Will it fail? Doesn't matter to Apple... if you've bought into the iTunes approach you can only replace it with another iPod... because no other portable player will play your iTunes library unless you convert all your files, and that's a royal pain in the ass, and will lead to quality degradation of the music.
Two questions:
  1. What competing product offers a better scenario? Isn't the DRM used by all the major music stores kind of icky and restrictive?
  2. What's Mr. Tivo doing watching freakin' commercials?????
