[QUOTE="Kaioshoryuken1, post: 1365997, member: 229669"] Thank you very much for your informative response, it really did help :) +1 for rep! I didn't know heat had a significant effect on the battery life when charging... I have the Incase slider case pictured here on my iPod, and it's had it since I purchased it at the Apple store. I hardly ever take it off. [url=http://store.apple.com/us/product/H3341ZM/A]Incase Metallic Slider Case for iPod touch (4th Gen.) - Apple Store (U.S.)[/url] I noticed sometimes the ipod gets pretty hot when charging. The music I listen to sounds amazing in my Skullcandy Uprock headphones [url=http://www.skullcandy.com/shop/uprock-sc-blue]2011 Uprock SC Blue[/url] and I'm used to having a 256k bitrate or higher with my music. If any songs are in lower quality than that on my ipod, I'm very likely to skip them and not listen to them because my ears are very fussy. I have some music that I ripped off multiple CDs some time ago, and through me being stupid with format conversion to mp3 it lost a lot of its quality and punch, and because of that I generally don't listen to it... and it's around 128k, but a bad sounding 128k. What's a better size compromise? I realize that 320 clearly takes up a lot of space and energy to play. Ultimately when I return home in two months for spring break, I might just take a trip to the apple store and stop by the Genius bar to see if they will give my iPod a new battery/replacement iPod because its life is dropping rapidly. I've even noticed more and more of a difference of battery drain when it's just in standby. There's another thing, usually I leave my iPod touch in standby. Is it a good thing to get into the habit of shutting it off when not in use? [/QUOTE]
