^not for me...i bought it separately, but its well worth the money. i had it for quite some time, and its still in a somewhat new condition...only a few scratches, none on the screen.

about ipods dirty secret....i mean, i personally think its baloney (i own an ipod), BUT if you do believe it...why not just get apple's extra warranty plan? its ...around 50 bucks, but its well worth it cause it extends your warranty to two years...if the "dirty secret" was true, then the warranty would still be in effect and you could go get it replaced for free. also...i've seen some people who have managed to manually take out their batteries and put new ones in...though i wouldnt recommend it.

also...i think the ipods are better than those napster-samsung and dell mp3 players...after those 4th gens released, its leading the mp3 player market.

now...whether mp3 players are better than cd players...thats another story. i just think its a matter of preference.
