I am planning to get the ipod nano 8g and i had the ipod mini 4g before. I had the mini for 2yrs and someone i know thinks that that is a very short time for someone to have an ipod or mp3 player. I think that 2 yrs is pretty long for an ipod. How long is an ipod mini supposed to last when used daily and frequently?

there really isn't a set life expectancy, as there are many factors that could affect life, the biggest being the hard drive. Some last for many years, others go bad fairly quick. A nano will last considerably longer however.
