The issues regarding the battery were not reliability but the duration of lifetime and the high cost of replacement. Now there are cheaper battery replacements (thanks to many people threatening to sue Apple); of which you can easily install yourself. Personally, I have a first generation 20GB IPOD (about 3 yrs old) which I've dropped & banged up but have had no problems with...and the battery still works! iPODs are not perfect solutions but they still seem to be the best option so far...(No, I don't work for Apple or any computer company!)
Aesthetic and technological alternatives to IPOD
I would like to get a feedback from people who might be using a hard drive based MP3 player that might equal the Ipod in its versatility as well as its sound. There are too many supporters that will advocate the Iking, but there are lingering doubts due not only its battery reliability, but also some defects that plague different generations of the 4 that have just recently been released.
