Advantages: Small, can hold a variety of files, USB included.

Disadvantages: Only 512mb memory

Before I got my Ipod shuffle, I'd gone through so many mp3 players, trying to find one I liked. My ipod was free with a student bank account a few years ago, and, although I've been bought other mp3/4 players since, I always go back to it!

It's small, reliable, and so easy to use; and really durable.... Ive flooded it twice, and dropped it loads, but it still works! With 512mb memory, it holds approx 120 songs.... not as much as some, but at least you dont need to work your way through thousands to get to your favourite tune! The shuffle option is different, and can be interesting, but not if you want to listen to an album, for example. Sound quality is good, although headphnes provided didnt last long.

The Ipod is rechargeable, and has a usb port to connect to a computer for charging and changing music, etc. With an hours charging time, the Ipod is approx 80% charged, and lasts for ages! With the Ipod you receive Itunes software for PC, which is easy to use and also an alternative to Windows Media Player. You can also buy music through Itunes, and share music over a network. The Ipod can also be used as a storage device for other files, such as word documents or pictures.

There is now a newer version of the Ipod shuffle, which comes in a variety of funky colours and with more memory. Therefore, the first generation Shuffles can be bought from as little as £10, whilst the newer 2nd generation cost between £20-40 depending on the memory size.

Whether old or new, the Ipod shuffle is an ideal, affordable device, and many people would be lost without it!

Summary: Fantastic little music player!
