Apple to Recycle your iPod for Free

rdarden writes "After you get your dough from the recent iPod settlement, why not recycle your old iPod at an Apple retail store (US only). Starting today, that worthless hunk of environmental unfriendliness can be turned into a 10% discount on a new iPod (purchased at the same time)."

You're obviously comparing to the shuffle, not a standard iPod, nor even a mini.

Well now ... let's see here.

Ugly: I have yet to see an ugly Apple product, they are the current kings of industrial design, even down to the packaging. It's your opinion though so I'll let it go.

Overhyped: Oh noes! They marketed it.

Unreliable and Disposable: I've heard nothing bad about the shuffle's reliablility, no more so than any other comparable mp3 player. Pure speculation on your part.

Cheaper: Yeah uh, no. Nice try spanky. The MUVO you mention sells in the same price range as the shuffle. It all depends on where you get it.

Lighter: Flat out wrong. The shuffle is .78 ounces, the MUVO is 1.1 without the battery. It's most definitely heavier, unless the addition of a battery makes it lighter.

Stronger: Pure opinion, based on your other opinions.

In conclusion, you're a mac hater that had to post a diatriabe simply because it was an article about Apple. And you're a stupid one at that, not to mention ignorant of the facts.

It's ok though, you're excused. Thirty five years of not getting laid and living in a moldy basemement has earned you some allowances.
