I got an iPod Nano as an early christmas present. It's a very slick little unit, and with earbuds it sounds quite nice, but personally I still prefer the origial CD (or an uncompressed or lossless version of it) to MP3 when I have the choice. The iPod is nice for sitting at my desk at work or for road trips (such as the meeting I have this afternoon that's 100 miles from here), but my CD library in the den isn't going anywhere for the time being.
