nope... IMHO there's absolutely no need for them.

Well, I have a rather abridged attentions span, just starring at the album/title scrolling isn;t enough to keep me occupied (or they can add in better games...nah...thats too much, even for me...)

Well I guess they could of put some sort of visualization such as bars or spikes or something.

But I think the majority of people just play the music, and then put the player in their pocket or something.

I would like this although not a must... Also, just having the eq's going up and down while playing a song would be cool

I agree, all that would do is waste battery life IMHO, most users keep the iPod in their pocket anyway, not looking at the screen as they listen to their tunes. And Destined_wind, might I suggest next time compiling wour wishlist into one thread to keep this place a bit more tidy (you have several threads about what you would like to see improved). Thanks!

heh, well i kind of have that figured out. When i plug my ipod into my car the 7" screen folds out of the headunit and i can chose all sorts of visualizations to dance to my music.

The idea is a good one, I always have visuals on with winamp... for the train rides or whenever you're not doing anything... it'd be nice to look at stuff on the screen like that

come on apple, make it an option!

apple seems to be working at THEIR own pace, and disregard user input. New file support is needed, not animations!

What we need is a way to turn on and off all these fancy add-ons that people are talking about. The standard discussion on the wishlist forums goes

Charlie 1: i wish it could do .............

Charlie 2: No I dont..it would kill the battery.

Sinster: I wish it could do......... AND add the option to switch it off so that the Charlie 2 and his frens could get the most out of the battery!!!

Sorry for the curt note folks..but am so tired of reading all this really exciting wishlists (also the genre of this particular forum) and then it getting all killed within seconds by "no, it would kill the battery".

Chika chika Boom!
:-)
