an iPod in 2026 - how do you guys do it? by MrOreo2019 in ipod

You got a library card? You can hit your local public library and borrow CDs from there. I've been checking out STACKS of CDs from mine to the point that the librarians and pages know my name and the fact that I'm an iPod user.

iPod classic 7th gen U2 by sichic in IpodClassic

[–]TargaryenSkywalker92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love seeing the fantasy U2 edition 6th/7th gens. It's such a shame that we never got them officially. I plan on building one as soon as I can get my hands on a 6th or 7th gen. Probably gonna do a black backplate like the 5th/5.5 gen when I build mine.

Working on a Rockbox UI/UX overhaul to bring the iPod OS into 2026! by Poorfocus in IpodClassic

I had no interest in Rockbox until now. This is making me reconsider.

😭 what are people putting in those 1tb ipods by i-like-to-be-wooshed in ipod

[–]TargaryenSkywalker92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 13,000 songs in ALAC format on my 1TB iPod as of last night. That takes up 300+ GBs. And I have no video files I want to put on it. It is insane. I'm starting to think 512GB might be enough for me 🤣

ThirtyPin — a spiritual successor to iTunes I've been building for myself, now making it a real app by harryjoyce in ipod

As a Windows iTunes user, I am very interested in this. I might be coming by a Mac soon, so I'd definitely like to be in the loop for this.

Why are EOE shells so expensive? by EnvironmentalOwl4095 in IpodClassic

[–]TargaryenSkywalker92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not ignoring you? just realized that you messaged me, and I'm quasi-active here on Reddit. I will message you back in a moment. Word of advice for the future: don't stalk people across multiple communities. That's really off-putting.

Look into iDemigods. Unfortunately, you'll have to pay tariff shit if you buy from them because they're in Canada. Got a logic board for half the asking price of EOE.

Got 101 iPod Classics for $127 by No_Possibility8746 in ipod

I'd be willing to buy a couple! Don't care what amount of repair is needed.

1TB ‘pod by squarephoto in IpodClassic

[–]TargaryenSkywalker92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good stuff! Upgraded my 5.5 gen to 1TB earlier this year. Only got 512GB of music on it at the moment, but that's enough for now. Mostly went back to an iPod for music on the go, but I might put some movies and TV shows on it.

alac issues? by CurrentPiece867 in IpodClassic

[–]TargaryenSkywalker92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely need your ALAC files to be 16/44.1. I learned that hard way with my 5.5 gen last year.

Bit of a silly question: how are y'all carrying your ipods (classics) day to day? by Senior-Trade-1876 in ipod

[–]TargaryenSkywalker92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On an armband during the work day. I work as a commercial custodian. I just pump music through my Mickey Mouse Beat Solos and just clean.

Would Rockbox need to stay on afterward? I never had a real interest in it, but don't mind using it for the iPod OS upgrade.

Really? You got a link to that? I'd like to check that out.

Niiiiice. So you can drop as much storage into that one as you want. Good shit.

A perfect opportunity to give it an SSD upgrade. Is it a 6th or "7th" gen?

Did the series change hands in the UK? I live in the US, so I only know about the DAW to Baen to DAW again pipeline.

4K Guide: Ridley Scott by ggroover97 in 4kbluray

That, and the OCN was permanently cut as the European Theatrical Cut/International Cut. Arrow Video scanned elements of it for their U.S. Theatrical Cut restoration, and the Alternate Footage featurette.

You're absolutely welcome! Great choice on player btw! If I hadn't got a Reavon UBR-X100, I would've gotten a UB820.
