I've got a 30GB 2nd gen, and it is chock full. I have to swap albums about once a week (by removing stuff and moving more on.) And do I listen to it all? Not regularly. But knowing I have it available at any time is great. Do I need all that music? Yes. For the same reason I own all those CDs (and albums and reel-to-reels). When you get on a new kick, you need the tunes (today it is blues, with John Hammond featured).
I've got well over a terrabyte of mp3s. Mainly at lower rates (128). Mostly music, but also OTR, lines from movies, famous speeches, music trivia soundbytes, podCasts, etc. We listened to a OTR Green Hornet show on Saturday night huddled in a tent with flashlights and marshmellows, for example. My father has a 40GB photo. His is just about full as well. The beauty of the iPod photo is not viewing the pictures on the iPod, but the ability to hook it to any TV and show off his slideshows. This includes a presentation of previous work that can be shown to new clients (woodworking and outdoor furniture). I also use it in the field to offload memory cards as needed. (camera, eBook) It is not for everyone (my mother is perfectly happy with a little RIO), but I would have a hard time living without it at this point.
