As much as I love my Ipod, this is the single biggest reason why I won't ever buy another one or recommend anyone else to buy one. There are too many other options out there now that are identical in function and quality with the ability to swap out batteries for next to nothing.
I have to believe this was a sneaky strategy by Apple from the outset to increase revenue. I find it hard to believe that all the planning went into the development and they didn't think of how the consumer would replace a dead battery.

Fuck yea, $100 is still way too much to pay!
