Decisions, decisions. Who needs em? Why should you have to choose what to put on your iPod? With up to 160GB of storage, iPod classic lets you carry everything in your collection up to 40,000 songs and up to 200 hours of video everywhere you go. In a completely new, even thinner all-metal design, this iPod is a modern classic
Overview
With 80GB or 160GB of storage,1 iPod classic gives your music and video room to move. It also has plenty of energy (up to 30 hours of audio playback2), good looks (a sleek all-metal design) and a great personality (a brand-new interface with Cover Flow). In other words, iPod classic makes an ideal companion. Why not get to know it better?
Cover Flow
If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod classic, you can flip through your music to find the album you want to hear. Use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then select an album to flip it over and see the track list.
Music
Use the Click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs, browse in Cover Flow or explore the Music menu by playlist, artist, album, song, genre, composer and more. Want to mix things up? Click Shuffle Songs. iPod classic makes your music look as good as it sounds, thanks to its big, bright colour display.
Podcasts
The iTunes Store features thousands of free video and audio podcasts, including indie favourites and offerings from such big names as ABC News, Comedy Central, Footy Show, TripleJ, NPR and many more. Browse and subscribe to podcasts, then sync them to your iPod classic and listen anytime, anywhere.
Audiobooks
The digital shelves of the iTunes Store are stocked with thousands of audiobooks including exclusives like the entire Harry Potter series so you can catch up on your reading wherever iPod classic takes you. iPod classic recognises where you left off and bookmarks your place. You can even adjust the reading speed to suit you.
Games
Put hours of fun at your fingertips. Download them, then sync them to your iPod classic and play along with your music. All iPod games from the iTunes Store are designed specifically for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on the 2.5-inch colour display.
Photos
iPod classic holds up to 25,000 photos you can sync from your Mac or PC via iTunes. Use the Click Wheel to scroll through photo thumbnails the same way you scroll through song titles. To see a photo full screen, click the center button. You can even view photo slideshows complete with music and transitions on iPod classic or on a TV via the optional Apple AV Cable.
Extras
Calendars, contacts and a clock appear in the Extras menu, along with a few more handy items. Take the Screen Lock, for example. Spin the Click Wheel to choose a four-digit combination and protect your iPod classic from prying eyes. If you forget your combination, just reset it at your next sync. Or use the built-in Stopwatch to log your best times. When its time to play, the Extras menu also lists all your games.
