Very infromative thread.

This raises a question for me. My wife has an ipod so she uses itunes....I have a Sansa so I use Windows media player on our PC.

What would I be able to use for my Sansa on a mac?

Would QuickTime work? Or maybe even iTunes, does it support non-Apple, USB-based, drag-and-drop mp3 players? Or maybe you can just use the finder and do just that, drag and drop the song onto the device.
