It sucks that Apple didn't offer a conventional battery and its highly convenient you can get their proprietary battery for the iPod only from them!

Same goes for my Creative Nomad Zen. The batter is not user replacable. I am hoping it won't cost me more then $50 to replace it when the time comes.
Another draw back is that you can't get a 2nd battery to use on those long trips.

I think they call it a loss leader. Apple doesn't plan to make money on ipods. They make money on the upkeep.
