Er, no, iPod's battery run on lithium-ion batteries which run better on partial, rather than full, discharges.

Keeping it topped up doesn't count as a full "cycle charge". There's about 300 to 500 discharge cycles to a battery. If you let it run right out, that's one discharge. If you keep "topping it up," it counts as a partial discharge.
