iPod Need iTune info please.

When you create an account with iTunes to be able to buy from them, can apple tell what songs you have in your library that haven't been bought from them? I was thinking about creating an account to buy a couple things, but I have some songs on there from mix cd's that I got from friends and some from the internet. Is this an issue?

If i update my itunes software is that going to render my jailbroken ipod useless, or will I just have to re synch it and that's it?

No Apple won't be able to see the song in your library; if they did it would be big a major privacy issue and Apple would be in big trouble. They only know what you bought from them...

And what's a jailbroken iPod?

You shouldn't have to re-sync your iPod. But then again, who knows.

Apple can't see your iTunes library - they only have a record of the songs you have purchased from them.

An ipod with the springboard and applications like the NES emulator, flash light, and sodoku.
