I liked the touch, too ( mostly because of the large screen for videos ). But I need a high capacity for the movies, that I'll convert from DVD's I rent ( just to make sure, I can do that with a DVD to IPOD converter thing, right???? ).

And another thing, I originally saved up for the 80 GB ( before the 160 GB came in ) . And now, the 80GB's price has went down while the 160GB has the 80's old price. Should I buy the 160 or 80? I mean I know the 160 is too much but.... I just need some opinions

Ripping DVDs is illegal, but yes you can do that. You like the Touch screen, but need more storage for movies, you like he 160GB for capacity, but I think the screen size will be too small, for all of those movies you wanna watch.

Ripping DVDs that you own isn't illegal, but what he's talking about most certainly is.

The iPod touch is a wonderful PMP and over time will probably because the standard iPod over time. However, at this point, the costs are pretty drastically inflated. Apple is making about 92% profit of each if you factor out the production and materials cost. While Apple is known for taking a wide margin out for themselves, most of this likely has to do with research and development. The touch screen alone isn't enough to warrant paying $350 for a 16GB player. This is all relative of course, I own a first revision 5G iPod and already have 30GB of storage, which I've filled up, so I can't see myself paying another $350 for a smaller player.

My advice on the touch is wait until they come out with something better. Apple has more than paid for the R&D on the iPod and the design pretty much sells itself, so the unit has gone from costing $500 to $250, and capacities have skyrocketed. There's no getting around the sheer awesome bang for the buck that the iPod classic is.

Copying DVDs is a tricky aea. You are allowed to make a backup of your copy, but you aren't allowed to circumvent any copy protection that is in place. So it's a catch 22.

About the renting thing... I didn't mean rent as in its official meaning, I meant it more like as in "borrow". You see, technically I think I own the DVD's but I share them with other ppl in sort of a library ( and I don't mean like a subscription to some video store )............-_- It's a long and complicated story

Anyway.... I didn't understand the last part about the DVD copying and the "catch 22". Would you be more clear please ?

Thnx but I also need more opinions and points of view so BUMP

Is there going to be an Ipod Touch with high capacity ( like 80GB or 160GB )?

If so, should I buy it or an Ipod classic of the same capacity? Why or Why not?
