Then create a Smart Playlist with the Nice-To-Have music in it. Once your Must-Have list is less than roughly 90GB, just put it on the iPod. However, if you think of your music as two types the Must-Have music that you might want to play at any time and therefore want available on the iPod and the Nice-To-Have music that it would be nice to hear every now and again. Let's start with the limited storage capacity of the Touch at 128GB.Ī 128GB Touch cannot hold a 145GB (or larger) Library. So the point of this thread is to help iPod Classic users decide whether the iPod Touch will work for them and one thing we can do is to compare the two devices to see if the features of the Classic are present on the Touch and whether the Touch has additional features that make up for the loss of a Classic. Also, some later versions of the Classic can only use up to 128GB of storage, no matter how much storage you add to the device.) (Probably more suitable for gadget freaks who like hacking stuff. Buy a kit to convert the broken Classic into a solid state hard drive.Other brands of high capacity mp3 player. Now I've had to move on, I have discovered that the most suitable replacement for me is the 128GB iPod Touch but what alternatives are there for the undecided?.The point here is to help Classic users decide on the best way to to replace their Classic and as the Classic reaches the end of its life, there's never been a better time to consider your options. What's the point of this thread? Wouldn't it be better placed in the iPod Touch community?Īnyone already using the iPod Touch already knows, one way or the other.An additional question may well be “but how do I fit 134GB of music onto a 128GB iPod Touch?” Obviously, that can't be done but it is possible to manage it in an easy and convenient way. Well, I've had no option but to find out, and based on my experience so far (a couple of weeks), the short answer is yes. The question now is “will the features of an iPod Touch be enough to outweigh the limited 128GB storage with its unused and unwanted apps that take up valuable storage space?” It does however, address one concern: if you were prepared to spend your money on another iPod Classic, then you can probably justify the money on a 128GB iPod Touch, even if it means going without breakfast a few times. In an ideal world, you'd buy another Classic, but since the Classic is no longer available, the best advice is to accept that and move on. If you're old enough to have grown up buying CDs, or – like me, old enough to have grown up buying records and then CDs and you don't refer to records as “vinyls” 😉, then you probably have a large selection of music in your iTunes Library, a 120 or 160GB iPod Classic, no need of Spotify or Apple Music and a nagging concern about what to do when your Classic fails.
