Ipods are great, but itunes is shit, so I wouldn't get an ipod myself....

that said I wouldn't get a Sony Mp3 player either - as with one you are forced to use Son'ys software (IIRC, SonicStage) to transfer music. And also IIRC, the reason you have to use this software is cos they odn't play MP3 as such - the files are transcoded into ATRAC3 file types - the same audio filetypes as minidiscs - a musical data format designed by Sony.

But sorry Mark - I don't know why it's not working, and I need to be there and fook around with it to sort out how to make it work

I have the cool purple 6gig Walkman jobbie, and yes, the Connect software wouldn't work so I use the latest version of Sonic Stage, and the player is awesome, far cooler than an Ipod imo! If you don't want to reduce the quality then the files go across as MP3 AFAIK its only when you compress them they convert to ATRAC.

But sorry mate, have never had such problem.

You need itunes to be able to sync the tracks between the PC and the ipod.....
