Capacity question / "Other" category

tomb528 · 05-01-2009, 11:08 PM

I own an 8gig iTouch. In the iTunes Summary section of what is on it the actual capacity is 7.2gigs. I have about 1790 songs, no apps, no movies, no podcasts, nothing but music. In the OTHER category it says there are around 300mb in there but I have no idea what it could be.
I'm probably picking nits but 300mb is another 50 to 60 songs. Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about or what is in the OTHER section?

300mb sounds about normal.

Thanks. Maybe Apple should sell it as a 7gig iTouch. A bit of false advertising but still something that will have to be pried from my cold dead hands.
