    I have had an Ipod Touch and although all the music and videos I would want are on there I have never bought a single track/album all dvd through Itunes. And same goes for my Ipad2

    I would rather buy the original CD and when I buy a blu-ray I have always tried to get the triple play as you get a digital copy as well.

    You can use Handbrake to convert films you may have.

    And now I have been getting 3d disks which have the 3D film, blu-ray, DVD and digital copy!:eek:

    I haven't read through the whole thread, there's lots of cheaper alternatives to Itunes. I have an Ipod, but have never used Itunes to download my music.

    That tune checker is really good that was mentioned on the 1st page.

    I use Amazon. Most tracks 89p, plus I get Nectar points and they're mp3's rather than Apple's silly format which can't be used on other devices.

    Even the 99p is better than the £3.99 for a CD single I used to pay. Albums can be had for £4+ if mp3.
    I bought a couple on Amazon today for only 69p each. They have a great selection. Bought some old favourites that I haven't heard in years.
  • Download GoodReader for £2.99. You can then download via wifi from your pc directly into GoodReader mp3/mp4's etc, pdf's and a host of other formats.

    Thats why you get premium, you can sync songs to the ipod so you don't need a wifi hot spot on the go :)
