Before this thread, I could have sworn that the ipod was sophisticated
enough for you to download the ogg codec and play ogg.  I didn't know.

There is now zero chance of me buying an ipod until that changes.

I used to do my homework before buying hardware that was compatible with
linux.  Now, I just shop at the stores where I can just ask the salespeople
whether this will work with linux or not, and to what degree.  I have
returned hardware that did not work with linux and I let the store know
exactly why I was returning it.  Had I bough an Ipod and found out it
couldn't handle ogg, I would have returned it too, in the same way.
