Why buy an iPod nano over an iPod

When it comes to personal MP3 players, there is none more well-known than the numerous versions of the Apple iPod. With their little white headphones, large storage capacity, and the ability to download software and purchase songs and then load them onto your iPod, there's no wonder the Apple iPod has taken the world by storm.

There are a number of different versions of the iPod. From a basic model to one that will play movies and music videos from a small screen, there is certainly something for everyone. Two of the more popular versions of the iPod are the iPod Nano and the iPod.

Why buy an iPod nano over an iPod?
If you're choosing between the iPod nano or the iPod, the iPod nano is a solid choice. It comes with a number of exciting features. The following are just a few reasons why you should buy an iPod Nano over an iPod:
 Sturdy. Many consider the iPod Nano to be nearly indestructible since their memory is flash-based, meaning there are no moving parts inside. So, you can drop it without having to worry about knocking something off-balance, and you never have to deal with songs that skip.
 Sleek design. The iPod Nano is much smaller and slimmer than the iPod, which is an attractive feature for many people. You can slip it into your pocket, clip it on the front of your shirt, or put it in your purse. While still small, the iPod is bulkier than the nano, making it more difficult to exercise or travel lightly with.
 Options. The iPod nano comes in a number of different varieties depending on taste and music needs. For example, you can get it in 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB models, with the 8GB holding up to 2,000 songs. If you don't anticipate storing that much music, you can spend less money and do just fine with a 2 or 4GB model. In addition, the nano comes in five different colors.
 Hold photos. The nano isn't just for music; you can also hold up to 25,000 digital photographs on your nano as well, which you can download from your computer.
 Long battery life. The iPod nano's battery last for approximately 24 hours (longer than the iPod) before it needs to be charged again.

These are just a few of the reasons you should buy an iPod Nano over an iPod.

Once you have your new Nano, you can then download Apple iTunes for free. This music player and download service has a wealth of features. You can import songs already on your computer and on CDs into your iTunes library. From there, you can make play lists of specific songs, and then download them onto your iPod. ITunes also allows you to purchase songs for 99 cents each, making it a legal way to download music. You can also purchase music videos and even movies on iTunes, then watch them on your computer.

The iPod and the iPod Nano are both fun little gadgets that any music lover is sure to enjoy. However, many people find that the features of the Nano, including it's small size, sturdy design, and a number of different size and color options, make the iPod nano the best choice of the two.
