Overall, 53% gave the thumbs up to HD, while 37% chose the iPod and 10% answered “don’t know.” Broken out, 18-34 adults chose HD by a 51% margin compared to 43% who selected iPods and 6% answering “don’t know.”  HD led by 59% to iPod’s 28% in adults 25-54, with 13% of respondents answering “don’t know.”
