I hear they are less virus prone and I'm sick of having to reformat my hard drive.  Besides, I want to get podcasts and it is going to cost a forture to adapt this machine to a ipod.

Think how a desktop aggregator works. You subscribe to a set of feeds, and then can easily view the new stuff from all of the feeds together, or each feed separately.\n\nPodcasting works the same way, with one exception. Instead of reading the new content on a computer screen, you listen to the new content on an iPod or iPod-like device.\n\nThink of your iPod as having a set of subscriptions that are checked regularly for updates. Today there are a limited number of programs available this way. The format used is RSS 2.0 with enclosures. \n\nIn the future, radio shows like All Things Considered and Rush Limbaugh will be available in this manner, and perhaps other syndication formats will support enclosures. \n\nUpdate: For a quick sample of the latest podcasts, check out http://audio.weblogs.com/.

Windows Media isn't the best burning format...I've always had lots of problems with it...use iTunes, it makes burning cd's so easy!

I have had that particular machine and found it to be a very good system. THe video was a little limited but the rest of the system was great. You can upgrade the memory to 2 gigs and run big drives. It is light wieght and easy to use. It was pleanty fast enough for what I was using it for. I have a wifi card and it was fine. I have no complaints about this system. I hope that this helps you out some.

That's a good question and my answer is I have no idea.  Most of the codecs are free anyway so I really don't see profit in it unless the companies are hoping you purchase the product after you have downloaded the codec.  Real Player is junk so I wouldn't even bother with it.  You will find that you need Quicktime player which now comes with iTunes and you can't get them separately but I like QT and iTunes so that's not a problem for me.  You will also probably find out you need the Divx codec as one of my favorites requires it.  I'm also not that fond of Windows Media Player but then I'm sort of a Mac (don't own a Mac though) fan and I have an iPod so I hope you can understand that.

Stay away from bearshare, that's the worst of the bunch in regards to spyware and malicious coding, it takes about an hour to clean it off your pc. I had it, along with limewire for awhile and they both crashed my pc and I live on my computer, so I can't afford downtime. Your best bet, I don't know what your expenses are, is to get a premium account with rapidshare. I use this in conjunction with paypal and pay for mine, the cheapest mp3 album's I have purchased range from 75 cents to 3 bucks. I'd give you the site I use, but I don't think you'd understand Russian. There may be others, if you did some research, like google or altavista. Whatever you choose, good luck. I love my music, but I love my right to download even more. In the past 3 months, I bought 15 cds for less than 30 bucks- worth every penny; artists and bands I normally wouldn't find anywhere else- the european ones especially.

I really like iTunes.  You can pay per song, the program is free, you can burn and make CDs, and you don't need an iPod to use it.

they have pushed it back several times. I suggest you get a mac.  much easier and you will not get viruses.

Itunes will do it all, you don't even have to change it from .mp3 if you don't want to.

you can downlaod to any brand they run on windows so when your working with it, its pretty easy all you have to do is copy the music and mp3's from your pc and paste them onto the drive that the pocket pc is on

Well...I know alot of people will dissagree...but...iTunes definitely...its legal, its easy, and you dont really have to have an iPod to use it...and you dont have to subscribe to anything...you can download music, videos, radio shows even tv shows, right to your PC...and burn them without having to download any converting software...yeah...limewire and Napster and all that stuff is ok...but iTunes is the best...I love it...and you will too...

Napster is compatible with windows + IE. Downloads are MP3 so you can easily transfer them to your IPOD.\n\nhttp://www.napster.com/
