    It's so tiny, and weighs nothing. And I have it set to shuffle mode, using AutoFill, so it plays completely freely. I just smile when I'm listening to it, not knowing what I'm going to hear next. I guess I can do the same with my big iPod, put it on shuffle of everything, but then I never did that. But that's just an attempt to explain, and as Gladwell has taught us, you shouldn't trust that. What's real is the feeling: It really does make me a happier person. Weird, isn't it?

    True. But I've been buying music at the iTunes music store for a while now, at US prices, with my Apple.com account which I created when I lived in the US, and with money that a friend gives me as gift certificates. And I'm probably going to continue doing that even after the music store launches in Denmark (if it does), because I doubt that they'll be selling cheaper than the DKK 5.59 per song that the US music store currently charges (apart from the fact that I'm not paying my friend for the gift certificates, so it's free for me ;-))
