I am considering the purchase of the 30GB Apple iPod which I believe normally retails for about $299. My main goal is that i would like to purchase a device in which i can dump most, if not all, of my music (CD's, MP3's, etc) onto a portable device that I could then plug into my home stereo, car stereo, friend's stereo, etc... Basically I'd like to make my home music collection very portable.
I thought the iPod was my answer but after reading into some of the specs of the iPod i was really disappointed that it doesn't seem to support a digital connection for stereo usage. I have no interest in purchasing their "hi-fi" speaker because i'm pretty sure it can't hold a candle to my M60's + SVS PB10.
Are their any other recommendations out there for portable MP3 players that have this sort of thing or is the Apple iPod as good as it gets right now?
Thank you!
