For music lovers on the go, the standard player for years was some version of a hand held or belt loop attached device that played cassette tapes or compact discs. Rolling through double-A batteries, skipping as you jog, and 'eating the tape' episodes were common issues that people just grinned though, since there weren't any other options available. Since those grim and distant days, Apple computers have released the gold standard of music players, the iPod. Reading compressed audio files like .mp3 and .m4a, the iPod stores music digitally, organizes it, and plays it back from its small, hand-held display. Using a rechargeable battery, the ability to read and store music directly from a personal computer, as well as the bonus of being platform neutral (accepts PCs and Macs) makes the iPod the perfect way to listen to your music on the go.

In this free video clip series, our expert will explain the basic pieces of information you need to know before purchasing an iPod, tips for getting started with your new media player, as well as methods to utilize the iPod's extra features, file type recognition and unique menu browser, the click wheel. See for yourself how simple the iPod is to use and get inspired to shed that dated disc player!
