To use an Ipod properly you really have to make sure the songs are tagged correctly. Having the song name and artist as the filename is not enough because Ipods look at the hidden data within the file that lists song, artist etc.
It's just a matter of making sure your old songs are named properly in the MediaMonkey library - with Song in the correct column and artist in the correct column etc.
And I assume if you import your future music onto your computer with a good program like Media Mokey, it will make sure things are automatically tagged properly anyway. Though I did have to spend time this morning renaming 30 song I imported from a compilation that just listed Artist:Various Artists - which would have made the songs hard to find when on the Ipod
(Edit: Media Monkey has some tools that attempts to locate find tags for you under Tools)0
