Why Is It Taking So Long To Back Up My Ipod?

Hey folks,

Plugged in my touch to change some music/remove some videos & it's been backing up for over an hour now.

Any idea what could be causing it to run at snails pace or is this normal?

Thanks

Same on the ipad. Takes forever.

If I just want to sync, I hit the 'x' up the top to cancel out of the backup.

I do let it complete a backup though every other time I sync up.

Not sure what the hell it backs up each time but it's slow!

My iPod touch used to take ages but seems to be a lot quicker now.
My iPad takes forever. I sometimes click the x like the previous poster. I just hope I haven't lost my previous backup when I do this.
I get the impression that sometimes it just backs up any differences between the last backup and now and then every so often does a full backup of the device.
