can somebody explain how gigs work on an ipod?

Answer 1

Gigs are short for gigabytes, and you'll often see them written as GB. They are how much space you have on your iPod. For instance, I have the 5th generation video, so I have about 30 gigs.

Megabytes (MB) is just how much a song or video is. Like, a song is usually 2 or 3 MB. A YouTube video is usually 7 or 8 MB, and a movie can be around 500 MB.

There are 1,024 MB in 1 GB. So you see, the iPods hold a lot! =D

I tried to give you an easy to understand, hope I helped! Email me with any other questions! =P

Answer 2

amount of gigs=space in that mp3 player
mb=amount of space in a gig
song=certain abount of mb
basically a song has a certain amount of mb,mb is the a measurement before a gig.gigs have mb.an mp3 player has a certain gig amount, 2gb 4gb 8gb 16gb 80gb 180gb. a song would most likely be 1.5mb 2.5mb 3.5mb.you get as many songs(mb) to fill one gb(There are 8 bits in a byte.There are 1024 bytes in a kilobytes (KB).There are 1024 KB in a megabyte (MB).There are 1024 MB in a gigabyte (GB). until the space(gb) in your mp3 run out
