Ipod

[Richard]

Ive just got a new ipod to replace my existing one, and I have heard that unless you change a setting or something in Itunes, when inserting the new ipod for the first time, everything is wiped off.

Is this true?

bollocks, you need the new itunes 7.1 thats it mate.

No it isn't true. Your iTunes library doesn't care what iPod you have connected.

But if the iPod has someone elses music on it then you will lose all the music off the iPod as it can't have more than one library associated with it. Not an issue if it's a brand new empty iPod.
