Tell Me That I'll Be Your Only Wife*

I've been having a little trouble with my MP3 Player the past few days. My current player is by Creative Nomad, and it'a 30GB that's been broken for a while. I thought I could fix it but I couldn't so I would have to send it to the manufacturer but I am passed my warranty. So for the past few days I've been trying to get this thing open to I can fix the headphone jack. I didn't want to waste an entire unit just because a minor problem that could be fixed. I tried contacting the manufacter, but they gave me the run around, and would charge me a ridulous amount of money to send it back to fix. I tried opening it myself but that didn't work. And I even tried buying a similar one on Ebay*. When I looked on the companys website forum pages, apparently this is a wide spread problem that should be a recall but isn't. I decided that buying the same unit would result in having the same problem so I just bought an iPod. That way I wouldn't have a problem for a while. I know these things don't last forever but I've only heard good things. So as of a few hours ago, I am the owner of a slightly used iPod. I am so excited. I have been obsessed with MP3 players since their invention. I could never afford the one I want, so I compromised with myself by curbing my expenses and buying a used one. So from now on, I'm caught up with technology once again and can listen to my music library like the rest of the world.
