I would think these devices are computer related enough for inclusion on Super User (I'd even say they were computers). Why are there 50 questions tagged iPod on superuser.com but this one gets closed at not computer related:

etc.

It seems a bit ridiculous that if I can work in iTunes, or the OS of the computer my iPod syncs with that then the question is OK.

For example, see Upgrade order for new computer and new iPod?

Is a question about a computer AND an iPod OK? But a question about an iPod alone should be closed? Seems arbitrary.

Also consider that howtogeek.com includes hundreds of questions on iPods (including iPod Shuffles).
