No, they aren't all defective. Most people have no issues with their batteries, but you only hear from the people that do. Because of this, many people are led to think that every ipod has these issues. Even if you were to get a bad battery, Apple will now replace the battery for $99. If you wanted to do it yourself, you could buy the battery for about $50.

yep, it common knowledge that the ipod's have battery fault's!
My two mates got one then took them back after then had faults with the batteries!

They are crap, made by apple> well there you have the reason! LOL
