iPod totally crashed

Have a 5th Generation 30GB Ipod (the video one with a scrollwheel). Recently it has crashed. It appears to be just about dead battery wise, but when I plug it in somewhere the ipod logo appears and won't budge. I tried the reboot combo but then it gives me some silly message about being very low on battery, charges up for a bit, and then shows me the logo again!

I left it charging over night and the same thing happens. Any ideas? I'd like to avoid sending this to Apple, it has 11.5Gb of music which I don't want to have to replace, that and I don't think I have any more warranty on this thing (do Apple even take them back?)
