Question about
Pod classic refusing to play songs
Has anyone else had this issue? My iPod just flat-out refuses to play certain songs, and even certain whole albums. When I select one of these songs it just skips straight through to the end of the album. I've reformatted and restored many times (and it seems to take longer and longer to sync all my music back to it each time) and it gives more-or- less the same results.
Are the songs that you cannot play protected with DRM?

Try hard resetting the iPod when that happens, I have that happening before on one certain album...

I believe it's dying on you. I had an 20GB 4th gen iPod once, and it behaves exactly the same. I've even reset it using itunes but tracks keep disappearing one by one. The curious thing is all the data out of itune library is unaffected.
