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.

someone owns a ipod......
Yes it is quite true that the batterys in Ipods are defective. After that video was released Apple lowered the replacement cost to 99$ from 250$ kinda shows you how much they fuck customers.

, i remember a while back they got complaints and apple started fixing them for free... i dont see how the fact that a lithium ion battery wearing out in 18 months is a companies dirty little secret. I heard that its a common problem for that kind of battery. Apple:18month battery wearing out::MS:causing a world war
