Was thinking of getting an i-pod but just wanted to know, do you have to actually buy the songs or can you just download them for free from sites, like ye do with kazaa ect?

erm yes you can use your own mp3's. you can buy m4a files from itunes if you want.

or you can do what i and the majority of people do, buy the cd (have a hard copy packaging is worth something to me) rip them to mp3 then play on your ipod.

this thread may or may not get locked as it's bordering on illegal activity. so before it does i'd just like to tell you that the ipod is very limited in file formats.

mp3, wav aac are supported whereas the other wealth of mp3 players out there do these and much much more, wav ogg etc etc.
