It means that every time you change the music on a memory card or flash card
that is one less time you can do that until it fails.  You are wearing out
the flash card, causing bad spots.  This is normal as flash cards are only
designed to get written to 10,000 times and then they are done (per memory
location inside.. some last longer some shorter. if you are getting bad
areas and skipping is happening that means that that part of your memory
card has worn out and will never work again.  When you re-format the memory
card the device checks for those bad spots and tells the card to ignore them
(reducing the size of the memory card the amount of the dead memory) and
continue.  You more than likely have several dead spots that a re-format
will work around.  As you continue to use your memory card more and more bad
spots will develop until the entire card becomes useless. These bad spots
only happen when a location get's written to many many times.

this is normal.  A reformat of the card, as I mentioned will fix it for now.
