Now that you can buy movies from the iTunes Store and sync them to your iPod, the whole world is your theater. With the Apple 30 GB iPod with Video Playback in hand, those movies fit comfortably next to TV shows, iPod games, podcasts, audiobooks, photo albums, and, of course, an entire library of music--up to 7500 songs. How much can your pocket hold? That's up to you and your iPod, but no matter how you organize it, the iPod holds loads of songs and plenty of hours of video.
Apple's 30GB Black iPod Video offers music and video in a slick package!

Summary
After having an iPod Nano for a few years, I figured it was the time to make the jump to a full-sized iPod so I could have more storage space and so I could watch videos on the iPod. Yeah, the price was quite a bit higher than my old Nano, but I was...
I’ve used an iPod (from one make or “generation” to another) for more than five years. When my previous iPod fatally broke after a little tumble (major con to these devices: they are built to break, as stockings are built to get runs), I...
Strength
Sleek, sexy, fantastic sound, nice quality screen/display, good menus
Weakness
Rather pricey; stock headphones; ruins your whole 'non-conformist' thing
Bottom Line
It's small enough to fit in a shirt pocket, but at 30 gigs, can carry a ton of music, photos, and videos. Nice.
Some time ago, I got myself and iPod. My fiance already has one for a long time but I have avoided the MP3 player craze for so long (Apples MP3 wonder is in it's fifth generation and there are countless products out there that compete in the market...)...
Strength
LOTS of accessories available, very good sound, todays standard
Weakness
a little expensive, surface delicate
Bottom Line
Apples iPods are just simply the standard of portable music players today. And for a reason.
For the money this music player is one of the best available, however, there are a few things Apple could have improved over the prior generation models that they didn't. Issue 1: The LCD is too small for normal viewing. This ipod is a "video" model...
Strength
Good battery life, smaller than the Zune
Weakness
Scratches easily, poor menus/software, eq sounds horrible, lcd too small
Bottom Line
I would still recommend this product over a lot of the garbage that is out on the market so fat.
I was given the iPod 30 GB as a gift last year and I love it! I teach spin class and find it easy to see and read and navigate from song to song in the dark. I have dropped it MANY, MANY times and it has never faltered on reliability. I...
Strength
VERY reliable, easy & clear to read, easy to navigate
Weakness
expensive to purchase all of the accessories that are needed.
The latest craze in music has been the MP3 player with Apple's IPod leading the way. The IPod is a wonderful invention, it can hold over a hundred times the number of songs than its predecessor, the CD player, and is only a fraction of the size. It is...
Strength
Very user friendly, lots of storage space, compact
Weakness
low battery life (for videos), break fairly easily
I exchanged my coby video play for an ipod and I am happy again. The sound is good, battery life could be better, but can not complain. It could be improved but still a the best in the market out...
Strength
sleek design, durable, good sound, ample of storage
Weakness
Easy to use, menu's could be improved, randomizing songs can be playlist basis
