Buying a New iPod?

A few months ago I finally filled my iPod to the point that I can no longer store all of my media on it. I am no music pirate, but with music, podcasts, audiobooks, TV shows, and games...space runs out fast. I was all set to buy an iPod Classic. Armed with 160GB of space I could even store a number movies from my DVD collection. Then Apple responded to the iPhone unlocking by enmeshing it with 3rd party software. I work for an ISV, so the notion that 3rd party software is intrinsically evil naturally makes me a bit uncomfortable.

I still need a new device, but perhaps the time has come to leave Apple and its iPods behind and go look for something else.

It is about time that you have come to the dark side young padawan[sp?]. iPod is the Marie Antoinette of Society, come to the common man and partake of his bounty.
