ipod and dac?

Has anyone used an ipod or similar device with a high quality d/a converter? I love the idea of the convenience with the ipod and duplicating my cd collection, but I hate the idea of compressing the data and losing the sonic quality. I welcome any ideas on this topic as well as ideas relating to how to make the ipod and the like a high quality digital source. (Can you modify the recording rate to make the music quality better?) thx

How do you connect an iPOD to an external DAC?

If you're afraid of fragmentation on the iPOD, just copy all the files onto your desktop computer, wipe the iPOD clean and copy the stuff back to the now empty iPOD. Then everything will be stored in nice continuous chunks.

Any idea which filesystem iPOD uses? Microsoft (as usual) did a pretty bad job in this area. Both FAT and NTFS are very prone to fragmentation, but maybe Apple did a better job here...
