The ipod shuffle, the best thing you could bring with you, its great! Music quality on the shuffle is fantastic and its very easy to use, but I do prefer ipod touches as there is more features, and with the shuffle, it is just music. Although if you just want to listen to music this is a best buy, it really is a great mp3 player but sometimes having problems and it automatically shuts off, I dont know why this is and if any other is having the same problem, then it needs to be fixed. I was very shocked when looking at the price tag for the ipod and I can see why so many have bought it, including myself as I bought 2 :) Very basic and thats why I love it :) Overall I would recommend this 100% because you can listen to music on the go and only paying £5?
