Help!

Estimated reading time: 2 minute(s)

Dear Zig and Arse:

I need some urgent tech advice.  My 160GB iPod is now full.  I don’t use any streaming services and hate new formats. The only solution I’ve come up with is to get a MacBook Air (256GB) and use it as an iPod.  Is there any other way I can keep my entire iTunes library mobile?  iTunes Match looks kind of sketchy to me, but I guess it is one option.  Please advise!  (I can’t go without my tunes!)

If you used iTunes Match, you could then have all your music available to you on your phone by streaming or to download at will. You can still keep everything...

iTunes Match was my first inclination, but I have two concerns.  Are they legitimate?: The limit on the iCloud is 25,000 songs.  My iPod currently has nearly 23,000 songs (nearly...

The song limit could be a problem for you. The other issue I believe is only an option—you can have your files replaced by ones from iTunes (which is really...
