Yeah, when I play my iPod gets warm.
Is it dangerous on any way? Does it make my iPod more "bad"?
Like, the battery wont last long if I play alot but want to listen to music another day.
You may know what I mean :P

I look at it as if it were a computer. When a computer gets hot you know that it's doing a lot and might overheat, leading to crashing. My suggestion is to just let the device cool down by not running anything that requires a lot of energy from it.

I also don't think it is a hit on your battery except for it's usage. Just give it a breather, relax your mind and hands then come on back.

Mine actually gets HOT. I believe I have some battery or other hardware issues though, because if I play PL without having the charger plugged in (even at 90%) the game will turn off my phone off in a few minutes.

I wouldn't be alarmed if your iPod gets warm after playing for a while though. I'd recommend taking off your case, if you have one, and see if that helps with the temperature.

Mine gets hot all the time and a still play it with the case on and everything. It works just fine for me, yes its not the best idea, heat can cause issues but only if its really getting hot.

I agree that you should give your device a few minuites to cool off if you can when it gets hot.
