Just wondering...
Some have said that you must partition a DATA side (for USB Mass Storage capability) and an iTunes capable MUSIC side (for mp3 playback).
Couple of questions that maybe ppl who have the iPod Shuffle can answer for me:
1) Say I have some mp3s and I don't use iTunes.
Can I place those mp3s into the MUSIC partition side of the iPod Shuffle without first loading my mp3s to iTunes and still have it play in the iPod Shuffle?
2) If I am reading what others are saying correctly, if I were to put a mp3 into the DATA partition side, it will not play on the iPod Shuffle. Is that correct?
3) Also, has Apple configured the MUSIC partition side to only be able to play music from any iTunes library or just from 1 computer's library?
TIA!
