That's more than me. But I have 9 (NINE!) iPod Touches. Got rid of all the hard-drive based models years ago.

I have about four or so. Two or three with HDs, and a couple with SSDs. I actually found a 'belt buckle' nano (which I actually thought was a late generation Shuffle) on the street. It still works, too. I also installed Doom on one of them. Just because!
Remember all the flack that Apple got back then? The media were still after them and they were predicting iPod killers any day now. Apple was told to stick to their knitting, and just make computers, and to stop trying to get into the music business. I remember one "journalist" writing that the iPod was going to be the next Pet Rock. I guess they are like Pet Rocks in 2023, but no other MP3 player has any value today, AFAIK.
Smart people bought iPods and never opened the boxes.
You could write a fairly solid book on just the iPod. I wonder if anyone has written a really good one.
