I am considering procuring a 20GB iPod in the immediate future, however, as someone who doesn't have a particular fast connection at home, and doesn't have an Apple interface at all, I am rather skittish about the entire business, and so I turn to you lot. Tell me everything you think I should know.*
[Poll #589083]
*I have also been told that once you set up one computer as your base, you can't use other computers to upload your music without losing all the contents of your iPod. I have also been told there is a way around this. Educate me kids, because my base will not be a consistent thing, like, ever.
ETA: Thank you, all of you, for your assistance!

However, because it's a bit small I know have a Creative ZEn biggie, which is Napster-compliant, because I subscribe to Napster not itunes. I love Napster with a deep love. Anyway, they have Napster to Go which works with certain MP£ players, and means you can fill and refill your mps player for a slightly higher subscription.
Although you can quite cheerfully download tracks, I think Napster and Zen are a bit more album-orientated, cos that's the way I play my stuff.
I don't like the big Zen interface nearly so much, as it's a bit oversensitive. However, I have Napster on 2 computers, though I synchronise my player on just one.
What I wish I knew: big players need to recharge so when the juice runs out you're totally stuck.
Research, baby.
