There's no
practical diffculty - far from it, it's all too easy, which is precisely why it's not permitted.
You sell an iPod full of music. That music comes from one of two sources - either you've ripped it from CDs yourself (and are you going to give away all those original CDs with the iPod?) or you've bought it from iTunes (in which case you can freely re-download it).
It's the very ease of duplicating digital content that's the reason for the prohibition on re-selling it. Practically speaking, it has to be that way, because digital content can be endlessly replicated with no loss of quality from the original.
