    Depends, if you are (like me) in need of something that holds thousands of songs get the iPod.

    If you are just a casual music listener and like something smaller and sleeker, get the Nano.

    But my vote is for iPod Classic.

    The previous iPod nano didn't support video.
    Does the most recent ipod nano allow you to download and play movies from itunes???

    I think so. Don't hold me to it, but I'm pretty sure.

    Don't like the nanos. My first gen. nano broke and when I went to get another one they only had the video nanos {Before the colorful ones}. I think it's a jib these days. Where you can pay about a few thirty dollars or more for a touch. The nano although is 16 gigs unless you want the black color in 8GB. The screen is small and have less functions as the touch. :p I know it's not on your list but it's something to consider I suppose.

    I'd go with the regular iPod. You never know when you're going to want to download more music to it and the nano really has a small memory. For my standards at least.

    Im getting the new Ipod nano I think its the one that if you shake it it shuffles. I dont have thousands of songs so its perfect for me plus I think it holds like 8 hours of video which I dont watch on my ipod. It really depends on what you use it for.

    I would just get a regular iPod. They whole wayyy more songs. I always find nano frustrating because they only hold 4-8gigs or something small like that. Its nice to be able to carry your whole music collection in your pocket :)
    People usually say that's annoying having all your songs on your iPod, but you can always make playlists and tell certain ones not to play. But, in the end, its really what you want it for.

    My friend likes the touch for special features, I like the classic for gigs and durability, and my other buddy likes the nano for size, and believe it or not, gigs.

    I,ve got the Ipod touch 16 GB.
    And it is a great one, i added more then 4gb music cd's on it, a lot of pod and vodcasts and some games.

    Only when i am playing live online games, then the battery is going fast.

    I'd say normal iPod. It has more space, it's kinda klunky though. But hey, that means it more durable. The nano looks odd to me and I just don't like the design.

    Go for the new iPod nano. It's really good-looking :) And it's fun to watch sitcoms during classes.
    I think it doesn't matter whether you have lots of space in it or not. Anyway you'll have to either create lots of playlists or choose only some of your albums to add to it.

    Space IS important when you have 5000+ songs
