| Learn the iPod for 5 Bucks (Learn for 5 Bucks) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
When it comes to music these days, it's all about the mix--the surprising, ear-opening, genre-defying juxtapositions that can result from the more than 10,000 tracks you can store and play on your iPod. Thanks to its staggering storage capacity, amazing shuffle-play capabilities, and its tight integration with iTunes software, the possibilities are limitless. Here to get you started--in not much more time than it takes to don those trendy headphones--is a pocket-sized guide that's as smart and simple as the product itself (though at $5, way less expensive!). In less than 50 pages, you'll find everything you need to start downloading, storing, and indexing all of your must-have music on your new favorite accessory. Each page of this tight, bright, four-color guide features a full-page visual, step-by-step instructions, and perhaps a warning or tip. Nothing extraneous, just the all-important basics: downloading tunes, extending your music collection via the iTunes Music Store, using the all-touch interface, and more!

The only other review of this book posted thus far is actually quite accurate. However, the # of stars awarded does not make sense to me. The book, in 52 colorful pages, quickly shows and tells you how to get your iPod running, and how to do the basic essential tasks (more or less). For $5 it is a true bargain. Yes, there are now at least 1/2 dozen or more very good books to instruct you on how to do most anything on an iPod. But that is not what this little gem purports to do -- and it doesn't. The author explicitly states such right at the beginning of the book. For 5 bucks you get the basics...and guess what? I have 3 of the other much more comprehensive books on iPods and iTunes, yet I still return to this one more than the others...because it is simple and very easy to use/refer back to. My suggestion? Get this book, and then pick up a more comprehensive, thorough one, and as there are so many I will only mention one, "The Rough Guide to iPods and iTunes and Music Online" by Buckley and Clark for $8.99. There are numerous others out there...just check Amazon. But for 5 bucks you can't beat this little book...you will learn the iPod for the 5 bucks that you pay...and for most folks, isn't that what you really want?
