how much memory do i need for an ipod
So it's not a matter of value, it's a matter of what you need it to hold. And a matter of affordability. The movies will be the biggest space hog. So if you only put the movie you want to watch next on the iPod touch, so one (or two) movies at any given time, you will have more than enough space with either 16 or 32 GB. People watch movies once (twice if it's really good); they do not watch a movie over and over again like listening to songs.
