I disagree
Anyway, sadly I cannot find those videos, which by now are very old. Simply they were buying iPods classics for the HD space <-- which made sense at the time.
maybe remote photographers who download raw images out in the wilds kinda thingy and use the classic for a storage device
This was a viable option in the early days when cards did not have enough space. The problem was you could not view the RAW files on an iPod. Still can't. That meant you had to view them on the camera lcd.. which back then was pretty sucky. Or shoot Jpeg... bleh.
Now.. the camera LCD is as good or better than iPod or iTouch. The Mac oS can decode RAWs... but the libraries to do that are not included on iPods or iTouches AFAIK.

I hear ya.
I went looking for those old videos of people using iPods classics as storage devices in remote locations way back when. Humm thought Apple web site would still have them archived, oh well.
Anyway IMO, thats really the only market I can see.
