I want to get an Ipod shuffle but don't really know anything about Ipods I have had many MP3 players though. I was just wondering do I absolutely need Itunes? And what do I do transfer my song from Limewire to Itunes? Or do I need to pay for the songs off Itunes?

I was told limewire is free. If you want to download any songs from itunes, it is a .99 a song. If you don't use itunes, you can download any cd's you already have into your computer and then download them to your iPod.

Awesome! Thanks

But if I put songs off my MP3 player onto Itunes, can I put them on my Ipod, and do I have to download Itunes off the internet or is there any software that comes with the Ipod?

The itunes option was on my computer when I bought it. I did recently upgrade their newest version from their website. It is free. Whatever can be put on itunes will go to your iPod, if that be your mp3 player songs. I'm not sure if you can transfer them over to the iPod. I have never had an mp3 player besides my iPod. You can always call up apple support. Call free toll free info for their number 800-555-1212. Oh, as for limewire... be careful. Most free sites come with a lot of viruses as well.
