Hi Craig, I do have an iPod. I like to have separate devices for listening to books and music rather than using my phone and draining it's battery. Personal preference. I now also have a Fire tablet which works really well with Kindle books and just putting on MP3's quickly to listen to. Yes, definitely personal choice here. I like different devices for different things. Take care, Carla.
