I fell down and got confused. Willow fixed me. She's gay.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

You need at least Windows 98 for USB suport (but I'm not sure 98 is adequate in other ways).

Win 98 worked with an .Mp3 player I bought a few years ago (the player was unsatisfactory in other ways -- it only held a few dozen songs, and was too bulky to carry easily), but iTunes won't work on that platform.

It is mp4, but Apple calls it aac.

Thanks, Jon. I thought I remembered the file type was listed as "MPEG layer 4," but I wasn't sure.

Win98 Second Edition, generally. First edition SUCKED.

Gandalfe, did you see that mix trade Cds are making their way to you?

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.

I don't have to use iTunes with an iPod, do I? I'm generally just going to be converting my CDs to MP3s and then transferring them to the MP3 player.

I'm pretty sure you do, Alicia -- I remember it was an issue when I had my old computer. The tech specs are here.

I believe I did, yes.

And I have Angus's ready to go, I just have to make it to the P.O.

Am I understanding correctly that it just means I have to put iTunes onto my computer and convert my files through that program?

I could probably live with that, as long as it lets me stick in my own CDs and convert them. I'm assuming they're not going to make me pay for and download tracks I already own on CD if I want to put it on the iPod.

You're absolutely correct. iTunes is the best thing that ever happened to you. I've ripped almost half my CD collection at this point. I've got over 11 days of music at hand.

Yes.

And actually, I don't think you even have to use iTunes to copy the files -- you just need to tell it where they are so it can put them in the library for your iPod. I have a ton of stuff I got from Napster or Kazaa on my last computer, that's now in my iPod library.

Thanks for all the answers, everyone! I'm going to go and debate with myself over this deep burning need I feel to own a silly U2 iPod now.
