IPOD Alternatives LOCKED

is it true that you HAVE to have ITunes for an IPOD? What if you have all WMA and mp3? Do you have to convert them all? Does that take double space on your PC?
If thats the case i want to get a Creative Labs MP3 Player. Does anyone have one of those or a different one?-

SanDisk Sansa e260R Rhapsody 4GB* MP3 Player
Bam! Thats what i am getting for snowboarding season, maybe the 8 gig version i dunno yet.
creative zen + windows media player FTW
my brother in law has the 20 or 40GB, works awesome and is durable. I have the 1GB zen and does exactly what i want. I personally don't really like the ipods or itunes or ibageltoaster
well this is what i'm getting tonight. And on an odd side note, i was going to write the first line you wrote verbatim. I actually thought it was me who wrote it and i was wigging out.
I have the 40GB and I love it. I got it for like 1/3 off at www.crutchfield.com around this time last year. You might want to check it out - they have lots of good end-of-year sales.
that one just came out right?
You don't have to use iTunes with an iPod, there are plenty of alternatives like ephod and others.
But iPods can only play AAC, AIFF, MP3, and WAV. so if you have WMAs, you're stuck with converting them to MP3.
you may be interested in the Zune http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zune or the Creative Vision:M or the Toshiba gigabeat
btw, WMA??? come on
iTunes for windows will convert unprotected WMA files upon import

does it import these files into itunes?
yeah, check monster's post. it'll quite a while, and you'll lose quality.
haha - that's great Ian. Not everyone is the uber-geek that u are - hehe - just kidding, but seriously, WMA????
dude you haven't been there when the WMA's rocked me to sleep or nursed me back to health or hid those bodies and cleaned up no questions asked. I owe them and I can't switch. I shouldn't even be talking about it cuz they might hear me..
haha, ok, ok. i understand. WMAs are like a fine wine, to be savored and eaten with cheese. too bad the wine wasn't stored properly and turned into vinegar.
the wine probably came in a box - hehe - :)
haha, with a big Microsoft logo on it
"What kind of woman drinks an entire box of wine?"
haha You know every Seinfeld quote as well?
It's weird that I can recall simpsons and seinfeld episodes that I've seen only like 2 or 3 times, but my boss can ask me to do something 4 times and I forget. It's a disease.
