Time to replace the battery?

I have had my ipod touch 4G for over 2 years. It has been working great, but lately it won't hold a charge for a day. I dont have anything running. At first I thought it was just all the app updates since iOS7. Now I am wondering if it's time to replace the battery? I use my ipod a lot.

iPod touch, iOS 5.1

It is up to you whether you want to shell ourt for batter replacement or just live with the shorter battery life.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following will replace yyur battery for less. Google for more.

Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. You can purchase a replacement battery for about $10
