are those the ones that break after 19 months?

I'm sorry what fools, you could go to Sainsbury's and buy a 250GB one for £30 and have it work instantly. Howver by choosing their poncy nonsense they will mean that you will have to spend ages getting it to work on the wifi, depriving them of itnernet in the meantime, and monging up everything for ages whilst it backs up in a complex way.

More to the point, if its 5GB of songs, why doesn't she just use her iPod in disk mode?

No, I would rather cut my hand off than do any such thing. I abhor thieves.

Instead I choose to gain vicarious thrills from spending oodles of cash on fripperies, handy-sized oddments and such and such.

Bear in mind the 2GB file size limit for FAT32ing. Yes, it is a verb.
It's a 2GB file size limit for FAT16, 4GB for FAT32.
