My iPod is starting to distort.

Is that normal? At first I thought it was just a couple of albums, but turns out it's everything.

    What do you mean by distort? Have you messed around with the EQ setings or maybe you have the volume up to high. Those are some of the common things I found with my I Pod.

    The volume is actually quite low and it's still distorting.. maybe it's the settings.. I'll have a look.

    Edit: yep, for some reasons I had it on bass boost. Thanks.

    Another question: Are you just listening through the ear plugs because it's possible that the ear plugs have shit the bed. I had that happen to me with my first set of ear buds that I got with my I Pod.

    Ah, yeah I've heard of that happening too. Do I just get another set or can I get better ones?

    Get better ones. There are all different sorts you can get that may be better and a little more comfortable.

    My nano, the black, old, skinny 8 gig model is now "corrupted." I can't even get itunes to open it up anymore. One day 2000 songs, next day, wiped clean. Fuck you Apple. I cannot work out without music. I'm pissed.
    And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear
    And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
    My best... friend. Wake up, to see you could have it all

    Try and run the battery out on your I Pod and then plug it in. My 3 month old I Pod was fucked (the screen among other things) and Iran the bettery out on it and plugged it in and it worked.

    Try it and see what happens. It can't get any worse.

    No doubt, I was thinking the exact same thing-there would be nothing worse but being stuck in your situation without you IPod.

    Here's hoping it holds out til I can get to a music store and get new ones.
