Ok, so i backed up my ipod, thanks to those who helped on that. now i'm thinking i want to just change the battery out, because I think that is the main problem with my ipod. I tried contacting my local ipod store and they can't even tell me if they have an ipod video battery in stock unless i make a technical advising appointment. so i hate apple at the moment due to that. so i'm thinking about changing the battery myself through this site:

I just need to order the battery from somewhere. Is what i am doing a good idea? I also heard that if i let Apple handle the battery change, they will delete everything off my ipod. is that true?

I don't know if this will help but this is Apple's take on the issue.

my friends Ipod battery was dieing as he took it to the apple store and for 65$ they gave him a new video (the one he had was 2 years OUT of warranty).
I'd really consider hitting up the apples store. -
I don't think its a good idea to change it yourself; just bring it into the Apple Store and usually the repair/change is quick and straightforward.

hmmm... new Ipod for $65? maybe I should check out the Apple store now that I am in a better mood. Thanks a ton for all the great advice!

Eh, Why you didn't just post this in your last thread is beyond me, but just take it to an Apple Store.
