How many songs on 512mb IPod Shuffle?


Recommended Posts

but don't get a shuffle. You'll spend more time "shuffling for songs than actually listening to them."

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: ....you do know you can play stuff that are from a playlist....it will only shuffle if you tell it too....

Average lengtth at around 128kb/s I'd say around maybe 200 songs. Just my opinion, but don't get a shuffle. You'll spend more time "shuffling for songs than actually listening to them."

lol You don't spend time "shuffling" for songs. The iPod does the shuffling or you can set it up by playlist. The last time I checked, consumer level CD players didn't have an LCD display either :shifty: but you don't complain about shuffling through that yourself do you?

88 4-minute mp3s @ 192kbps

133 4-minute mp3s @ 128kbps

considering capacity being 512,000KB (not really 512MB - a bit less like most manufacturers do)

he didn't mean shuffling THE songs... he meant shuffling FOR the right song. he meant spending time looking for the song you want to hear in between so many shuffled songs.

lets see... shuffle through 15 songs or 120.... hmmm. The point is, if there's a song you really like, you have to "shuffle" to find the damn thing.

it's hard to say since mp3s come in many bitrate and filesize.

if you have 192kbit mp3s, approx 5 CD albums, 6 or 7 CD albums if you're lucky

if you have 128kbit mp3s, approx 8 CD albums, 9 or 10 CD albums if you're lucky

but it's very hard to say by mp3s...

PS- i wouldn't recommend the ipod shuffle b/c it doesn't have a screen... unless apple comes out with an accessory that you can replace with a cap so it can have at least a small screen...

not to sound noobish, but 192kps for best performance & sound quality?

And if a song is in 128, how do i turn it into 192?

no. the higher the better... i recommend 192. some desire 320.

and no. impossible to make 128 turn into 192 (sound quality and performance wise)...

it's kinda like recording EP on VHS and then going back to record that EP on VHS to SP

most of the reason I think this was insanely stupid on Apple's part. It's just a stupid idea... :rolleyes:

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but as for BoA, she can really sing and dance, and is damn hot, and has international appeal. (She's now famous in Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, China and some other Asian countries)

She debuted at 14, and now she's about 18, so there must've been a lot of changes in her appearance. You can't simply call that plastic surgery.

Anyway, I'm really glad that there's Vietnamese fan of BoA out there.

And back to topic, I don't really see the appeal of iPod Shuffle with no screen and no special feature unlike its competitors.

yes she debuted at 14. Who cares? Also, shes been singing alot & been advertising alot of japan, hell, she might as well become japan since she spends 90% of the time there.

As a korean, i read articles on music & film celebrities for my company, dont ask.

She had some plastic surgery done like facial as in double eyelid which is common for some korean females in korea.

Plus, she cant sing for squat. Lip Synching as i call it.

There are other talented korean singers out there.

People people, you don't have to shuffle if you dont want to. You can just do it the regular way if you want.

i think we all know that you dont' have to shuffle if we don't want. but it's still a pain to guess and check to find the track that you want.

to whoever said audio cd players don't have screens. they do, they have something to see what track number and sometimes the time elapsed or remaining.

as for mp3 players, it's more important to have a screen since mp3s have ID tags.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
