    You download the songs from apple itunes(might be able to use other sites but not sure), you need to download itunes, i think costs vary, because you bought a nano your tied to use itunes, but saying thats its good,

    You can download from other places, as long as the tracks are AAc or mp3, and don't have any DRM on them.

    Yes they are that open that they won't even let you drag music onto your ipod because it HAS to go through itunes or movies

    yet every other mp3 player on the market will.....so yeah real free

    oh and the iphone thats locked to every free source application

    yet i can install ANYTHING on my windows run phone

    But Cat, iPods are the biggest sellers, so they must be the best, right? ;)
