On the treadmill. At the office. Around the house. Though ease of use has always been the hallmark of iPod, we believe in constantly moving perfection forward. So iPod incorporates the same touch-sensitive Apple Click Wheel that debuted on iPod mini. Without lifting that trusty thumb of yours from the wheel, you can easily select playlists, scroll through thousands of songs, and start the music playing. Want that song to play from the beginning again? A single click will do the trick. You can put the Apple Click Wheel to use the next time you want to set your music to shuffle. Right there on the main menu where its very easy to find youll find a new option Shuffle Songs. Everyones favorite option for mixing things up, Shuffle Songs randomly plays songs in a selected playlist or your entire music collection. Youll never guess whats coming up next, so youre always surprised by startling juxtapositions like a melodic Coldplay song hot on the heels of an aria by Caball. And you can shuffle your way through a lot of songs now that iPod lets you play your music for up to 12 hours on a single battery charge. Imagine: you could fly from New York to Paris and still have hours of listening time left over as you stroll the Champs Elyses. While youre on the move, iPod keeps you aware of its charge level, and when its time, iPods quick to recharge. Plug it into your computer or a handy wall socket (via the included power adapter), and you can fast-charge iPod in as little as 2 hours. The perfect companion to iPod, iTunes lets you easily build and manage your digital music collection. Since the iTunes Music Store is built right in, you can browse through hundreds of thousands of songs and audiobooks until you find just what youre looking for. Jazz, Reggae, Pop, Electronica, Hip Hop the iTunes Music Store has it all. And its open 24/7. All year long. In the US and Europe, too. On both the Mac and Windows PCs. As for all of those CDs you already own, iTunes makes it easy to quickly transfer your favorite songs and albums. Just pop a CD into your Mac or PC, and click the Import button. You can import music in a variety of formats (such as MP3 or AAC) and at whatever quality level youd prefer. You can even choose the Apple Lossless encoder. Music encoded with that option offers sound quality indistinguishable from the original CDs at about half the file size of the original. And with FireWire and USB 2.0 support, you can transfer the music from an entire CD to iPod in just 5 seconds or less.
