iPod 120GB - any way to add music without iTunes?

[TheBigCheese]

Hi guys

Hopefully this is the most accurate forum for this...

I've got an old iPod 120GB which I want to load to the gills with music and connect to speakers while painting a whole house.

It's an old device now and I wondered if there is now an easy way of adding music to it without having to go through the rigmarole of using iTunes. I don't have anything else Apple related and I don't want to use iTunes if at all possible.

I've been looking at some tutorials online and they either seem to be quite old, convoluted or need extra software themselves.

I just want to use it via USB and Windows Explorer...has anyone found a good way of doing that?


tl;dr -iPod 120GB - put music onto it easily using Windows Explorer...possible?


Thanks!

There are various Windows programs that can do this, or Winamp can.

MediaMonkey. Plug the iPod in and MediaMonkey will recognise it. You can then right-click on a song, album, artist or even your whole media library and click on Send To. The iPod should be a sub-option of the Send To.

SharePod is the best I've found. Drag and drop. Doesn't get much more simple than that!
