Before I explain how MP3 files are compatible with the iPod, I need you to understand that there are various ways of getting your MP3 files. This to me is the most important point, because you can always get a software application to convert the file if it is not compatible with the iPod. However, it is very important to note that downloading music off the Internet through illegitimate sites tend to be rather dangerous.
Most of the times when you get music downloads for free then it is usually illegal. Some files may be of your favorite artist, and when you download them, either through a peer to peer network or a torrent, you soon find out that it was a malicious file, and either your antivirus protected you, or it causes some major damage on your PC.
Not only does downloading music illegally from online sites potentially set someone up for trouble with the law, often times the annoying pop-ups prevent a person from clicking on the download link in the first place.
Of course the law needs to be taken into account, because you're downloading music and not paying. You can be caught, and there can be consequences. You don't think you have to fret because everybody's doing it, but it can happen to you. I warn you to use a reputable service at which you'll pay a nominal amount because you'll be sure of being legal and of not infecting your computer with a virus.
Installing iTunes on your computer will make it rather simple for you to download an MP3 file. The iTunes software will then convert it and store it in your iTunes music folder. After this process, you just have to connect the iPod, drag and copy the required music into your iPod. It is really simple and the biggest advantage is that most MP3 files play on your iPod.
Don't forget to take advantage of websites that offer legitimate downloads. These are usually the sites that charge for each download, or they charge a membership fee. In return, you can be sure that the downloads that you get are free, safe and easily accessible.
