It's really not that bad. It was just initially really shitty for the price. I imagine its an ok value now, but still has flaws that should be addressed in a new version.

Another thing that's starting to bother me is it seems most of the icrap stuff does not have replace-able batteries. I suppose you recycle the whole device when the battery go bad. But the world flooded with peoples dead ipods isn't a pretty picture in my mind. I'm not the greenest fella but this seems about the least eco-friendly thing there is.

Apple will recycle your old iPod and give you a discount on your new one. I had my second iPod's battery go bad. It won't hold a charge. However, I'm still using it with some Altec Lansing speakers for a stereo, but I could've gotten a discount on the video iPod when it came out by giving it to Apple to recycle or refurb.
