This is highly dependent on the compression level and type, as well as the average song length. To use as an example, my extremely high quality mp3 files (256kb/s) take up about two megabytes per minute. Assuming the operating system counts a gigabyte as a billion bytes, or one thousand megabytes, your 250GB hard drive will take 125,000 minutes of audio of this type and compression level. This is roughly equivalent to 2,083 hours of music, or 31,250 four minute songs. Other forms of compression which allow higher quality audio (such as FLAC) will leave you with many fewer.
In real life,250 songs.(50X4 mb songs,so from a CD or torrent
I think that depends on how long a song is or what songs you have or what other extra stuff you have. But I know it's over 200 About 45, actually. 1 GB, which is 1,000 MB, holds 250 songs. 180 MB = 180/1000 GB = 0.18 GB. So 180 MB would hold 0.18 X 250 songs, or about 45 songs.
750. 1 song (4 minutes) at 128kbt/s = about 4 megabytes. About 1000 megabytes = 1 gigabyte. Therefore 250 songs per gigabyte x 3 = 750 songs

That will depend on how big the card is. A standard mp3 is going to be about 4 MB, so with a 1 GB (which is 1000 MB), you can fit ~250 songs. If your songs are 2-3 minitues long and your card is 2 GB you can hold 516 songs.
One gigabyte (GB) equals one thousand megabytes (MB). If you figure the average mp3 is 4 MB, then that's room for 250 (1000/4) songs. If you use 3 MB for a song instead, that's 333 (1000/3) songs. So it depends on how long most of the songs you listen to are.
1 GB = 1000 MB so in 250 GB there is 250 000 MB. Which is a lot.
The capacity of a 967 MB iPod Shuffle can vary based on the song's bitrate and length, but on average, it can hold approximately 240 to 250 songs. This estimate assumes an average song size of around 4 MB, which is typical for songs encoded at a standard bitrate. However, if songs are encoded at higher bitrates or are longer in duration, the number of songs it can hold will decrease.
There are 1024 megabytes in 1 gigabyte. So there are 256,000 megabytes in 250 gigabytes.
250,000 kilobytes.

About 5 or 6 decent quality songs.
