I use iTunes a whole lot (on my Mac), yet I've paid for exactly two 
tunes (out of nostalgia). In fact, I download several podcasts daily 
via iTunes. There are even video podcasts such as the ones from Make 
magazine (<http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive/make_podcast/>, 
<http://www.podguide.tv/archives/2006/05/make_magazine_v.html>).

There's a great deal of free content available in a very handy form via 
the iTunes application, especially if you have an iPod, which is very 
nicely integrated.

For me, when it comes to the media / entertainment side of computing, 
I'd just as soon operate in the relatively mindless, "it just works" 
mode that Apple has mastered.

I used to love my Rio Karma, and I kept all my ripped CDs in Vorbis 
audio format, which it supported. That is, I did until I left it on the 
Greyhound. I hope whoever got it is enjoying it (for the mere price of 
a replacement power brick—that, along with the dock, I still have).
