A lot of it is a large (and growing) world music collection that gets taken to parties, working outside, on walks, travel...never really know what I'm going to play until I select the file(s). None of the current iPod touch models (except for the 32GB) meets that requirement.

I'm totally the guy that carried around a couple of binders full of CD's (100 or so per binder) before the iPod became a commodity.
I'm totally with you on this. We've put our entire music collection on the iPod and find ourselves listening to albums - or parts of albums - that we hadn't broken out in years. We take it in the car, and when at home play it through our amp and speakers on the big stereo. I'm enjoying music more now than I have since college thanks to that little gizmo.

Another advantage is the freed-up space in our living room. We moved in December and haven't even bothered to unpack and shelve our 500-plus CDs since it's all there on the iPod.
