I love the ipod mini's but the fact is that nearly everything else in the mp3 market has better sound quality then it, it has like 83db when other players like the creative Zen Micro has 98db.... i can't remember what measurement that is in. but the ipod mini has about 47% distortion when the creative has 5% distortion! thats the only gay thing
EDIT: Its called a SNR rating by the way
