Apple doesn't support this claim, but it merely stores your music in hidden folders.

Obviously, those who have never used an iPod have never had to use it for a backup. I had a hard-drive crash and was able to recover my music collection from my iPod.
oops I meant to say those who have disagreed with this claim have never had to use it for a backup.
My hard drive crashed on friday. Luckily all my music, contacts, and calendars were on my iPod Touch. I lost a lot of other things like the originals to photo's i've taken and source code i've worked on, but it sure was a relief to be able to basically drag and drop my music straight back in to iTunes and have it just work.
The sync feature works both ways for contacts, calendars, and safari bookmarks — so it just worked.
I've started backing up important documents to a web server now though, and I'm going to be using time machine when I get my mac back with it's new hard drive.
