The next question is 'Where can you get those iPod videos and how can you download them on your iPod? Well, there are many options for you to choose from. The simplest option is to purchase music videos, Pixar short films, or select TV episodes via iTunes 6. iTunes music store has more than 3000 music videos covering almost all the artists from all the genres and select popular TV shows from ABC, MTV, ESPN etc. You have an option of browsing, previewing and in case if you like them, downloading it for $1.99. Having downloaded the 'no advertisements' iPod videos, you can then share it with friends or burn it on a CD.
