Because you are using it for movies, you must get the 8gb model, the 4gb will fill up too fast. The 4 gb model is ok for a moderate sized music collection, most of those 30 or more gb players are usually mostly empty for most people, but not for movies. Since a 3g shuffle was just introduced, I would strongly recommend waiting for an update for the nano, im betting a 16 gb model is coming, frankly I'm surprised the current nanos don't come in a 16gb model, I think they are just trying to sell more ipod touches, which i cannot recommend unless you have a huge pile of cash to get rid of.

If it must be a nano because of price range or how you plan to use it (commuting, workouts, etc), it's a no-brainer: pay the extra $50 and get the 8GB.If you plan on using it at home and don't mind a larger hard disk player, you might want to consider the classic in 80 or 160 GB.If you can stretch your budget to pay top dollar, the 16GB ipod touch offers the best current player for movies using flash memory.

HI Anne, I got the 4g nano for Christmas. My first Ipod. It's pretty cool. Anyway i have fit 7 hours of video(movies), 1 hour of video podcasts and 130 songs all at once and still had 300mb free. I think for 50 bucks more it's well worth it to double the size. I made my own movies from my dvd's so i left off credits to save space. not sure if an itunes movie would take more space. Hope tha helps

I think you should get the bigger one if you want lotsa movies. I recently put on about 50 songs and it took up .1 GB, but movies take up lots. I have the 8GB also cuz I love the green!! But you are better off getting more GB and paying a little extra than having to buy a new one because of no space left.

I have the 4 GB I bought this and it didn't work out of the package so i had to send it back there is another one sold by the same person its 4star rated but its like 10 bucks more way better choice for the 4 gb http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00HVOOB6M?cache=8379261eb8a9797955fe2b1f3d97bfa3π=SY200_QL40&qid;=1414032888&sr;=8-2#ref=mp_s_a_1_2

I am using an 8gb with no problems.User manual says it supports up to 8gb.I have about 1000 mp3`s and that's not even 4gb.

iPod Touch 8GB 4th Generation is my favorite. But since you had a nano, maybe you might not like it since it has a touch screen,etc. I like it because watching videos on the retina display is AWESOME!!!!!! Plus music too. I don't really use it for much else besides Playing Music/Watching Videos/Pandora. I don't use apps, use the internet sparingly, etc. You should probably wait until September because a new nano will be coming out then.

In this day, considerably, no (seeing as terabyte is available). I imagine you're a music person who listens to a lot of music. If you are, then 32g should be fine for you. If you're someone like me who got a 16g just for my own compositions then you don't need a 32g. You can fit anywhere from 200-300 songs in 1g (depending on the length of the song), so essentially having a 32g would hold about 9,600 songs. Your call. I'd say go for it because you never know what new music you might discover. Plus, it's always better to have extra storage. I would've gotten it myself, but the price was a bit too much.

Hi Terpsichore, to be honest i dont know, but my guess is that the 4GB one has been discontinued, and when that happens the price goes up. Just buy the one that's best for you and your pocket. DONT BUY THE 4GB Please. :) Hope it helps.

This specific one is 32GB although there is both a 16GB and 64GB version. I own the 32GB version and have a 16GB microSD card. I have all the apps I ever need on there, about 20GB of music, a handful of movies with about 3GB left. If you need more space, just get a 32GB microSD card.

Your getting a 4GB instead of 2GB. The last time a spent a little more for this type of update I never regretted it. Other 4GB cards are a lot more spendy than this one.

Absolutely, I'm waiting for something with more ram on the main.You'll find when you start using it on a regular basis, I use mine everday. The storage is worth it. The SD card helps with photos and videos but there are a lot of programs that will not transfer to the SD card. 16GB isn't enough.

In my opinion go with the higher number RAM which, in this case, is 8G. I recently purchased a MacBook Pro. It came pre-installed with 4G, then I went online, bought more memory and upgraded it to 8 myself. You save alot of $$ by doing it that way.

Please clarify: The product/technical details on this product consistently says 8gb but in the comparison section all the way at the bottom it says 4gb. Which is it? Thanks in advance for your prompt reply.

the 8gb model has about 7.2gb effective storage capacity, as for the 4gb has about 3gb of memory. Therefore, the 8gb has more storage capacity

I too thought 5 GB was not very much. However, I've got about 30 books, 10 magazines, 50 pictures, 100 songs (all high quality MP3) and have TONS of room left. Plus you can add a 32 GB micro SD card, so don't worry too much about memory use. The 3 extra GB memory is for future updates.

All depends on what you plan to use it for.Usually more is better.I have the 16GB unit and that is fine for me.I will never use the 16GB. But if you plan to download a real lot then get the bigger one.There is an expansion slot on all.

It comes with 4gb already installed and a micro sd slot on the side that allows you to add a micro sd card with as much as 32gb of space, expanding the capacity of the player for even more songs. 4gb is good for 800 songs-200 per gig. With 32 gb you can add even more music.

You have to pick the gb. It comes starting at 16 GB . I have 32 GB. The one in this picture is 64 GB and the price sounds about right for that. The higher the GH the higher the cost.

It's the memory that allows you to download lots or music or movies to your phone. The more memory you have the more you can download. I have a 16gb sd card on my phone & I have hundreds of songs & 6 movies downloaded so far but I have lots of memory to use. I have a tablet that I'm going to buy a 32gb sd card for & that's a ton of memory so don't slight yourself, get the sd card & enjoy all the apps, music & movies you want.....
