So I had an iPod classic for a long time until it recently got stolen while i was at school and i'm buying a new one before i go on spring break and i am thinking about getting a 16 gig touch and wondering if they are worth it.

yeah, see if you can get a first gen one though, so it can be jailbroken

meh, mostly depends on what you're gonna use it for.
i only really use my ipod for skiing or biking, and for some reason my touch's battery doesnt last even a quarter as long as my classic does. also, the whole durability thing should be obvious.
so i guess what i'm saying is -
action sports = classic/nano/shuffle
school, traveling, etc = touch

generations are irrelevant now for jailbreaking.

depends on what your vid is. hd movies take up a fucking assload. i have like 7 gigs of music and some more gigs of videos on my 16 gb touch. most full length films are like ~800 mb i think

and yes its worth it

it holds a ton of video, i have like 8 hrs of ski films plus a ton of songs and other shit on mine.

and the touch is handy for checking te interwebz wherever there is wifi, and itunes directly from the ipod is dope.
