iPOD How many cds does it really Hold ?any Tips??

I have a 40gb Ipod and Shure e5c with the custom integrated ear molds. Absolutely amazing. The earmolds require a little work in that molds must be made from your ear canal...but this turned out to be a breeze. Take a look here:

My Ipod currently has 1100 songs in Apple Lossless Format and is pretty much full. If you are willing to use a compressed format you can hold a ton more...but it won't sound as good.

Also, I have a direct AUX input into my car stereo. Very nice to have 1100 of my favorite songs on tap. If you want the best sonics...DO NOT use an FM modulator. Run the iPod directly into the stereo.

I use the iPod exclusively in the car where stereo information is of little importance. Storing the files in any mono format will double an iPod's capacity.

Onyhwy61: If mono in your car sounds as good as stereo...you need to look into how great a car system can be.

It just isn't important to me in a car.

The 60Gb iPod (with photo capabilities) went on sale today.
