A British sociologist has bad news for the mixed-media wizards looking to use streaming video and other tactics to tap into the lucrative IPod culture.He's found that owners of Apple's popular digital music player love being able to shut out the world's distractions, hate their phones and would prefer not to talk to anyone.

i thought the article or similar statement said that iPod owners don't prefer or own a mobile not hate phones.

I have two iPod's -one free!  ... I also have 6 phones; T28, T65, T68i, T610, K700iX2... So, that means that not all iPod owners hate phones!
BTW, I just changed my phone number so that people can't call me... I just don't want my friends to call me, I don't want to speak with them... But I don't think this has anything to do with me having an iPod...

C'mon this aint right, just because you own an ipod means you hate your mobile, and shut everything out, suggesting you hate everything but your music.... your musics on your ipod... so ipod owners hate everything but theyre ipod? I know thats a bit extreme but im trying to make a point.
Ok i own an ipod... i've had 6 infact since last year. Yes i'm concious of my appreance and attempt to look presentable (as do all other 17-year olds), but i'm NOT a fashion freek or whatever... (a technology freek maybe ) Like a lot of people i bought it to LISTEN to music on and NOT to "Wear" I have thousands of songs so it's practical, and yes it's looks are appealing, i mean FFS i'm not going to buy something that literally look's like a piece of Sh*t.
Plus i bought my first one when the 3rd gens wer first out, so im pretty sure 90% of the people who own ipods now wern't aware they even existed then. I was the only person i knew who had one at the time i bought it, so i wasn't just following a trend...
And no i don't hate my mobile phone, or any other "Distractions" you'd be a pretty lonely freak if you blocked everything out but your thoughts, no social life etc. I love my mobiles (why else would i be on this forum) I've owned plenty of mobiles 20/30, i just lost my p900, and i felt depressed, i was UPSET... would someone who hated their phone be upset? No.
So i guess that was all a bunch of bullsh*t, i own an ipod, and love technology (especially my Sony T3 camera), and don't block out all the little things which annoy me, i accept the fact that they exist and forget about them. Simple.
Bloody hell, researches came to the conclusion that ipod owners are unsociable freaks who are too self-induldged to care about anything... STEP INTO THE REAL WORLD people don't by ipods because they are unsociable or what ever, they buy them because they play music. Simple. There is no real hidden meaning behind owning an ipod, apart from the fact that you like music, or of course your some trend following low life.
Ah well, they're my views on the subjects of owning a little white pocket rocket |
