You can make your iTunes directory use an external drive. So using an
iPod with iTunes should work fine. You can also choose to have iTunes
leave your media where it is, so you could keep music on one drive and
video on another if you like.

I'm looking for an MP3 player for a Mac that isn't an iPod. I
know that a lot of people think iPod are the bee's knees - I
have slightly different needs. I have a Mac laptop with a
120GB hard drive, currently I have ~10GB of of tunes. I have
~15GB of free space - I still haven't ripped/loaded the other
30GB of tunes. Hmmm, I haven't mentioned video, video is lots
bigger.
My plan is to keep most/all of the music/video on external drives
(multiple copies at multiple locations) - most of the video is
already there.
My understanding is that iTunes wants all of the stuff for the
iPod on the computer all of the time. Is that understanding
correct?
I mainly want to listen to music/podcasts and not watch videos.
I suppose videos on trips would be nice, but that would be
added benefit not a requirement.
