Wow. So I get called an idiot and a pirate for PURCHASING music at a site I didn't know was run by pirates. SWELL! I was always told Mac users were open-minded and non-judgementa…

No. As soon as he has loaded the cd software and attached via usb or firewire the installer will make the iPod a windows iPod, simple as that. Just done the same, sold my Gen 3 t…
