, hell I was just a radio guy from 1997 until last year. We probably bought maybe 20 albums between '97 and last year. So the 200 album/2500 song collection we had was mainly from our high school/college years. Since she got her iPod we've probably added another 20 albums or so. It was fun to 'rediscover' buying music again.
If you don't have an iPod yet, well what are you waiting for?

I saw the sign, and it opened up my eyes...
My gf gave me a $150 gift certificate for the Apple Store, but I haven't gotten the iPod yet. I'm just not that big of a music fan. Now my portable XM radio is a god-send. I haven't listened to terestial radio in months!

As for iPods, I have yet to be in a situaiton where I would want music that a cd/mp3 player didn't get the job done, and the cost of an iPod is far more than I'd spend on burning CDs in two years. I completely understand why people love them but they're just not for me.
And I can't stand Apple almost as much as I can't stand Microsoft. Just different reasons.
You can't stand Apple or Microsoft both? Man, you're totally screwed.
