Thank you for bringing up this thread as it prompted a discussion with HID and she has now given me her ipod that I bought for her last year and she hasn't used. :thumbup:

Trick question? If not, there is a myriad of itunes alternatives out there that do the job better. One of them being SHAREPOD, it's as simple as drag and drop squire :D

not sure if this is a better way of doing it....its all about preference.....itunes is a simple drag and drop also...most peoples beef is the syncing issue, but it doesn't have to sync every time ya plug it in if u put a tick in the sync manually box....

I don't want to have to install anything - and certainly not itunes. I want my MP3 player to appear as a removable disk that I can copy files onto like a flash drive.

Why?

Because I don't like installing software if I don't have to. I have multiple laptops with different OS's and I want to use them all. My current MP3 player looks like a flash drive, and I want the same functionality in my new one.

Again.....SANSA does that. You plug it into a USB port and it shows up as a drive

Yep. That's what I want. I'll add it to the list of options.
