Ipods or mp3's

Im wantin to get one or the other...what is the difference and which is better

mp3s
all around better
I pods have one thing:
A BRAND NAME

Mp3 - iPod is just a brand, but you can get cheaper brands for less that are just as good.

Mp3!!! Ipods suck. you can only download or delete music on it.you can't move music from your ipod

Ipod for sure. IPOD!!! :]

there is wayyy more products around, built for ipods, but if you want to support smaller companies.. haha, well go for sumthing different .. I have a samsung T-10 it's pretty cool and it also plays movies..

ipod, don't listen to "em0freak"
you can also download movies, videos, pictures, and music.
ipod's better, it can stay forever! my ipod has been my ipod since I moved to our new house, wich is 4 years!!
and by the way, and ipod is not just for music, movies, and pictures, you can also use it as a flash memory from computer to another!
if you want to know anything else about ipods, fun mail me , or google it.

All an iPod is is a Harddrive with MP3 playing software you morons.It is the same as Every other MP3 player except for the brand name and a few differences in apple's sh*tty software and user interface. Gosh.

ipods are too confusing.
mp3 players are way more simple to use .
