I'm filling up an iPod for a friend who doesn't have a computer (long story)

I've been through my CD collection & stocked it with tracks, and I've thrown on a few trailers from the apple quicktime site.

Are there any other sites I can visit that offer free, safe, movie, video or clip downloads for the ipod...?

For starters, I'd throw a load of video podcasts on there, from iTunes. Start with the Homestarrunner ones, and the Ricky Gervais one. There are various other free cartoons as well.
 
I've got a couple of podcasts on there - I think....

I've noticed that when you hit the link for some of the iPod trailers, instead of offering you a download location, it dumps them straight into iTunes as a podcast.

Then when you go into movies on thr iPod, they're not listed.

Do I need to find them as podcasts in the iPod, then will they play...?
 
Plus, I was thinking more like the goofy, funny little clips that get sent over email....

Is nobody running a site where you can download them in iPod format...?
