iPod Updating on out-of-space iPod

[reykjavik]

My ipod has about 1 gig of space left (its a 40 gb) and it stoped updating the new mp3's (i presume because it cant upload everything so it just stopped uploading anything). Is there any preference or script I can use to make it upload newer stuff and ditch the stuff that is never played?

You can make a smart playlist that will contain, say 37 GB worth of your newest songs and set iTunes to sync only that playlist with your iPod.

Another obvious solution is to find the songs you never listen to and delete them from your iTunes library. If your library is reasonably old, you can probably use the play counts to help you easily find the ones that you don't care about.

Or make it so that it collects either songs played after a certain date or songs added after a certain date. That way you'll get both new songs and older songs you like.
