I'm talking about > RhythmBox/insert your favorite music organizer here) It's not so much a matter of dislike organizing software as what I thought was the requirement of using iTunes. Reading further along, I see that there are many other options worthy of consideration. Even so, isn't Apple doing its best to prevent iPods from working with other software? For example, I recall that Real and Apple fought for a while. Obviously, they can't change the firmware easily, but I'd rather not deal with a company that seems determined to force a single purchase and management option on users. That said, I admit that I am asking for advice because of an abundance of ignorance, and may be completely wrong. I should have mentioned battery life in my original wishlist. Many iPod owners have found the battery life to be pretty abysmal, and the replacement tedious and expensive.
