Well, if you don't ever play CDs, you can buy an iPod and never use it -- no more work than before, no more music. So you'd be good.
See, Vera? Dress yourself up; you get taken out somewhere fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But I figure that's a big reason why you'd (one would) have one
It's big for me. But I may have OCD tendencies. However, just being able to have all my music with me (in car, plane, gym, doctor's office) and being only a skosh away from any album or song -- that'd be worth it anyway. The OCD stuff is gravy.
Cat toy!
And if you get an iSkin, they're good for teething toys too.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
ita's explanation is cracking me up.
There's less fiddling than you'd imagine. I like having all my music with me and I love having it play randomly, which is pretty fiddle free.
Narrator, yes, that's where both Allyson and lori work. It's the second book on JPL that I've seen or heard about recently.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
By the way, I have a Rio MP3 player that I don't use at all. Don't know what the memory is, probably smallish. Free to a good home if someone wants it.
Really? Are those compatible with iTunes/Mac? I covet an iPod, but it's a bit out of my price range at the moment.

Cashmere? I still haven't received the email.
I did get food, though. Mmmm.

Actually, see...I have one of these memory stick/keychain things. Which I haven't used because I haven't had a driving need for it. It has a ribbon tied to it. The ribbon was sticking out of the drawer I'd stashed it in.
Guess what got dropped on my face one morning in the wee smalls?

Or you can pretend it's a phone.
I just took a nap. I was feeling all crappy and I thought, "I should nap." So I did. God bless rainy day weather.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Years ago my friends would make fun of me because I had these two briefcase-sized tape cases that I'd take with me on any car trip more than a few hours. I'd explain that of course I knew I'd only be able to play a fraction of these tapes, but that there would probably come a time when I'd just have to listen to one particular album, and having 200 albums with me meant that I'd probably have that one album with me.
So you can see I'm the type of person who'd want to have his entire CD collection in a cute little device about the size of a deck of cads.

Best not to get an iPod then. It'll leave a mark.
I think I jammed my finger sometime yesterday. Single best finger to jam, since it's a joint that's been fused since birth, so I couldn't bend it more than 2 degrees if I wanted to. Automatic rest. But it feels funny. I guess I'll give it a week or so, since it's not like I can lose function. It's only pain, and really not very much if I take my nine finger typing down to eight.
