Apple is losing market share fast

My second IPOD in 2 years broke only weeks after the warranty ended. The apple store told me my only option was to buy a new one. Now why would I do that if the previous two broke after only 1 year? Cause they want to make MONEY!! Not make customers happy. There are many other brands that are better than Apple. And for goodness sake, don't pay retail for one. Get one used for half the price if you absolutely have to have an IPOD.
Hp makes inferior products

I received an HP apple Ipod for xmas in 2004..granted it is not this newer model it is only the 20G. However my ipod has now broken three times...and each time HP has glady sent me another which in turn has also broke. I am now going on my fourth one in 13 months. Since HP offers such great customer service they will only give me a refurbished Ipod which I am sure will break shortly once again. Be careful when purchasing a product from them.
Mac?

I just got an Apple + HP 20gig iPod, yes I realize that this is the 30 gig site, but I couldn't find the page for the 20 that was Apple and HP. I tried installing the iTunes into my Windows ME and it didn't work, it said that I needed to upgrade to either Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Now I'm thinking about buying a new computer from Apple, does anyone know if my iPod will work on an Apple as well as a Windows?
The biggest purchase-mistake I ever made!!

The batterie of the ipod-hp 30GB gave up within the FIRST month,
and I didn't even use it very frequently. The support by HP is pretty annoying - by asking 3 service people about the conditions on replacing that thing, I got 3 different answers --
my recommendation: stay away from overprized ipods and if you should get one maybe take the original apple ones, but never decide to get an ipod from HP!!!

If there were more than 5 stars, I would give it a higher mark. This unit is awesome, music sounds great. I don't have a complaint in the world on this ipod. Amazon has a good price on this compare to other places I checked. I've had a number of people check out my ipod and they all say this is nice.
