how many songs in a gig
Your 2GB Shuffle will have about 1.67GB in real or 1710MB roughly. So if you are going to copy high quality music files, lets say 320kbps MP3 files or AIFF (Apple Lossless Files) you can only store about 70 songs. And if you are going to copy songs with average file size of about 5Mb, you can save about 342 songs.
