I have a 30GB video iPod, which is used to play music 99.9% of the time. It's a couple of years old--I'd need to dig out the Applecare agreement to see.

Anyway, it's been acting up for the past couple of days. Songs that had previously played without incident will stop dead. If I restart them, they will play for a few more seconds, sometimes a minute, then stop again.

When this happened yesterday, I rebooted the device a couple of times. It behaved fine last night during my run, and this morning during the drive in. This afternoon, it started stopping again. Two restarts later, it seems to have straightened out.

I'm wondering if this is just one of those things, or a sign that the hard drive is failing?
