In the General section of the iTunes Preferences you can select your Import Settings - such as AAC or MP3. Insert your CD into the computer and open iTunes if it is not running. The CD will be listed in the left hand pane of iTunes. Select the CD title and all the tracks will be listed. Right click on the tracks you want to import and select Create AAC (or MP3) Version. This will create a copy of the track and add it to your library. When you next connect your iPod to iTunes you can add the tracks from your library as required.

Do you have to use iTunes to download songs to your ipod touch?

You do not have to buy songs from the iTunes store. You can use songs from any source and use the iTunes software to manage the music on your iPod. Some retailers, such as Amazon, provide their own download software which will automatically add songs from Amazon to the iTunes library. Songs can also be imported from CDs that you own.

Can iPod play non- iTunes songs?

Yes, the iPod will play .mp4 and .mp3. .mp4 files are iTunes songs as you originally downloaded them, and .mp3 files are either converted files that you converted in iTunes or files that you did not get through iTunes. The iPod supports a variety of audio formats: AAC, Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), HE-AAC, MP3, Audible, Apple Lossless, AIFF (as found on CDs), and WAV.

Why does your 4GB ipod only hold 400 songs?

That depends on the sound quality of the songs. Normally the sound of the songs is compressed (made smaller in size) so more songs fit on your Ipod. However, a big compression (with a small file size) makes the song lower in quality. Songs you buy are usually of the highest quality, so with the biggest file size. The highest quality (320 kB/s) uses approximately 3 MB per minute, so a 3.5 minute song would use 10 MB. 400 x 10 MB = 4000 MB = 4 GB. If you rip and create MP3s of your own CDs, you are able to select a lower quality that will use less space. For example, if you select 128 kB/s you can fit approximately 1200 songs on the same Ipod.
