ok so i no the difference now. my next question, i know that i will have to get itunes to put music on to the ipod. can i put music that is allready on my computer on the ipod through itunes or do you have to re-download them again from a web site?

''can i put music that is allready on my computer on the ipod''

Yes.

you can use the music already on your computer, you just have to import it into the Itunes library.
