There has been quite a bit of music discussion over the last few weeks. By request, we now have a brand new iPod and Music section of the discussion board. Lets get to it, what are your favorite workout songs and MP3 gear?

For the best experience, I'd have to suggest any version of the ipod music player. The itunes software also offers one of the best deals for purchasing music (99 cents per song) and comes free packaged with your ipod. I've open nearly every version of the ipod that has been released and really feel its worth the money!

I've had an iPod for 2 years and can't imagine working out without it. I've used Limewire, a free service, to download tunes. You can select the format (mp3, mp4, wav) you want and, if you get an iPod, iTunes will convert the file when you drop it into your library.

There is no problem at all if you are not using a mac. There is a windows version of itunes that comes with hardware. Just load it and go!

I've been running i-tunes on windows XP for the last year and have had zero problems. i-tunes is the software used to manage your music and your i-pod,

I must have poor ear genetics... My problem is keeping the ear peices in. I actually got lso frustrated on my last run, that I abruptly stopped running and felt something pop in my calf. Any suggestions???

I love my Nano, and find I can put it most places when I exercise. I have an arm band, but I usually put it on the back of my hat when I run. I do find that my pace and motivation change with the song.

I also use Windows XP, no problems so far.

Finally, I have a client who is launching a MP3 product that will access Sirius radio as well as store songs. It is available, but I have not seen one yet.

I must have that product. I'd rather listen to football games than music during my long runs. I have sirius at home and car, if you have more information on the MP3 version, please keep me posted. Thanks!

Ear pods don't work for my ears either. I have to use a headset type, not the pods. Not as compact but at least I get my music. I have tried many but have yet to find small ear buds that fit in my ears. Anyone else? Beverly

I like my 60gb I-pod, allthough it is a little heavy on the arm, so I usually just toss it in my pocket or carry it in my hand.

I have a Sansea Sandisk and I love it. It is about the same size as the iPod Nano but I got it for $90 less and it has a built in FM tuner. The tuner comes in handy when I have to hit the treadmill at the gym. I can tune it to the TVs.

It comes with the Rhapsody software and you can download unlimited songs to your MP3 player for $15 per month.
