You might as well get the 2G version. That way you can fit in about 200 episodes, if my maths is correct. You'll also be able to do all the other nifty things an iPod can do, only with a smaller hard drive. Kind soul! :mrgreen: どうも、うさぎさん！ You’ll never get all the lessons on one machine, so size is just relevant to how many lessons you want to carry in your pocket.

Any size will do I guess. The great thing about iPods is that you can set up iTunes (the program used to run your iPod) to download japanesepod automatically. Good luck! Try an iPod nano.

You don't have to buy an iPod at all, you just need something to play the mp3s on. You might find that your cellphone can play mp3s. That's what I started out doing. What kind of cellphone have you got? If you got it afte 2006 I'd say you'd be able to play mp3s on it. I hope you get this message before you buy something you might not need! Whoa! ちょっと待って!
