SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) -- Move over Bud. College life isn't just about drinking beer. In a rare instance, Apple Computer Inc.'s iconic iPod music player surpassed beer drinking as the most "in" thing among undergraduate college students, according to the latest biannual market research study by Ridgewood, N.J.-based Student Monitor.

what's noteworthy about this is that fact that they are asking what is more "IN" as in which is more popular or hip. Now try asking college students which they would be more willing to give up.

I dropped a friends video iPod, and I thought he was going to cry.
Well, if you had dropped my beer, I would've been a sobbing mess....but that's the beauty, just reach into the cooler, and BANG! Ya got another buck-fifty refreshment ready to go. Cause if you have a cooler full of iPods, you're retarded.

you guys seem to be missing the point. these are college students. [warning gross generalization ahead intended for amusement] the population consists largely of hipsters (guys who wear girls pants and makeup) and frat boys (guys who wear pink shirts and popped collars) and the people that associate themselves with these 2 categories. their idea of a good beer is bud light.

The latest Shin's bootleg is not gonna help you get laid, but getting that cutie in your psych section drunk just might work.

Beer, is there anything it can't do?

Get Brian J Peppers laid?

But an iPod would have even less success.

I can imagine a world without the iPod, but a world without beer... I need a hug.:help:

beer Is Better
:stupid:

Why would there even be a question? Beer always wins. Kids choosing ipods over beer? Well, they're just kids and haven't quite finished maturing yet.

BEER!!!!!!!

I am a Frat Boy, I like beer, cheap beer at that, and I have an iPod.



But I'll be damned if I'm gonna wear pink unless it's her panties on my head.

I guess iPods might be better than Bud, Coors, and Miller.

But iPods are *SQUAT* compared to this liquid gold:
Dude... Bud Miller and Coors are NOT beer. Now bud on the other hand... :evil:

I think if you poured some beer over an iPod it (beer) would win.
You're wrong. You can totaly submerge a iPod nano if is off as long as you dry it out before you power it up.

If you had a cooler full of i pods it would be worth around $25,000!

Someone needs to develop the iBeer. I have no idea WTF it would do, but there has to be millions of dollars there to be made.
I AGREE! Steve Jobs just got together with Nike to make a tennis shoe that changes the tempo of the music with your heart rate from some pulse reading gadget they put in the shoe heel. It's only a matter of time till he pairs up with Budweiser to make a gadget you put in 12 pack so the lighter it gets the louder and heavier the heavy metal music gets so by beer 12 it's an all out mosh.

1st beer, it's Def Leppard to Metallica. 6th beer, it's Pantera to Megadeth. Beer 12, Suicidal Tendencies and Exodus.

Next he'll come out with the PornPod. A device that lets you surf porn all day and while everyone else thinks you're just listening to music.

Later the WifePod. A device that plays a voice track of Traci Lords signature moaning to make it more interesting while you're having sex with your wife who no longer gets into it. :D
