The scores of devoted music-blog readers who thought that the wi-fi-enabled iPod Touch would allow them to keep up with their favorite sites' MP3s are going to be disappointed: the gadget isn't going to allow over-the-air downloads of MP3s posted to the Web, although Apple is looking into streaming-radio possibilities. Well, so much for that traffic boost.

that'll probably be worked around in, oh, the first 2 days.
A new internet ready music player that can't download music and can't hold anyone's whole music collection. Yay!
Okay. So they're not giving the touch to MP3 blogs.
What about the power?
It can download music, just not from a webpage (and not shocking since the iTunes software is probably written from the angle of sending the file to the right folder, while Safari is not.
And WHY DOES EVERYONE NEED THEIR FREAKING ALBUM COLLECTION ON A DAMN iPOD. Do you like listen to 300 days of music? Seriously do you? Christ I couldn't even fill up my first gen iPod until 2-3 after I got it and people are complaining about one that can hold 2-3 times what that one did. I can promise your though that those who can fill it and need more room probably have shitty taste in music, or have yet to listen to all the albums they even own.
