Personally I haven\'t seen an Ipod Shuffle up close, but one of the major differences is of course that it doesn\'t have a display screen which personally I wouldn\'t like because it might make it harder to select single songs. Second is the size. I think the Ipod Shuffle stores up to 240 songs (which is quite a few songs, don\'t get me wrong) as opposed to the bigger sized Nanos or whichever one you want to go for. One thing that would make me choose an Ipod over your regular mp3 player is the quality and the warranty you can get as well as the ultra smooth syncing with Itunes and general installation.
Now again, it all depends what you are planning to do with it. If you only want to listen to a few tunes while running a treadmill or jogging or what not a regular off the shelf mp3 player will do you just fine and will save you a lot of money, but if you are looking for something more long term that will last you a while and allows you other features I would go with an apple product. Hope this helps!
