[iTunes] Very new to this

[Rick Schwitzer]

Samantha, you open up another topic.  I don't currently own an iPod.  I
have a nice distributed home stereo system and also in both cars and boat.
I am too old to be wearing headphones around on trains, buses and in
Starbucks so I have not seen the true need for me for an iPod.  But if that
is a simple and effective way to store and catalog my current (I have
approximately 300 CDs of which only half of which I would actually want to
store) and future downloaded music then I am an certainly open to acquiring
one.  My question is how do you connect your iPod to your home system and
car systems?  Will it be in true stereo sound with one plug or actually
mono?

Per your other comment.  Can I browse the songs on iTunes without paying
for the service and see if I want to join?

Sincerely,


Rick Schwitzer

Do you use the iTunes software?  If so, click on the Music store link
in the window on the right side (where your playlists are)  That will
allow you to browse the store.  I believe that you can also download
music legally from Napster and Rhapsody now, you pay a fee of some
sort, but I'm not very familiar with it, I have only used iTunes.

Of course, don't forget that you can put music from CDs that you
already own onto your iPod...

Good luck!

Samantha
