Now a days ipod has no use left who is going to invest only for listening mp3 song its totally a waste of money as of now there are many cheap phone and also many phones with great audio quality in which you can also use it as mp3 and video player so buying a phone I prefer then buying an ipod just for listening song. In phone you can manage to do many tasks but in ipod only song and I don't think that its worst even a little bit.
So I would say go for phone rather than to buy just because its apple and we all know that apple is just for show after sir steve jobs.
Thank you
