I wish I had more single-purpose hardware without extraneous complexity and complications. Is using an iPod today practical? Does the original iPod firmware or Rockbox support FLAC and Opus file formats? What about the obscure video game emulation audio formats like .nsf and .spc?

Rockbox supports FLAC and .nsf and .spc and Ogg Vorbis, but not Opus -- yet. Look at the manual for the whole list.

However, Rockbox does support Opus on other devices. Been using it exclusively on my Sansa Clip+ for at least a year.
