So with the iPod....can you download songs without having to pay for them? I only know how to use ITunes for it, but I don't feel like shelling out a buck a song if I don't have to.

you can rip your own CDs and put them onto your ipod. or you can buy them on iTunes. or you can download songs from the internet, without paying for them, but that is of dubious legality.

Yeah, and there will be no dubiousness...es...ne...anyways, no sneakiness of any sort. Yeah........
