Survey: iPods more popular than beer


Kids today, I'm telling you...

Nearly three quarters, or 73 percent, of 1,200 students surveyed said iPods were "in" — more than any other item in a list that also included text messaging, bar hopping and downloading music.

In the year-ago study, only 59 percent of students named the iPod as "in," putting the gadget well below alcohol-related activities.

This year, drinking beer and Facebook.com, a social networking Web site, were tied for second most popular, with 71 percent of the students identifying them as "in."

    I'm at a loss here, because I really like beer, but still, yeah, I bought an ipod yesterday and not 45 six-packs of beer.

    BUT I did buy two beers of Rogue, which is easily worth (in flavor-units) 20 six packs.
