Windows 7 - iPod Owners - Do you transfer from ipod like a hdd?

I love my iPod Touch. It is great. I use the solitaire app every day.

My one and only complaint (besides it being made by Apple [not because I hate them, but because of their policies]) is that you HAVE to use iTunes. You can't drag and drop...

I've found out the Zune makes you use software to manage your collection also. So basically there is no high capacity MP3 player to use as a big flash drive with music playing capability. Not to mention that the iPod Classic is now the only high capacity mp3 player still being produced, I found out the Zune 80 and Zune 120 are discontinued and only what remains in stock by retailers is what is out there.

I definately won't be buying either one, but there is no alternative, all I can do is wait another 3yrs before 64GB of flash memory is cheap and other mp3 players use it.

Have you heard of Archos?

The Archos is 3pounds and wont fit nicely in your pocket.

Depends what pockets you have. The new ones are nicer.
