Well, I'll end with this:

Even a anti/ambivalent-Mac person such as myself will say that even though most Mac products are overpriced for the average user (non-debatable, really), the iPod is clearly a winner.

Not so much for the hardware (also overpriced -- plenty of other MUCH cheaper, capable MP3 players out there), but for the iTunes interface that makes downloading so simple.

How about some non-DRM music protection, eh? Oh wait, then you could just download and not use an overpriced iPod player. Brilliant!
