| iPods are Broken |
Although I do have a lot of music on my iPod Touch, I don't actually listen to very much. I primarily use my iPod for listening to podcasts. I like doing this as it gives me a chance to be learning when I'm doing other passive tasks such as walking, running, etc.
So here is what is happening. Lets say I'm listening to the Quirks & Quarks podcast from CBC, and I stop listening to it after 23 minutes. Then, I go about doing other things, and leave the iPod as it was when I stopped listening to it.
Later, the next morning, I will connect my iPod to my computer to download the latest podcasts. Then, instead of resuming Quirks & Quarks, I decide to listen to a different podcast. When I click play for the new podcast, it will start playing the new podcast where the last one ended off. So in this case, I would have missed 23 minutes of the podcast that I was listening to!
Yes, I know it isn't a big deal to rewind with an iPod, but it is the principle of the thing. Apple made its mark by saying switch to Apple products, because PC products all suck, and break, and smell like rotten fish poop, etc. Yet their products, as of late, have been fail after fail after fail!
I'm just saying it isn't that hard to get a good reputation, but it seems really difficult to be able to keep it!
