I listen to music on my ipod a lot and also CDs on my stereo. My stereo is a 3 year old JVC Hi-Fi connected to a 25-year old Toshiba amplifier which allows me to connect 4 speakers. 2 speakers are JVC and i've 2 larger and more powerful Wharfdale speakers that are as old as the amp itself. I dunno how this equipment has lasted so long but it still sounds damn good, they just dont make good sound equipment like this anymore i guess

.
I can also connect my ipod up to the amp instead of my Hi-Fi by using a headphone jack to phono cable.
When im out and about i always have my Ipod Classic 80G

and i also have itunes when im on my computer.
