If OP indeed has the 6th gen iPod Touch, not the classic, it won't be as rosy as most of the comment here suggest. From my experience replacing the battery on one, you need a hair dryer to loosen the glue and pry off the screen, then a soldering iron to replace the battery since its ribbon cable is directly soldered to the logic board. No storage expansion or custom firmware is available for such iOS devices, as far as I am aware.
Also watch out for low-quality replacement batteries, the first replacement I tried only lasted around an hour on a full charge.
