I don't pay for shows. I find all the free stuff and also download any free quilting podcasts and videos on to my iPod. I don't have an iPhone but guess you could do them as well on it. I watch the videos over and over. We took a bus trip recently and I listened to the podcasts and watched the videos when it got dark and I wasn't sleepy whiled we traveled. With the earphones, it didn't bother any one. Will be flying to San Antonio Aug. 3rd for my DGS Air Force graduation and will be using the iPod then...
