Downloading a song into an idpod does not make it weigh any more. The song is written into the memory. And computer memory is only a change in the magnetic charge of a small memory byte. The memory chip does not change its physical characteristics. Computer memory is best illustrated by a group of light bulbs. A light bulb is turned ON for a value and turned OFF for another value. The combination of ON and OFF would equate to a number. The light bulbs didn't change weight. The difference with computer memory is that when one is turned "on", then it remains "on" without the requirement for more electric current.
