    Yes, but perhaps half as many, or less, as they used to.

    If you go to a site like anythingbutipod (where many have ipods) you'll find that it is quiet, with very little activity compared with years past.
    Yes, i was surprised at how old some of the posts were on there, but I guess the must-have gadget is the tablet now or perhaps even the 3DS XL, though I'd struggle to get either in my pocket:) If anyone wonders why a replaceable battery is so important, you wouldn't normally throw something worth say £75 away because the battery had gone, so why do so with an MP3 player? It can't be difficult to make even a lithium battery accessible but then the manufacturers don't want us to hang on to our old devices as there's nothing in that for them. Even the current fad, tablets, will all become landfill in a few years time for the same reason.

    OP, why not see if the same player is available on eBay...?
