Now do I look for $450 to get an out of warrantee inspection or a new and less usefull model ?
Thanks for the responses.

Disappointing for you.
Are there any for sale on ebay?

At last look a while back a brand new 160 gb unit, in a box unit was offered for $1200 Aus. I declined to hit the buy button. Apple really put me in a mental bind. So used to what the old classic could do at a very reasonable cost , I now have the choice of smaller capacity ones that I i have heard are tempermental and fragile , loading to the cloud, or an expensive new phone with more spent on additional memory. Decorum prevents me from venting my spleen on the Apple Corp.

What about something like this:

It's not apple but has expandable memory.

Could be worth investigating.Of note I have just found that if the pod is connected to the laptop my access to aulro pages ceases. Therefore will run a virus scan while all connected.

Just use an old or outdated I phone.

*If* you have usb input just use a 64Gb memory stick

Atm that looks like the most practical solution. I will just have to decide what to omit so as to bring the file down to that size. Do they have options of playing , ex shuffle or alphabetical order ?
