If you illegally download crappy 92kb files, they are going to replay as crappy 92kb files.

Then simply drag files to the iPod or start ripping CD's

I plugged in my FireWire iPod, ran DiskWarrior and backed up my important files.

I have had a recurring problem with "corrupt file" alerts and Apple tech support has had to walk me through the Restore procedure

Although my Zen, like an iPod, has limited file compatibility, there also players with broader support in order to play file types such as .ogg or even .app

If you are buying it becuase you want to lose your music files on your computer to gain more space, BAD IDEA

I really loved the size of the click-wheel ipod I bought....but not at all happy with the way the ipod organises files inside itself

Someone told me that he had a 40 GB iPod, and after his computer crashed he lost his paid iTunes music files

I hope you enjoy your I-Pod!
