Sure 20gb is alot of music but it's not alot of photos, videos, and apps. That stuff ads up quickly especially if your not using cloud backups for said photos and videos.
Also if your already automating syncing why not just run a audio server and connect symfonium to just stream the content, if you have connectivity issues I believe symfonium does offline downloads like most music apps.
And yea the device kinda is just an extra thing to haul around, now give me a battery backup that has inbuilt storage with the ability to act as a mobile media server I'm all over that.
