Re: Please don't shoot me, but an iPod question....

I ride the subway daily and agree that you don't NEED to use anything more than 128 or at most 256 for that. But, if you try to use your iPod as a source to a better system you will hear the difference.

I use both lossless and compressed formats depending on the music. For me,loud garage band type stuff doesn't need the lossless format, but classical and acoustic jazz does. Experiment for yourself and see what works for you. Consider that a full CD is 700mb so that you'll get about 40-50 CDs worth or so onto a 30gb iPod with the lossless compression, maybe a bit more since it is still somewhat compressed.
