No monthy charge! And although there is iTunes for downloading songs for your iPod, standard Mp3's and other various music files work the same with it.

It's a regular mp3 player. The songs are transfered via usb cable I think. And what you are refering to is called iTunes I believe.

No, Not a USB, but a FireWire (1394) Connection. Most PC's don't have that.

iTunes is an OPTIONAL service that allows you to download songs LEGALLY to your iPod for $0.99 per song or $9.99 per album. You may also choose to use Napster or P2P.

An iPod can have songs uploaded to it using USB 2.0 or six pin Firewire (IEEE1394). iTunes, which is available for the PC and OSX, is the only upload software (though why wouldnt you want to use it?). You may use any music files you have as long as they are MP3, M4A/MP4/AAC, Apple Lossless, Audible, or WAV. WMA, FLAC and OGG, unfortunately, arent supported by iTunes and wont play on an iPod. AIFF files will play in iTunes but will not on an iPod. the iTunes Music Service is entirely optional and the songs are $0.99 a piece and come to you encoded as 128kbps AAC files.
