U.S. President George W. Bush says artists on his iPod include Creedence Clearwater Revival, George Jones, Kenny Chesney, Alan Jackson, and Van Morrison.
The South Huntington Public Library in Suffolk County, New York, is loaning out iPod shuffles loaded with books on tape.
The $210 Louis Vuitton Monogram iPod case is “the most luxurious way to carry your tunes around.”
Walt Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal says the iRiver H10 is the best of the iPod mini competitors, but that it still “doesn’t top the iPod.”
AllofMP3.com, the Russian digital music site offering song downloads for pennies apiece, is the target of a criminal copyright investigation by the local police.

Ha ha so funny that you don’t want to allow the expressions of opinion in a public forum and can’t seem to take a joke! Go get a sense of humor!

Oh, and get as much as you can out of allofmp3.com just now, as it may not be around for too much longer. :(

Why read comments at all if you can’t handle the opinions of others?
I believe that Bush is evil, stupid, dangerous and greedy. That is my opinion and I plan to voice it every chance I get. Get used to it.

What Bush listens to Van Morrison just like me can’t he go listen to something else, what’s Van done to deserve that dishonour. Even worse he’s got an iPod, makes me wanna weep.

Copped one of those LV cases—I really wouldn’t recommend it, unless you’re just rockin’ it for style. It offers no protection on the sides of the bottom corners (interesting grammar), and the flap has a gap of about a half inch between it and the top of the iPod. It will break necks, though.

it’s great that AllOfMp3 is getting their due. they weren’t actually paying anyone. people were paying them for stealing the music. it was more ethical to kazaa the songs than to buy from there.

Well said, MrBeer. I second your thoughts. The impulse to express these sentiments comes from conscience, something seriously lacking in the present administration.

so you all laugh at Bush for listening to stuff you dont like? you should realize that these other liberals you’re socializing with probably listen to music you think is disgusting. And of course you have the right to say whatever you want about Bush, but hes still here for 4 more years, and two of these years are solid-as-a-rock conservative. There is no hope for you left besides ranting and raving about how evil people are, regardless of the fact that they won an election.
