Mine has just started to go a bit mad and crashes from time to time, but it is nearly 4 years old and has been dropped, smashed and crushed numerous times.

I've had a 3rd gen since they came out (a distant time when iTunes wasn't available on the PC and even most geeks had never actually seen an ipod in the flesh). I've never used iTunes with it. |

There are 3rd party unsupported methods of getting things on and off iTunes, but after trying them first becuase i told myself i didn't like iTunes, i realised it is pretty darn good at doing what it does. Which is basically interacting with the iPod and playing your music, yes its slow and a bit of a hog, but smart playlists and party shuffle, and play count almalgamation, as well as syncing a monkey could do (although the simpleness is a pain sometimes) and the last.FM iSproggler (which i've only just found annoyingly!). iTunes it an all round excellent package. Only thing missing is a WINDOWS VERSION OF AUTORATE! Arg! Mac only, why oh why oh why? That would be insanely perfect....

LOL, me neither, i like to sort my music in the windows explorer structure, even thou 99% are tagged i don't use WMP or itunes to play music. I go to the song i like directly in the folders, and i do the same with the Iriver.
Tbh, it's down to 3 things why i got it. 1 - 20G is not enough on my iriver 2 - it's on the bloated and heavy side 3 - It's the cheapest 80G player around, and it play videos which my iriver can't Now i just have to live with itunes and learn to use a click wheel. |

I might have been going on and on at him on msn too, i think that helped
Now look into MusicBrainz Picard beta tagger with at least the album plugin (and probably the disc plugin) like i said |
