Another time-honoured option is Senuti (that's iTunes spelt backwards), probably the first in the genre and still going strong. Also not free. I fully endorse Ronni's suggestion of preventing auto-syncing on your iPod. It's always the first setting turn off. It's an extremely important thing to be aware of if you ever have occasion to plug your iPod into someone else's computer. In this case you will be prompted to decide if you want to sync your iPod with the new computer. NEVER SAY YES! Your iPod's contents will be replaced with those of the new computer if you do. All of this is a nasty hangover from the original (and probably still current) licensing agreements with the music companies which allowed the iTunes Music Store to be launched in the first place, and is starting to feel a little anachronistic.
